Atlas view showing how exposure changes once occupations are broken into pathway composition rather than country averages alone.

One country can have a similar overall exposure level to another while differing sharply in pathway mix once you look inside the aggregate.

One thing to know

The atlas is not just a world ranking.

It shows how exposure changes as you move from country averages into pathway, task, skill, and trade-facing layers.

The point is not only to see which countries are more exposed, but to see how that exposure is structured once you move beneath the country average.
