Click the [Demographic button] next to the code will display the demographic availability of minorities and women for that code.

Edit a Census Code Assignment

In either view, click the [Edit] button at the left of the Job Title to change the census code assignment. The Select Census Code menu will display three options:

• Select from List – Select from a list of potential census codes for the Job Title. To see all census codes, click [Show All], a button at the bottom of the list.
• Search by Job Title/Census Title – Type a keyword into the provided field, and click Search. Select by Census Group - Narrow the census code list by job category. Select a job category from the Census Code Group drop-down.

For each method, click the appropriate Census Code to assign it to the job.

Quick Tip: If you know the census codes well or only have a few to edit, choose View by Job Title. Click directly on the Census Code /Description entry to open a drop-down, containing all census codes. Type the first few numbers of the code to navigate down the list, and select the appropriate code. Click Save.
