ISCO is a tool for organizing jobs into a clearly defined set of groups according to the tasks and duties undertaken in the job. Its main aims are to provide: 
* a basis for the international reporting, comparison and exchange of statistical and administrative data about occupations; 
* a model for the development of national and regional classifications of occupations; and 
* a system that can be used directly in countries that have not developed their own national classifications.
