7 bundles · 14 layers · 16 findings · 44 questions
Identity, naming and classification How an agent tells one skilled worker from another, and a skilled worker from things that resemble it.
Recognition comes before every other claim. Without stable identity nothing else in the model can be trusted to be about the same thing twice.
Names and identifiers
The names this thing goes by and the identifiers that survive translation and time.
Preferred name, aliases and local names
Which name to use, which names mean the same thing, and which merely sound similar.
- What identifies and describes the name of a skilled worker, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the name of a skilled worker, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once the name of a skilled worker is known, and what must it refuse? action
Stable identifiers and external keys
Identifiers that keep pointing at this kind of thing across systems and languages.
- What identifies and describes an identifier for a skilled worker, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about an identifier for a skilled worker, by which method, and when was it true? provenance

Classification and granularity
Where a skilled worker sits among kinds, and how finely a task needs to cut it.
Kind, parents and neighbouring kinds
The classes this thing belongs to and the ones it is next to.

- Who or what asserted this about what distinguishes a skilled worker, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once what distinguishes a skilled worker is known, and what must it refuse? action
Place and movement Where a skilled worker is, how it got there and where it may go (self-moving).
A thing that can move needs its position recorded with a time, or every later claim about it is about a place it has left.
Location and placement
Position, containment and the reference frame the position is given in.
Position, container and reference frame
Where a skilled worker is, and what that position is measured against.
- What identifies and describes the location of a skilled worker, and in what units or vocabulary? definition

Movement events and constraints
What counts as a movement, what records it and what limits it.
- What identifies and describes the movement of a skilled worker, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the movement of a skilled worker, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once the movement of a skilled worker is known, and what must it refuse? action
State and lifecycle The states a skilled worker passes through and the events that move it between them.
Most decisions about a thing depend on what state it is in now, which is a claim with a time on it, not a property.
Lifecycle stages
From coming into existence to ceasing to be one of these.
Stages and transitions
The stages worth naming and what moves a skilled worker between them.
- What identifies and describes the lifecycle of a skilled worker, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the lifecycle of a skilled worker, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once the lifecycle of a skilled worker is known, and what must it refuse? action
Observations and current status
What is observed about a skilled worker, how often and by whom.
Observation record
How an observation of a skilled worker is recorded so that it can be superseded rather than overwritten.
- What identifies and describes an observation of a skilled worker, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about an observation of a skilled worker, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once an observation of a skilled worker is known, and what must it refuse? action
People, roles and responsibility Who stands in what relation to a skilled worker.
Social things are defined by the relations people hold to them, and those relations change without the thing changing.
Roles and parties
The roles that exist around a skilled worker and who fills them.
Role assignments and their validity
Who holds which role over a skilled worker, from when, and on whose authority.
- What identifies and describes a role over a skilled worker, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about a role over a skilled worker, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once a role over a skilled worker is known, and what must it refuse? action

Who answers for a skilled worker and who may decide about it.
Accountability and decision rights
Where responsibility for a skilled worker sits when something goes wrong.
- What identifies and describes responsibility for a skilled worker, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about responsibility for a skilled worker, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once responsibility for a skilled worker is known, and what must it refuse? action
Competence, qualification and licence What someone must be able to do, and be permitted to do, as skilled worker.
The permission is jurisdictional and the competence is not, and conflating them is how an agent concludes someone may practise when they may not.
Competences and qualifications
Skills and credentials the role assumes.
Qualifications and how they are evidenced
What counts as qualified, and what proves it.
- What competences and qualifications does skilled worker require, and how is each evidenced? definition
- Which qualifications transfer between jurisdictions and which do not? boundary
Licensing and the right to practise
Who grants permission, where it holds, and when it lapses.
Licence, issuer and validity
The permission, its issuer, its territory and its expiry.
- Who licenses skilled worker, in which territory, and for how long? provenance
- What may an unlicensed person not do, and what must an agent refuse to assume? action
Tasks, employment and accountability What skilled worker actually does and who answers for it.
A role is filled by people under an arrangement, and the arrangement decides liability, supervision and who may instruct whom.
Tasks and typical duties
The work itself, and how it differs by setting.
Duties and setting
What the role does and where the work varies.
- What tasks define skilled worker, and how do they differ between settings or seniority? definition
- Which tasks may only be done by this role, and which are shared with neighbouring roles? boundary
Employment and accountability
The relation under which the work is done and where responsibility sits.
Responsibility and supervision
Who instructs, who supervises, who is liable.
- Under what arrangement does someone act as skilled worker, and who supervises or is liable? definition
- When something goes wrong, what does the model need to have recorded to answer who was responsible? provenance
Provenance, evidence and time Where every claim about a skilled worker came from and when it held.
A claim without a source and a time cannot be superseded, only overwritten, and an agent that overwrites loses the ability to explain itself.
Source and authority
Who said it, on what evidence, and how strongly.
Claim provenance and confidence
The authority behind each claim about a skilled worker and how confident it is.
- What identifies and describes a claim about a skilled worker, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about a claim about a skilled worker, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once a claim about a skilled worker is known, and what must it refuse? action
Time, versions and supersession
When a claim was true, when it was learnt, and what replaced it.
Validity period and supersession
How an old claim about a skilled worker is retired without being erased.
- What identifies and describes the validity of a claim about a skilled worker, and in what units or vocabulary? definition
- Who or what asserted this about the validity of a claim about a skilled worker, by which method, and when was it true? provenance
- What may an agent decide or do once the validity of a claim about a skilled worker is known, and what must it refuse? action

What it is Derived, awaiting review
A social thing registered under SOC.PER. The registry names it; this draft has not been given a definition yet.
Why it exists Derived, awaiting review
Give an agent a durable, checkable way to recognise a skilled worker, record what state it is in, and decide what may be done with it.
Distinguishing features Derived, awaiting review
- Names folded into this entry, which a task may need to split apart again: AI prompter, board operator, autoworker, Machine and plant operator, occupational diver, new-collar worker, car finance.
- 7 finer distinctions are held as aliases rather than separate entries, because telling them apart needs a task that asks for it.
- Described in 11 Wikipedia languages, which is a measure of how widely the thing is known, not of how important it is.
What robots and AI may and may not do Derived, awaiting review
May
- observe it, measure it, record its state
