Further details

organization is preferred over person whenever applicable, but only applies to references of groups of people where a specific organization is explicit. For example, reference to a teachers’ union is annotated as organization, but general reference to teachers is annotated as person.

References

The semantic scope of organization includes that of ORG(anization) in “classical” named entity recognition tasks as a subset. Contrast person.
