Concentration is this occupation's share of employment here divided by its share across every industry we hold — how much this industry is made of that job. Above 8× it is a defining occupation; near 1× it is a job every industry has, like a manager or an office clerk. Which licence gates OPERATING the business depends on the jurisdiction and on how the business is structured, and we do not assert it.
