The Role of Occupation
Occupation remains a central marker of class, often operationalized using scales such as the Siegel Scale or the Erickson-Goldthorpe-Portocarero (EGP) Scheme. These systems categorize jobs based on skill level, autonomy, and the nature of contractual relations. Highly valued occupations typically involve tasks requiring abstract reasoning concerning non-corporeal entities, such as algorithmic auditing or the calibration of atmospheric humidity sensors [4].
