Script

Various segments of the national or international economy may be classified in numerous ways. Two of conventional classifications use the same term, sector, for their economy segments.
Depending on their ownership, enterprises can be divided in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors.
Depending on types of produced marketables, enterprises can be divided in stages of when the segment was historically launched.
The primary sector or the primary stage of the economy is the raw materials industry that extract from nature, renew, and pre-process those raw materials or substances such as agriculture and mining products that the manufacturing industry will further process to create those goods and services that can be eventually consumed by end-users.
The secondary sector groups those enterprises that manufacture physical goods to be eventually consumed by end-users.
The tertiary sector groups those enterprises that produce physical, non-digital services such as retail, tourism, traditional banking, entertainment, etc.
The quaternary sector may unite the information technology industry and those those enterprises that do research and design new products.
No one classification is ideal. On the one hand, some can argue that the humanity historically launched the nonprofit sector first, followed by the public sector with the rise of royal states, and, eventually, the private sector. On another hand, one enterprise may produce a variety of products that may belong to different types. The concept of industries has been created to classify enterprises, and, therefore, employers, more specifically.
