Fig. 3: Skill distributions over Chinese occupations.
From: Developing China’s workforce skill taxonomy reveals extent of labor market polarization
a The Alluvial Diagram indicates the degree to which the occupational groups depend on different skill sets. We aggregate the skill taxonomy into the 6 major occupational groups, and 15 skill sets defined by the O*NET. The thickness of the line is proportional to the aggregated values of skill importance. b The frequency distribution shows skill distributions across all 353 Chinese occupations. The vertical red line describes the average numbers of skills that are required by Chinese workers. c The box-plot shows the numbers of skills that are important to the six major occupation groups; the red line shows the corresponding employment shares.
