Final Federal Register Notice about the 2010 Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) [21 January 2009]
http://www.bls.gov/soc/soc2010final.pdf
[excerpt]
The SOC is designed to reflect the current occupational structure of the United States; it classifies all occupations in which work is performed for pay or profit. The SOC covers all jobs in the national economy, including occupations in the public, private, and military sectors. All Federal agencies that publish occupational data for statistical purposes are required to use the SOC; State and local government agencies are strongly encouraged to use this national system to promote a common language for categorizing and analyzing occupations.
