Social division of labor is the basis of occupational classification. In every link of the division of labor system, labor objects, labor tools and labor expenditure forms have their own particularity, which determines the differences among various occupations.
Different countries in the world have different national conditions, and the standards for dividing occupations are also different.
According to the theory put forward by some scholars in western countries, foreign occupations are generally divided into the following categories:
(1) According to the nature and level of mental and manual labor. This classification divides employees into two categories: white-collar workers and blue-collar workers. White-collar workers include: professional and technical posts, managers and administrators outside the farm, salespeople and office workers. Blue-collar workers include craftsmen and similar workers, non-transport technicians, transport equipment workers, off-farm workers and service workers. This classification method clearly shows the hierarchy of occupations.
(2) Classification according to individual psychological differences. This classification method is based on the "personality-occupation" type matching theory founded by Holland, a famous American career guidance expert, and divides personality types into six types, namely, realistic type, research type, artistic type, social type, career type and routine type. Corresponding to it are six types of occupations.
