Describe the information shown to a university/college lecturer.
Sample Answer 2:
The graphs present data about working hours of different professionals and the percentage of employees experience stress-related issues. Overall, businessmen work longer hours on an average and the stress-related illness among teachers are highest.

As is presented in the bar graph, businessmen work 70 hours per week, the highest, among the average working hours of given professionals. Movie producers work 60 hours per week, which is the second highest. The third longest working hours per weeks are for Doctors and they work more than 50 hours per week. Writers, programmers, lawyers and chefs work 47, 40, 37 and 30 hours per week consecutively. The least working hours are for lecturers, 28 hours a week.

Interestingly, though the lecturers work fewer hours per week than other professionals, their stress-related sickness is higher than other experts. On an average, one-fourth teachers have this problem. Movie producers and doctors have 18 and 15 percentage anxiety issues consecutively. Though businessmen work longer hours a week, their percentage of stress-related ailment is only 10%, lesser than the lecturers, movie producers and doctors. Programmers, writer and lawyers suffer this issue less than 10% of the total.
