Answer: A

Explanation:

Agriculture and tourism are normally associated with high levels of seasonal employment, and hence to some extent, unemployment.

Construction also often has an element of seasonality. For example, there is a saying in Alaska: ‘there are two seasons – winter and construction’, although in some less extreme climates construction carries on year-round.

In most situations, we normally expect police employment levels to be relatively consistent through-out the year.
