Abstract: The Company’s database covers a very particular population of jobs and firms – managers and business professionals at modern business enterprises. It is not well suited for studying typical firms or their workers in developing countries because those firms do not engage the Company’s services and so do not appear in the Company’s database. We assemble nationally representative data sets to study employment patterns and compensation among such firms for context. We start by comparing the employment patterns in terms of occupations. We map Company job titles to 1-digit ISCO-08 occupations. We draw on representative data from the ILOSTAT database produced by the International Labour Organization. They tabulate a number of results from household surveys, labor force surveys, and censuses for countries around the world. The most useful tabulation for our purposes is the number of workers employed by ISCO-08 2-digit occupation category.1 We aggregate to the 1-digit level.
