History
Starting in 1925, it was a way of classifying occupations based on the registrar-general’s scale, used in Britain at the time.
Controversy
It is controversial for deciding women’s class based on that of a “head of household”, assumed to be a man. It is also allegedly biased towards status in Sharifistan’s upper and middle class communities, failing to take into account views amongst Sharifistan’s underclass who typically view members of the judiciary, landowning class and civilian police with suspicion whilst revering the common soldier above even an Emir as well as respecting some types of criminal.
