Sobreeducación y sobrecapacitación: la influencia del origen social en la inserción laboral

Palabras clave:

inserción laboral, sobreeducación, sobrecualificación, educación de los padres y capital social

Resumen

 

 Este artículo examina la relación entre el origen social y la probabilidad de estar sobreeducado o sobrecualificado. Utilizando microdatos PIAAC para los países de la UE, llevamos a cabo un análisis econométrico que examina el efecto de que los padres de los trabajadores tengan una educación superior sobre la probabilidad de que se encuentren sobreeducados y / o sobrecualificado. Los resultados muestran que los trabajadores cuyos padres tienen altos niveles de educación tienen menos probabilidades de estar sobreeducados para una cohorte joven, mientras que este efecto desaparece para una muestra de mayor edad. Sin embargo, estos individuos tendrán más probabilidades de estar sobrecualificados, dado el mayor capital cultural recibido en sus familias. Esto ocurre para ambas cohortes.
