Correct Answer: Option B

Explanation

Occupation of workers refers to the specific jobs or roles that individuals hold within the labor market. While the occupation can affect employment rates and productivity, it does not directly influence the total number of economically active people. Therefore, this is not a determinant of the size of the economically active population.
