Taxonomy of occupations

The taxonomy of occupations is a system that organizes and categorizes different jobs based on their similarities in tasks, skills, and responsibilities. It helps to classify occupations into groups or levels, making it easier to understand and analyze the workforce. For example, jobs can be grouped by industry (healthcare, education), skill level (entry, skilled, professional), or specialization. This organized approach aids employers, educators, and policymakers in planning workforce development, career guidance, and research by providing a clear structure of how various occupations relate to one another.
