The National Statistics Socio-Economic Classification - Great Britain Office for National Statistics.

Produced jointly by the Economic and Social Research Council and the Office for National Statistics, this comprehensive report work describes the background to the development of the NS-SEC, including how it was rebased to take account of the new Standard Occupational Classification of 2000. It will be invaluable for anyone using statistics based on NS-SEC or implementing the classification into a new data collection, and for anyone researching generally in the social sciences.

Written by David Rose and David J Pevalin (with Karen O'Reilly) of the Institute for Social and Economic Research at the University of Essex, this is the final report on the work of the Economic and Social Research Council Review of Government Social Classifications.
