HISCO

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, the model complements the ILO's ISCO68 scheme, as it prescribes a universal code system for examining occupation descriptions.
