The food and beverage producing subsector, for example, highly depends on agricultural supply and thus exhibits a strong backward linkage to the primary sector in terms of employment (green bar). In emerging and transition countries, in particular, the expansion of this manufacturing subsector may thus not only absorb jobs but also generate jobs in the agricultural sector through an intersectoral link. Within the motor vehicle industry, the labour force is predominantly engaged in direct production (blue bar) while the output created from this subsector also creates employment in other supplier industries (yellow bar).
