 North American
Industry Classification System 2017, pa $55/hb $65
The Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía (INEGI) of Mexico,
Statistics Canada, and the United States Office of Management and
Budget, through its Economic Classification Policy Committee, have
jointly updated the system of classification of economic activities
that makes the industrial statistics produced in the three countries
comparable. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS)
revision for 2017 is scheduled to go into effect for reference year
2017 in Canada and the United States, and 2018 in Mexico. NAICS was
originally developed to provide a consistent framework for the
collection, analysis, and dissemination of industrial statistics
used by government policy analysts, by academics and researchers, by
the business community, and by the public. Revisions for 2017 were
made to account for our rapidly changing economies.
Classifications serve as a lens through which to view the data they
classify. NAICS is the first industry classification system that was
developed in accordance with a single principle of aggregation, the
principle that producing units that use similar production processes
should be grouped together. NAICS also reflects, in a much more
explicit way, the enormous changes in technology and in the growth
and diversification of services that have marked recent decades.
Though NAICS differs from other industry classification systems, the
three countries continue to strive to create industries that do not
cross two-digit boundaries of the United Nations’ International
Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities (ISIC).
The actual classification reveals only the tip of the work carried
out by dedicated staff from INEGI, Statistics Canada, and U.S.
statistical agencies. It is through their efforts, painstaking
analysis, and spirit of accommodation that NAICS has emerged as a
harmonized international classification of economic activities in
North America.
