This is an exact photographic reprint of the entire 655-page Department of Labor Selected Characteristics of Occupations Defined in the Revised Dictionary of Occupational Titles (SCO) published by the United States Government Printing Office in 1993.

Our edition is three-hole punched and sent to you with a nice three-ring binder. We include our custom decoder card that makes sense of long columns of numbers and letters. Take pages out for easy copying, scanning, and use at hearings.

The SCO provides additional data not found in the two volumes of the DOT. In addition to the DOT codes and Guide for Occupational Information Group codes, the SCO provides the following:

Physical Demands
  • St Strength
  • Cl Climbing
  • Ba Balancing
  • St Stooping
  • Kn Kneeling
  • Co Crouching
  • Cw Crawling
  • Re Reaching
  • Ha Handling
  • Fi Fingering
  • Fe Feeling
  • Ta Talking
  • He Hearing
  • Ts Taste/Smell
  • NA Near Acuity
  • FA Far Acuity
  • DP Depth Perception
  • Ac Accommodation
  • CV Color Vision
  • FV Field of Vision

Environmental Demands

  • We Exposure to Weather
  • Co Extreme Cold
  • Ho Extreme Heat
  • Hu Wet and/or Humid
  • No Noise Intensity Level
  • Vi Vibration
  • AC Atmospheric Conditions
  • MP Proximity to Moving Mechanical Parts
  • ES Exposure to Electric Shock
  • HE Working in High Exposed Places
  • Ra Exposure to Radiation
  • Ex Working with Explosives
  • TC Exposure to Toxic or Caustic Chemicals
  • Ot Other Environmental Conditions


These data are arranged in the SCO in long columns of rows of letters and numbers. The decoder card we created allows the user to instantly decipher and explain these codes.

The Social Security Administration takes notice of the SCO and the DOT, it does not take notice of any of the commercial sources vocational experts bring to hearings. Be prepared with your own copy of the SCO. This is a must-have for anyone working in Social Security disability law or immigration law!
