Abstract

Abstract The career mobility model suggests that overeducated workers are more prone to take up on-the-job training, to climb up the career ladder, or to leave to professions more suitable to their educational level. Our empirical analysis, using the German SOEP, confirms this theory for Germany. Comparing adequately qualified and overqualified workers in jobs that require the same level of formal qualification indicates that overeducated workers have a higher probability to take up on-the-job training and have a higher probability to move to jobs that better match their educational level. Furthermore, we find that overeducated workers experience higher wage growth than their adequately educated colleagues.

这是一个不匹配!德国的过度教育和职业流动性

摘要职业流动模型表明，受过高等教育的劳动者更倾向于接受在职培训，更倾向于攀登职业阶梯，或者跳槽到更适合自己教育水平的职业。我们使用德国社会责任指数(SOEP)进行实证分析，证实了德国的这一理论。在要求同等正规学历的工作岗位上，比较足够资格的工人和资格过高的工人表明，受过高等教育的工人更有可能接受在职培训，更有可能跳槽到与他们的教育水平更匹配的工作岗位。此外，我们发现，与受过充分教育的同事相比，受教育程度过高的工人的工资增长更高。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
