The ORS describes the incidence of work at the various ranges of exertion. Despite the number of DOT codes representing half or nearly half of the occupations in the group, our growing chorus of rejection of equal distribution tells us that light work probably doesn't make up half the jobs.

The rest is math.
1,443,200 x 86.5% (unskilled) x 23.1% (light) = 288,373That is the starting point for analysis of the number of housekeeping cleaners are available to a particular claimant. If the claimant is limited to short demonstration, the math is:
2,384,600 x 5.9% (SVP 1) x 23.1% (light) = 19,669A slight limitation in the ability to engage in prolonged standing/walking in an eight-hour day will start to erase the number of jobs.
Series ID: ORUP1000062300001004
Not seasonally adjusted
Series Title: maids and housekeeping cleaners; % of day standing/walking is required (10th percentile)
Requirement: Physical Demands
Occupation: maids and housekeeping cleaners
Estimate: % of day standing/walking is required (10th percentile)
| Year | Period | Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| 2017 | Annual | 86.7 |
That estimate puts full-time housekeeping cleaners at 6.9 hours of standing/walking in a work day. Contact with others, work pace, and other factors will reduce the number of jobs.
The point is pedestrian. The number of jobs estimated by the Department of Labor in the OOH or in the Occupational Employment Statistics are subject to dissection with the skill and exertional levels designated in the ORS. The methodology is one of erosion -- whittling away at the occupational base one characteristic at a time.
