Best Answer

There is no single main occupation, but these days, most people in Wales work in retail, the service sector (i.e. banking, insurance, mains services, local Government etc.), agriculture, and manufacturing, especially in high-tech industries such as computer manufacture, specialist electronic components, aerospace and so on.

There also remains some heavy industry in the South West, including a huge steelworks at Port Talbot in Galmorgan, opencast mining, and oil refineries in South Pembrokeshire.

Tourism employs a minority of people, but it is not a central part of the Welsh economy.
