The two pie charts give information about the percentages of staff employed by age in the public sector in the UK from 2015 to 2020.
Overall, a significant difference can be seen in 2015, when the working age under 21 years old was
relatively low. In 2020, the age range of 31 to 40 is the lowest compared to the remaining periods. While
workers from 21 to 30 years old accounted for the highest number between 2015 and 2020.
First, employees aged 21 to 30 and over 50 accounted for an equal proportion in 2015, then the group of

The two pie charts give information about the percentages of staff employed by age in the public sector in the UK from 2015 to 2020.
It is clear that, we can see the lowest rates of the tow pie charts fall in the age group under 21 years old
in 2015 and from 31 to 40 years old in 2020. While workers aged 21 to 30 accounted for the highest
number in the UK between 2015 and 2020.
First, employees aged 21 to 30 and over 50 accounted for an equal proportion in 2015, but the group of
employees aged 21 to 30 had a change in 2020, increasing by a tenth compared to 2015. Next, the
proportion of employees aged 41 to 50 climbed from 19% in 2015 to 28% in 2020.
The group of people under 21 years old decreased slightly by 2% in 2020 from 14% to 12%.
