5.1 Differentiation between barber
hairdresser or entrepreneur

• Demarcation of specialisations manager, self
  employed, allrounder and junior
• Running a business and supervising other
  hairdressers or assistants is not a task for
  all.To this occupation belong - shopowner
  with personnel,- shopowner self employed,-
  allround hairdresser,- junior hairdresser.
  Mainly the first specialisation does train or
  supervise.
• Related problem where is the general manager in
  hairdressing?Similar to ISCO 1318 General
  managers in personal care, cleaning and related
  services.
• Most functional skills are similar, except
  enterprising and managerial skills
• Income and social status different for
  selfemployed/shopowner vs. employees

5.2 Differentiation between barber
hairdresser or entrepreneur

• Barber/hairdresser Skill specialisation may be
  different
• Barber/hairdresser Skill level is similar
• If the number of occupations in the
  classification must be limited, then rather
  manager/entrepreneur small business (less than 5
  personnel), - self employed entrepreneur, -
  hairdresserA self employed hairdresser would
  score 50 self employed entrepreneur 50
  hairdresser.

6. Difficulties with answering Questionnaire of
hairdresser

• Question The frequency of performance of tasks
  (daily, weekly etc.) is difficult to use. Easier
  to use would be several times per day, week etc.
• Question How important is competent performance
  of this task in this occupation? What is the
  focus of this question establishing the key
  tasks? Or establishing tasks which may be
  performed incompetently?If the former is the
  focus then the phrasing of the question might be
  something like Which of the tasks is the most
  important?(What makes a hairdresser an
  excellent one?)
• Question How many subordinates do people working
  in this occupation, in general, formally
  supervise?What is meant here? If supervising
  then to how many subordinates?
• Some answers were difficult to interpret- mental
  effort, level of knowledge, skill level
