# Classification

A [Worker](/reference/workers/object) can have many classifications through their employment with the company.
Major changes in classification usually result in a new [Employment](/reference/employments/object),
others will be represented by a new Classification object.

For example, converting a contractor to an employee will create a new Employment, but changing someone’s classification
from `salaried` to `hourly` will not.

Each classification includes a `starts` and optionally an `ends` date that represents the period when this classification
was effective.
