Compare Areas If Growth or Decline in the Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Classifications of Business Activities

M2 compare areas if growth or decline in the primary, secondary and tertiary classifications of business activities.

In this task I will explain how there has been change in the primary, secondary and tertiary sectors.

The primary sector extracts raw materials from the land, sea and air. Examples from this sector are: farmer, fishing, lumberjack, oil, coal mining and gold mining. The primary sector has gone because machines took over most of the things people do at a factory or at a farm. If you look back at the old days people had to do everything with their own hands, but now they have all kinds of machines to do all that work for them, and that’s why many people don’t have work. That’s one of the reasons, and another reason is that many people don’t want to work as a farmer or in a factory, people now choose what they want to be in their future.

The secondary sector transforms the raw materials into finished goods that are ready to be sold to the businesses. Examples from this sector are: book publisher, biscuit factory, clothes mill, car plant and brewery. The reason why the secondary sector decline in the UK, is because the products who are made in low- and middle-income countries are a lot cheaper than here in the UK, In those countries the people who make those products are paid lesser than the people in the UK. In the UK we have the National Minimum Wage, to help the people who work in the factory or etc, getting paid fairly, another reason is that working in this sector is that the health care and safety isn’t as great as it should be, they breath in the smoke that isn’t good for them, and they can cut their hands if they don’t watch out.

The tertiary sector is responsible for selling goods, and providing services, for customers. Examples for this sector are: supermarkets, clothes shop, banks, restaurant/food, schools, museums/galleries,
