Description

This work describes in detail the development of the NS-SEC, the UK government standard classification system, including the rebasing following changes to the Standard Occupation Classification in 2000. It will be invaluable for anyone using statistics based on NS-SEC or implementing the system into a new data collection, and for anyone researching generally in the social sciences.
