Help text
This is the proportion of all those in employment that are classified sales and customer service occupations (resident based). The Standard Occupational Classification (SOC2010) defines these as occupations that require a general education and a programme of work-based training related to Sales procedures. Some occupations require additional specific technical knowledge but are included in this major group because the primary task involves selling.

SOC2010 is maintained by the Classification and Harmonisation Unit (CHU) of the Office for National Statistics (ONS) and is designed to bring together groups of jobs which are similar in terms of the qualifications, training, skills and experience commonly associated with the competent performance of work tasks. It consists of nine major groups, 25 sub-major groups, 90 minor groups and 369 unit groups. Further information on SOC2010 can be obtained from http://www.ons.gov.uk/methodology/classificationsandstandards/standardoccupationalclassificationsoc/soc2010

Data are from the resident based analysis of the Annual Population Survey (APS) which is a continuous household survey, covering the UK with a sample size of approximately 320,000 respondents. The data sets consist of 12 months of survey data and are broken down on a quarterly basis.
