Where do I find the NAICS Code requested in Section C, question 13 of the ETA Form 9142, and what is it?
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is the standard used by Federal statistical agencies in classifying business establishments for the purpose of collecting, analyzing, and publishing statistical data related to the U.S. business economy. The NAICS coding system is maintained by the U.S. Census Bureau. A listing of NAICS codes can be found at http://www.census.gov/epcd/www/naics.html. The code selected by the employer should reflect the nature of the employer’s business, not the job for which certification is sought.
