Best Answer

The majority of occupations in Switzerland are in the secondary and tertiary sectors (production and service sectors). Only 3.7% of the population now work in agriculture, compared to 72% in the tertiary (service) sector. The main areas of employment are retail/trade, health and education systems as well as banking and insurance.

The secondary (manufacturing) sector is mainly made up of machine industry and food industry (with companies such as ABB and Nestle).
