In more developed countries, a higher percentage of workers are employed in services because these countries have a highly industrialised and urbanised economy. As agriculture and manufacturing become more efficient, fewer workers are needed in these sectors, and many people move into tertiary activities such as banking, insurance, education, health, transport, communication, trade and tourism. Higher incomes and better living standards also increase demand for such services. For example, in countries like the USA, the UK and Japan, most workers are engaged in services rather than in farming or industry.
