In view of the lowering of the threshold for the job registration requirement on 1 January 2020, the Swiss Standard Classification of Occupations 2000 (SSCO 2000) was overhauled by the Federal Statistical Office (FSO) in collaboration with the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) and the industry associations. The Swiss Standard Classification of Occupations CH-ISCO-19 will now form the basis for determining which occupations need to be registered.
