Abstract:

This file contains Swedish Occupational Titles as encountered by the CEDAR project, that were coded into HISCO (see notes and http://www.cedar.umu.se/english/?languageId=1). The occupations originate from documents from c 1700 – c 1950 for Skellefteå region and C 1700-1900 for Sundsvall, Linköping, Northern Inland, and C 1900-1950 for Umeå region. The overarching Swedish regions are thus Skellefteå, Umeå, Northern Inland, Linköping, Sundsvall.

Notes:

CEDAR made revisions on the old HISCO during last year. As you know, it can be difficult to give only one title to some occupations as there can be multiple options. We have decided to create two HISCO-tables; one where we have decided on an occupation if there is more than one option. For example; the Swedish occupation ADJUNKT can either be a school teacher or a minister. We decided on one of these that we think is more correct than the other instead of giving an option in the simple table. The other table is a complex one where an occupation can have more than one HISCO. The case of ADJUNKT will get two HISCO's and it's up to the users to decide which one they want to use. This work is left to be done, though. While working on that project, we will also create the STATUS, PRODUCT and RELATION codes. I've also added a few comments to your list below. I attached a text file that contains occupations as standardized titles and their HISCO code.
