An unusual corner of the public record. 97000 exists for households employing domestic staff, and in the UK it is used far more often by the companies arranging that employment than by households themselves: nanny and housekeeper agencies, private household staffing firms and payroll services for domestic employers.
How to read SIC 97000
SIC 97000 reads as division 97 (activities of households as employers of domestic personnel), group 970, class 9700, then the full five digits, inside section T, activities of households. A company picks its own codes, up to four, and Companies House does not check them, so 97000 is the company's own description of what it does, and 642 list it first where 1,096 list it anywhere.
Who sells into division 97
Domestic payroll bureaux, employers' liability insurers, DBS checking and background screening providers all sell into this division. So do the accountants who handle PAYE for private employers, which is a niche most practices avoid.

Why would a company use a household employment code?
