Abstract
The development of the service industries is a recent and prominent trend in advanced nations. In the case of Japan too, this trend first became more or less visible during the 1960's. It took the form of a gradual shift of employment in both absolute numbers and in relative percentages to the service sector. However, the influence exerted by this trend differs according to the specific type of business within the service sector. Therefore, in this paper I intend to clarify the influence not merely of major groups, but also of subgroups as well; and at the same time to analyze the characteristics of Japan's service industries through an international comparison.
