metadata.value: The paper considers changes in the structure of employment by skill level in countries. Differences
  in dynamics of the shares of employed with high, medium and low skill levels is traditionally
  explained by differences in exposure to routine-biased technologies, participation
  in international trade, exposure to offshoring in the country. The current paper contributes
  to the literature about the drivers and determinants of changes in structure of employment by
  skill level considering the industrial structure to be the one of main factors. We assume that
  the dynamics of employees with high, medium and low skill levels depends on the shares of
  agriculture, manufacturing and service in the economy. Service industry has the largest share
  of employment; it is highly competitive and prone to the growing influence of large scale technologies.
  Using the data of 218 countries for the period 1989–2019 we prove that the greater
  the service industry in the economy, the higher the share of employed in high skill occupations
  in absolute value and relative to the share of employed in medium skill occupations. The
  faster the growth of service industry, the higher the growth rate of the number of employed in
  medium and high skill occupations. The share of manufacturing in GDP, the value of GDP per
  capita are the significant determinants of the dependent variables. We highlight substantial
  differences in the models of the structure of employment by skill level and its dynamics in the
  developed and developing countries, the oil exporting countries. The research results make it
  possible to identify and explain trends in structure of employment by skill level by the peculiarities
  of production in economy.
