REPUBLIC OF CAMEROON Peace –Work –Fatherland --------------------------- MINISTRY OF PUBLIC WORKS NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF STATISTICS --------------------- --------------- KUMBA – MAMFE Road construction project __________ ----------------- DEVELOPMENT PROJECT FOR THE KUMBA-MAMFE ROAD MONITORING-EVALUATION OF THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC IMPACT **************************** GETTING THE BASELINE SITUATION DOCUMENT OF NOMENCLATURES August 2014 1 NOMENCLATURE OF EMPLOYMENTS, PROFESSIONS AND TRADES This nomenclature that aims at giving a picture of the labour market is used in household questionnaire through questions: ER6, ER14a and ER19, and also the employees form (O.06). This nomenclature picks up what the individual really does in his/her employment: his/her profession, trade, task or function. These notions must not be mistaken with the training of the individual. Watch out: These notions must not be confused with the training that the individual received. Example: A senior technician of telecommunication who carries out commercial activities is coded as a trader and not as a technician. It is important to make the difference between the levels of training and the function in the enterprise. An electricity technician in the enterprise is the one occupying that function in the enterprise. Take note here that he may not have the diploma of an electricity technician. This nomenclature is divided into 8 big items and is coded on 4 positions. Grouped Level (8 groups) Publication Level (22 sub groups) 1. Agriculture, breeding, forestry 11.

Agriculture, Breeding, Hunting and fischery This first group is subdivided into two sub-groups: 11. Agriculture ; 12. Breeding, Hunting and fischery. The codes of this first group go from: 1101 to 1109 for the sub-group « Agriculture »; 1201 to 1206 for the sub-group « Breeding, Hunting and fischery ». This group is made up of professions whose main task consists in practising agriculture to get product from agriculture, sylviculture (wood, charcoals), and fishery, in rearing or hunting animals, in fishing or fish breeding, in exploiting natural or planted forest. Products from this activity will be later on sold to buyers, to commercial bodies or on markets, or self consumed, offered or even lost. This group is made up of individuals who carry out agricultural activities regardless of their status, i.e. exercising as chief of exploitation, associated persons for exploitation, family helps, paid or unpaid person and agricultural labourers Particular case: Pambe man or woman (in the West region of Cameroon) is an own account worker, but is classified in the same item as an agricultural labourer who in return is wage earner (1106 is the code). 2. Members of the executive and legislative body, administrative authorities, managers and senior staff of enterprises, clergy This second group is subdivided in to four subgroups: 21- Members of the executive and legislative body; 22- Other administrative Authorities; 23- Managers and senior staff of enterprises; 24- Clergy member. The codes of this second group start from: 2101 to 2102 for the subgroup « Members of the executive and legislative body »; 2201 to 2205 for the subgroup « Other administrative Authorities »; 2301 to 2302 for the subgroup « Managers and senior staff of enterprises »; 2401 only for the sub group « Clergy member ». This group includes professions that consist in defining and formulating government policies, laws and rules, and in watching over the implementations, in representing the national government and acting on its behalf, or in preparing, orientating and coordinating the policy and activity of an enterprise or organisation or its departments and internal services. Furthermore, it includes people having a ministry in an approved church denomination having vowed to live a consecrated life. This group also contains people who give spiritual advises and conducts. They are not in this case from a particular approved church, or recognized as religious people. The group “Manager and senior staff of enterprises” (23), concerns only bosses. Own accounts workers should be coded in group 7 “craftmen and labourers”. For example, own accounts mechanics employing even more than 5 persons (family helps or apprentices) are classified as “craftmen and labourers of mechanics, electronics labourer of “hot and cold” (code 7106). The 3 notion of enterprise refers to the different types, private or public regardless of their sector of activity. Particular case: The witch-doctor like the magician/tradi-practitioner/traditional healer should be considered as craftsmen and labourers of other services (code 7205). 3. Liberal scientific and intellectual professions The third group is subdivided into three subgroups: 31- Liberal scientific and intellectual professions excluding those related to ICT and the Environment; 32- Liberal scientific and intellectual professions related to ICT; 33- Liberal scientific and intellectual professions related to the environment. The codes of this group start from: 3101 to 3106 for the subgroup « Liberal scientific and intellectual professions excluding those related to ICT and the Environment»; 3201 to 3204 for the subgroup « Liberal scientific and intellectual professions related to ICT»; 3301 to 3303 for the subgroup « Liberal scientific and intellectual professions related to the environment». This group includes professions with main tasks requiring high professional knowledge in physics and life sciences or human and social sciences. The exercise of the above tasks is regulated. Very often it requires diplomas, as well as the respect of working rules, which implies the presence of an ordinal organisation (medical doctor, pharmacist, lawyer, Chartered accountant…). Are also found in this group, legal or technical professions less strictly regulated (counselling in management, engineering, painting, drawer, musician..), fitting with diploma conditions. This group only comprises of own-account workers. So, medical doctors, or pharmacist working as wage earners (including the second case as pharmacist of dispensaries/private pharmacies) are not found in this group. For example, three situations can be observed from a gynaecologist: - he can work as a liberal person for his own account. In this case he is in group 3, coded 3101; - he can be the chief of a clinic that is an enterprise head. He’s therefore in group 2 coded 2301 or 2302 depending on the size of the clinic; - he can be a chief of service in a hospital. He is a senior executive. His code is 4301 of group 4. In the same manner, artists (painter, carvers, etc) who earn salaries, working as a family help or apprentice fall under group 7 and coded 7112. Particular case: Liberal nurses are found in group 5, code 5301. 4. Senior executive This group is subdivided in to three subgroups: 41- Senior executive in enterprises; 42- Senior executive of the public service and councils; 4 43- Senior executive (Public service and enterprise). The codes of this group start from: 4101 to 4103 for the subgroup « Senior executive in enterprises »; 4201 to 4204 for the subgroup « Senior executive of the public service and councils »; 4301 to 4315 for the subgroup « Senior executive (Public service and enterprises) ». This group comprises of professions that require technical knowledge and experiences in physics, life sciences, social or human sciences. This group is only for wage earners who work in enterprises, public service or in council. It’s the status of wage earners that distinguishes this group from the preceding one. For example, the wage earner chartered accountant in an enterprise is in this group and is coded 4101, whereas the one who works as an own account or a consultant is in group 3, code 3103. It’s divided into 3 subgroups depending on the type of post or profession. - “Senior executive in the private or public enterprises” (41), comprises specific posts in enterprises. - “Senior executive of the public service and in the councils” (42), comprises specific posts public service. - “Senior executive (public service and enterprise” (43), comprises the mixed posts. Particular case: the private class teacher of the secondary
