Answer to Question 1

Occupations are categories of jobs that involve similar activities at
different work sites. Historically, occupations were classified as bluecollar
workers, who were primarily factory and craft workers who did
manual labor, and white-collar workers, who were office workers and
professionals. Sociologists establish broad occupational categories by
distinguishing between employment in the primary labor market and in
the secondary labor market. The primary labor market consists of highpaying
jobs with good benefits that have some degree of security and the
possibility of future advancement.
By contrast, the secondary labor market consists of low-paying jobs with few benefits and
very little job security or possibility for future advancement. According to sociologist Steven
Brint, the contemporary professional middle class includes most doctors, natural scientists,
engineers, computer scientists, certified public accountants, economists, social scientists,
psychotherapists, lawyers, professors, and some artists and writers.
