Overeducation and Earnings
Original language description
The aim of this paper is to analyse and evaluate the current state of overeducation and underqualification in the EU countries and in the Czech Republic. There are steadily increasing numbers of education system graduates and persistent demand for education in the population. This leads to fears that the mismatch between jobs requirements and workforce qualifications will increase. Public educational policy seems to support this controversy. While numbers of enrolled students at secondary schools and public universities and consequently numbers of graduates are rising, there could be shortage of skilled level jobs in the future. The paper discusses various methods used to measure the level of education required for the job and the relevant theories (searching and matching, human capital theory, assignment theory etc.) that can be used for interpretation of overeducation. The last chapter analyses and evaluates current state of overeducation in the EU countries and in the Czech Republic
