The expansion of services and the characteristics of tertiary activities
The services sector is a more important sector, it is the most important activity in
developed economies, in which it has greater weight, it exceeds 70% of the GDP of
employment (Anglo-Saxon countries) . In developed countries, on average, it exceeds
60%, as is the case in Spain.
Its importance has not always been the same. Services were formerly of little
relevance and did not bring wealth. This has been changing over the years, especially
from the 70s/80s to the present.
SE has become a sector where the concern for its efficiency and contribution of added
value and influence in the rest of the activities and in society has been a growing
concern because we now consider that services are important.
The welfare society is associated with the relevance of the service sector (health,
education...).
The new economy that is coined at the end of the 20th century. It is based on a great
boost to services, these are no longer only important in quantity, but also services
transform current economies and give them a different contribution in many ways:
productivity, competitiveness, efficiency, quality, well-being.
Concept: (There is no clear definition) Service activities are very heterogeneous, we
can talk about transport, hospitality, health, education, finance, commerce,
telecommunications, public administrations, sports...
A definition could be: Services are those heterogeneous activities , which cause a
change in the conditions of a person or a good belonging to an economic activity.
With a service a provision is made, a service is not produced.
Features:
- Services are a heterogeneous and complex set of activities and
professions.
- Each of them presents a different problem/behavior/structure.
