On June 12, 2024, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) published the Federal Register notice announcing review of the 2018 Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) Manual for possible revision in 2028. As former DCSS President Lynda McLaughlin noted on LinkedIn, "this is your chance to help shape how federal agencies collect and classify occupations. The review committee is especially interested in comments on STEM and care worker occupations."
Comments should be submitted by August 12. See the complete notice online.
