The bottom line

Only about 15% of Underground Mining Machine Operators is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.

Why: The grounding data lacks specific tool or work activity distributions for this occupation. Consequently, the score relies on the deterministic SOC code prior of 0.00 (Construction and Extraction). Because the work is fundamentally hands-on and equipment-based, and given the sparsity of distinct signals, a band-center value of 0.15 is assigned to reflect its pure physical nature.
