The calculator rounds and we end up with 13,000 jobs in the national economy that work in the general category of dishwashers that are unskilled and light.
If a claimant can perform the full range of unskilled light work and is under the age of 55 (at least literate and able to communicate in English), that person is not disabled. The other data in the ORS confirms what we would logically expect, dishwashers are on their feet 90% of the day at the 10th percentile and 100% of the day at higher reported percentiles.
