Abstract

The European Common Market Commission has estimated the percentage of the total working population in the E.E.C. engaged in transport at about 6 per cent, but this figure only includes carriers for hire or reward. When adjustments were made for private transport, and if subsidiary transport activities, such as railway construction and maintenance, were included, the figure was 16 per cent of the total working population.53
