Tuesday night’s census updates the list of occupations by adding dozens of new job categories and axing some existing ones, according to multiple reports.
Among the occupations newly listed for the first time are content creators and outdoor adventure leaders. The outlets also report that print journalists are among the roles removed from the census occupation classification. The coverage describes these changes as part of a broader refresh to better reflect how work is currently defined and categorized.
While the reports focus on different examples, they align on the core point: the census occupation list is being revised for the next release, with multiple occupations added and several cut, including print journalism. The outlets do not present a unified list of every added or removed occupation, but they treat the update as a significant adjustment affecting how occupations will be recorded in census data going forward.
