40. Primary Occupation Coding Guidelines A worker should be assigned to an SOC occupation code based on work performed. When workers in a single job could be coded in more than one occupation, they should be coded in the occupation that requires the highest level of skill. If there is no measurable difference in skill requirements, workers should be coded in the occupation in which they spend the most time. Workers whose job is to teach at different levels (e.g., elementary, middle, or secondary) should be coded in the occupation corresponding to the highest educational level they teach. Workers who perform activities not described in any distinct detailed occupation in the SOC structure should be coded in an appropriate All Other or residual occupation. In LASER, tasks for a specific occupation are on the Occupation Details tab.
