Frequently asked questions
What does ANZSCO 234113 represent?
Forester / Forest Scientist is a legacy Australian and New Zealand occupation code. It is still useful for migration work, historical lookup and documents that have not yet moved to OSCA.
Should I use ANZSCO for new references?
Use OSCA for current Australian occupation work. Keep ANZSCO only where the older standard is required for immigration, archive or migration purposes.
Why is industry context still shown here?
The related ANZSIC links help you understand where a legacy occupation usually sits in practice. That makes it easier to compare ANZSCO against OSCA or against the business category.
