Divorce by occupation at the time of divorce
Table F (page xvi) provides information on husbands and wives who specified their occupation at the time of divorce by population group. It is observed that 25 467 (80,2%) husbands (males) specified their occupation at the time of divorce, while only 6 301 (19,8%) did not specify. A total of 23 135 (72,8%) wives (females) specified their occupation at the time of divorce, while 8 633 (27,2%) did not specify. From this information, we can deduce that for a large number of couples, both partners specified their occupation at the time of divorce. Across all population groups, a higher percentage of husbands specified their occupation at the time of divorce than wives. The distinction by population group indicates the highest percentage of husbands and wives among white population group as having specified their occupation (85,0% for husbands and 77,0% for wives). Tables 2.12.1 to 2.12.6, 2.13.1 to 2.13.6 and 2.14 provide more information on occupation and population group.
Minor children involved in divorce
Divorce may have a profound effect, not only on the living arrangements of minor children, but also on their socio-economic and psychosocial well-being. A total of 29 597 minor children were involved in registered divorces in 2004, indicating a decrease in the number compared to the 2003 total of 34 400. Figure 13 (page xxiii) shows the breakdown of the number of minor children affected by divorce by population group. The white population group recorded the highest number of minor children involved (10 363), which represented a decrease from the 2003 figure (11 986), followed by African (8 686), coloured (3 955), Indian/Asian (1 711) and ‘mixed’ (458) population groups. The number of minor children whose parents’ population group was not specified was 4 424. Tables 2.15.1 to 2.15.6 provide information on number of minor children involved by duration of marriage and population group.
