Is there any sort of recognised standard for grouping jobs into job sectors e.g. 'technology', 'emergency services'? I'm looking to use this in a program I'm working on.
Closest I can find is this, but I want to know if there's an official standard.
There is an international standard for job classifications, but not by ISO, it's by the International Labour Organization
