HISCO

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Historical International Standard of Classification of Occupations or HISCO is a theoretical model used to code social class and occupational status.[1] Formulated in 2002,[2] the model complements the ILO's ISCO68 scheme, as it prescribes a universal code system for examining occupation descriptions.[3] The book received a positive review in the Journal of Social History.[4]
