ISCO-08 in statistics and surveys
How labour force surveys, censuses, and employment statistics use ISCO-08, and what a published figure can and cannot show.
- How are employment statistics grouped with ISCO-08?
How employment counts are aggregated through the ISCO-08 hierarchy from the ILO, from detailed unit groups up to broad major groups.
- How are gender and occupation statistics built with ISCO-08?
How gender and occupation tables are built by crossing ISCO-08 groups from the ILO with gender data, and how to read segregation patterns carefully.
- How are migrant worker statistics built with ISCO-08?
How migrant worker tables combine ISCO-08 occupation groups from the ILO with migration related variables, and where comparability breaks down.
- How are occupational shortages discussed with ISCO-08?
How ISCO-08 groups from the ILO give shortage debates a shared occupation language, and why an occupation count alone cannot prove a shortage.
- How do censuses use ISCO-08?
How a census applies ISCO-08 from the ILO to occupation answers across a whole population, and what that wide coverage makes possible and difficult.
- How do labour force surveys use ISCO-08?
How labour force surveys turn answers about work into ISCO-08 groups from the ILO, and why the coding step shapes what the published tables can show.
- How do time series handle a classification change?
How a time series is kept readable when ISCO-08 from the ILO replaces an earlier classification, using bridging, dual coding and clear breaks.
- What can an ISCO-08 figure not show?
The limits of an ISCO-08 figure from the ILO classification, including pay, job quality, skill use and the variety hidden inside each group.
- What can an ISCO-08 figure show about an economy?
What a published ISCO-08 figure from the ILO classification can reveal about occupational structure, and how to read it without overstating it.
