OCCUPATIONS, PROFESSIONS, TRADES

An occupation is an activity of any kind for which a person has the necessary qualification and training. If you have to fill in an official form in Britain you will usually find the reading “Occupation”, and if you are interviewed by an official he may ask you: “What’s your occupation?” If he already has a general idea of the kind of work you do - whether you are a professional worker, a technician, a skilled, semi-skilled or unskilled manual worker — he may ask more specifically: “What’s your profession?”, “What’s your trade?” or “What’s your job?” In ordinary everyday conversation, a person who wants to know someone’s occupation will simply ask: “What’s your job?”, “What do you do for a living?”, “What’s Mr. Jones?”, “What does Steve do?”

There are three main groups of occupations: professions, trades, jobs.

Traditionally, profession is an occupation which requires mainly intellectual work and long a period of higher education at a university or an academy. Thus, we speak of the medical profession, the teaching profession, the profession of an engineer and so on.

A trade is an occupation which demands a high level of manual skill and a certain period of practical and theoretical training* Mechanics, electricians, fitters, turners,tailors, weavers, hairdressers, etc. have learned a trade* Many occupations are neither trades nor professions. We often call these occupations "jobs”. In this sense, the term job includes both unskilled and semi-skilled manual occupations on the one hand and occupations which require considerable knowledge and mental skills on the other hand* The dividing lines between trades, jobs and professions are by no means always clear.
