| Tiivistelmä: | Previous literature on over-education has assumed homogeneity of workers and jobs. Relaxing these assumptions, it is found that over-educated workers have lower education credentials than matched graduates. Among the over-educated graduates a distinction is made between the apparently over-educated workers, who have similar unobserved skills as matched graduates, and the genuinely over-educated workers, who have a much lower skill endowment. Over-education is associated with a pay penalty of 5-11% for apparently over-educated workers compared with matched graduates and of 22-26% for the genuinely over-educated. |
