First, as of2000, in extractive industries such as agriculture, forestry, fishing and quarrying, 32.1 percent of all occupations wereagriculture and fishing related. Likewise, in secondary industries such as construction, public utilities, andmanufacturing, there was a predominant occupational group –craft and related trades, machine operators, andelementary operators and laborers.Certain tertiary industries such as health, education, business and computer activities, and transportation andcommunication, require technicians, associate professionals, and administrative support. High percentages arerecorded in these industries by occupations for technicians, associate professionals, and administrative support. Oneparticular industry, often defined as a quaternary industry – tourism-related, such as hotels, restaurants and bars – found60.6 percent of its employees in the services occupation.Table 10.4: Industry by Occupation, Chuuk State: 1994 and 20001994 2000Executive Technic.

All other occupations experienced negative changes with the biggest loss in agricultureand fishing workers (- 69.6 percent). A particular reason may be that in the early 1990s Ting Hong fishing companywas operating in Chuuk, and its employment was reported in the 1994 Census. However, in the late 1990s, Ting Hongwas no longer operating in Chuuk, and its employment of fishing workers plummeted.94 Chuuk Branch Statistics Office, Division of Statistics, FSM Department of Economic Affairs

Exceedingly high percentages of males were found in certain occupations – 95.6 percent asagriculture and fishing workers, 94.1 percent as machine operators, 93.4 percent as craft and related workers, and 92.7percent as executives and managers. The only occupation in which females were in the majority was administrativesupport (26.4 percent males and 73.6 percent females).However, when 1994 and 2000 percentages are compared, there is some evidence of women’s equity and viableopportunities in the work force. Although four of 9 occupational groups increased for males percentage-wise, the fiveremaining groups in which women gained more employability increased as well. They are as follows: professionals(31.percent in 1994 up to 38.1percent in 2000), as administrative support (71.4 percent in 1994 up to 73.6 percent in2000), as agriculture and fishing workers (1.2 percent in 1994 up to 4.1percent in 2000), as machine operators(3.5percent in 1994 up to 5.9percent in 2000), and as elementary occupations and laborers (10.2percent in 1994 up to16.7percent in 2000).Table 10.6: Occupations of Current Work Force for Aged 15 Years and Over Who Worked in 5 Years Previous to Census by Sex, Chuuk State: 1994 and 20001994 2000Number Percent Number PercentOccupation Total Males Females Total Males Females Total Males Females Total Males FemalesCurrent formal workforce 15+ years 5,373 3,828 1,545 100.0 71.2 28.8 4,546 3,261 1,285 100.0 71.7 28.3Executive and managers 393 344 49 100.0 87.5 12.5 453 420 33 100.0 92.7 7.3Professionals 778 530 248 100.0 68.1 31.9 1,165 721 444 100.0 61.9 38.1Technical and associate professionals 1,046 767 279 100.0 73.3 26.7 575 426 149 100.0 74.1 25.9Administrative support 829 237 592 100.0 28.6 71.4 523 138 385 100.0 26.4 73.6Service workers 868 618 250 100.0 71.2 28.8 776 610 166 100.0 78.6 21.4Agric. and fishing workers 161 159 2 100.0 98.8 1.2 49 47 2 100.0 95.9 4.1Craft and related workers 444 385 59 100.0 86.7 13.3 304 284 20 100.0 93.4 6.6Machine operators 314 303 11 100.0 96.5 3.5 289 272 17 100.0 94.1 5.9Elementary occupations and laborers 539 484 55 100.0 89.8 10.2 412 343 69 100.0 83.3 16.7Armed Forces … … - … … - - - - - - -Source: 1994 FSM Census, Table P28; 2000 FSM Census, Table P2-16.Table 10.7 presents occupational data by age group in 1994 and 2000, and the most outstanding finding is that thelargest percentages in most occupations were found in the older age groups, especially 35 years and older.Nevertheless, the age group 25-34 years predominated agriculture and fishing workers in 2000, and administrativesupport, agriculture and fishing workers and elementary occupations and laborers in 1994.If the two highest percentages in each occupation (excluding armed forces) are added together as one age group, then in1994 the workers 25-34 years were high in six occupational groups (except executives and managers, professionals,and technical and associate professionals) and the workers 35-44 years were high in eight occupational groups (exceptcraft and related workers and elementary occupations and laborers). In 2000, the workers 25-34 years were high inonly five occupational groups (except executives and managers, professionals, technical and associate professionals,and craft and related workers), and the workers 35-44 years were still high in nine occupational groups (exceptagriculture and fishing workers and administrative support). Also, in 2000, the workers 45-64 years were high in fiveoccupational groups (except administrative support, service workers, agriculture and fishing workers, and machineworkers). Surprisingly, in 1994, the workers 15-24 years were high in agriculture and fishing workers as opposed to65+ in 2000. It would appear that agriculture and fishing occupations lost favor among the younger workers, and wereleft to the very oldest workers.Chuuk Branch Statistics Office, Division of Statistics, FSM Department of Economic Affairs 95
