For America and Europe, the need for labor to move out of manufacturing is compounded by shifting comparative advantage not only is the total number of manufacturing jobs limited globally, but a smaller share of those jobs will be local.

Service sector employment is sometimes viewed as more desirable than manufacturing since jobs in the service sector are seen to have higher status.

For starters, technology is making even many service jobs tradable, enabling them to be offshored to Asia and other emerging markets. And, eventually, technology will replace manufacturing and service jobs in emerging markets as well.

After globalization made it easier to move manufacturing and service jobs from rich to poor countries, growing automation now threatens to move jobs from humans to robots. A recent paper by two Oxford University economists estimates that up to 47 of all jobs in the US are at risk.

It is indispensable to pool public and private resources in the non oil productive sector, to create jobs in sectors such as tourism, manufacturing, agro industry and construction.

So, from the perspective of jobs, pay and prosperity, and against the backdrop of Brexit, rising cost of living and chronic manufacturing decline, the east end of Glasgow desperately needs a thriving manufacturing presence at McVitie's.

276. Its greatest impact has been in generating foreign exchange and creating jobs in the different regions of the country, and indirectly in the agricultural, crafts and manufacturing sectors, through the generation of jobs and consumption of the output of those sectors (Fundapec, 1992).

Why this explosion of concern? After all, advanced countries have been losing manufacturing jobs to less developed countries for more than fifty years.

The manufacturing sector, primarily the watch industry, lost another 50 jobs in fiscal year 2003, after the largest employer and the second largest watch exporter closed operations in December 2002.

At the same time, no new jobs were created in the rest of the economy. On the contrary, employment outside manufacturing and trade declined, so that the economy as a whole suffered a net loss of 1.26 million full time equivalent jobs.

Mankiw s comments come as the president struggles to shore up support in manufacturing states that have lost millions of jobs....Mankiw s conclusions may prove discordant during an election year...

Employment in manufacturing

The key force driving this trend technology is playing multiple roles. The replacement of routine manual jobs by machines and robots is a powerful, continuing, and perhaps accelerating trend in manufacturing and logistics, while networks of computers are replacing routine white collar jobs in information processing.

Real wage costs in manufacturing

For example, in the automobile industry, engine manufacturing has been located in one country and transmission manufacturing in another.

Process modification in adipic acid manufacturing

Value added per worker in manufacturing

Unfortunately for advanced economies, the gains in per capita value added in the tradable sector were not large enough to overcome the effect of moving labor from manufacturing jobs to non tradable service jobs (many of which existed only because of credit fueled domestic demand in the halcyon days before 2008). Hence the muted overall productivity gains.

Growth in shale energy will mean more investment, production, and jobs in the energy sector itself. Lower gas prices will boost manufacturing production, particularly in downstream industries like petrochemicals and primary metals that use natural gas as fuel and feedstock.

The globalizing of production processes, including services production, offshoring and the perceived movement of both manufacturing and services jobs from developed to developing nations is an issue of interest to policymakers.

FDI is negligible in primary activities and low in manufacturing.

Already, services contribute the bulk of GDP in developing countries, even in low income countries where agriculture has traditionally played a big part. Young workers who leave the farm for the cities are increasingly absorbed into urban services jobs instead of manufacturing.

A better approach would entail creating high quality jobs in modern service industries. As it stands, while the services sector accounts for more than 70 of employment in South Korea, its productivity growth rate remains much lower than that of the manufacturing sector.

Unfortunately, without infrastructure, the 800 million plus Indians who have not yet made it don t have a chance. India will never be able to create enough jobs in services alone it must be able to compete in low end manufacturing areas as well.

Jobs for whom? Especially jobs for young men.

(d) Illicit manufacturing the manufacturing or assembly of firearms, ammunition and other related materials

Fewer than 10 of African workers find jobs in manufacturing, and among those only a tiny fraction as low as one tenth are employed in modern, formal firms with adequate technology. Distressingly, there has been very little improvement in this regard, despite high growth rates.
