While employment in Italy was equally distributed among the three main sectors, agriculture, industry, and service in 1960, recent figures show a different scenario. In 2019, 73.5 percent of people working in Italy were employed in the service sector. The share of employees in the agricultural and industrial sector decreased over the years. In 1960, some 33 percent of employed individuals in Italy were working with agriculture. In 2019, approximately four percent of the working population belonged to this sector.
