The DOL classifies all jobs and assigns them a job zone, indicating the maximum allowable educational requirement and experience requirement. If the minimum education and experience listed on the ETA 9089 form exceed the Specific Vocational Preparation (SVP) assigned to that Job Zone, then the DOL has stated that those requirements are not “normal” for the occupation and the employer must so indicate on the ETA 9089 Form where asked.
