Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Descriptions of Occupations: Street Railways
Each occupation has been described under the most generally accepted title. The descriptions have been carefully prepared with the view of stating clearly and brie?y what each occupation requires in the way of performance and qualifications, so that a foreman or employment manager can readily specify the help wanted and can pick the worker best fitted to fill the position.
Without such standard definitions advertisements and appeals from the various Government departments or from a central employment agency would lose their effectiveness, especially when the recruiting is Nation wide.
The statement of actual requirements under the heading of schooling does not have reference to those already working, but should be interpreted to mean that no one should enter the specified position at the present time without having the equivalent of the stated schooling. Common school signifies the completion of the common school course.
