Classification scope

DETE uses SOC 2010 unit-group codes in the Critical Skills Occupations List and the Ineligible List of Occupations. The code is central to occupation eligibility, but it does not by itself determine a permit outcome; current list wording, job duties, salary, qualifications, employer and permit route also matter.
