Research Subject - 359.677-030 - Host/Hostess, Head - 349.677-014 - Parlor Chaperone - 352.667-014 - Chaperone - 359.667-010 - Occasional Handling and No Fingering

We used the SCO and the aptitudes for dexterity to show that there really are not a significant number of jobs for a person limited to light work (six hours of standing/walking), occasional handling, and no fingering. There is more than one way to tackle the problem. We look at research subject (DOT 359.677-030), head host/hostess (DOT 349.667-014), parlor chaperone (DOT 352.667-014), and chaperone (DOT 359.667-010) without the benefit of the O*Net or Occupational Requirements Survey.

Research subject (DOT 359.677-030), head host/hostess (DOT 349.667-014), parlor chaperone (DOT 352.667-014), and chaperon (DOT 359.667-010) belong to personal care and service workers, all other (SOC 39-9099) The O*Net does not address personal care and service workers, all other; the code ends with a "9" and is an "all other" group. The Occupational Requirements Survey data as December 1, 2018, does not address personal care and service workers, all other. We can check the OOH to determine aggregate job numbers and the typical education/training.

Incumbents have at least some college in 60.8% of jobs. The OOH reports high school diploma or equivalent and that is the largest single educational category at 30% of incumbents.  Some educational reporting signifies workers having employment below their educational level or variance in the market.  The DOT codes in the group tend to show variance

The DOT codes within personal care and service workers, all other, list seven unskilled, seven semi-skilled SVP 3, one semi-skilled SVP 4, and three skilled SVP 5.

The Occupational Employment Statistics estimates the occupational group at 56,820.  This report has significant variance from the employment projections reported by the OOH.  The 2016 OES data is similar to the 2017 data, 54,520 jobs.  The 2015 OES data reported 57,140.  OES and EP do vary in some occupations in terms of counting and this may be the explanation for the ongoing variance seen in this occupation.

I found eight cases addressing house sitter.
I found one case addressing host/hostess, dance hall.
I found 14 cases addressing host/hostess, head.
I found two cases addressing parlor chaperone.
I found two cases addressing escort.
I found one case addressing chaperon.
I found one case addressing research subject.

These are not often cited occupations and can be problematic because of the lack of statistical data.
