Question
Occupation is determinant of class status
✓
Answer
This statement is True.
Occupation is an important aspect of social class and it is another determinant of class status.
It is a well-known fact that some kinds of work are more honourable than others, e.g., doctors, engineers, professors and lawyers hold a higher position than people who are in labour-intensive professions.
Occupation is also one of the best clues to one’s way of life, and therefore to one’s social class membership.
