BRIEF HISTORY - SIC & NAICS CODES
Established by the U.S. Federal government in the 1930's, the four digit SIC codes covered the entire field of economic activities by defining industries in accordance with the composition and structure of the economy.
The government needed standardized and meaningful ways in which to measure, analyze and share data across its various agencies.
SIC Codes were last updated in 1987 and were replaced by the six digit North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) in 1997.
NAICS Codes group establishments (entities) into industries based on the similarity of their production processes.
NAICS Codes are updated every 5 years to reflect new and emerging industries and greater global comparability across industries.
