| Abstract: | This paper examines the role of national institutional factors, like the level of skill transparency of the education system and labour market coordination, in accounting for cross-national differences in the relationship between education and occupational status. The findings suggest that skill transparency is the primary moderator. Countries that have a highly transparent educational system tend to be characterized by a strong relationship between education and occupational status. It is also found that labour market coordination plays an independent role by dampening the effect of education on occupational status. These results suggest two quite different policy implications. |
