NOTES
The 1998 Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) System was
developed by the Federal Government in response to a growing need for a
universal occupational classification system.
The SOC is being adopted by all Federal agencies and consists of 821
detailed occupations, grouped into 449 broad occupations, 96 minor groups,
and 23 major groups.
This table does not include part-time employees, while table
3-21 includes salaries of part-time employees.
