This paper describes the changes in the industry and occupation classification systems used in the 1990 Census of Population and Housing (1990 Census) and the classification systems used in Census 2000. As a result of these changes, many 2000 industry detailed categories and major groups and most 2000 occupation detailed categories and major groups are not comparable to similar categories and groupings in the 1990 and earlier censuses.
