THE EFFECTS OF EDUCATION-JOB MISMATCH ON WAGES: A PANEL ANALYSIS OF THE TURKISH LABOR MARKET

Öz:
Eğitim-iş uyuşmazlığı literatürü, eğitim-iş uyuşmazlıklarının, özellikle de aşırı eğitim durumunun, ücretler üzerinde olumsuz etkisi olduğunu tutarlı bir şekilde ortaya koymaktadır. Ancak bu alanda yapılan çoğu ampirik çalışma bireyler arasındaki gözlemlenemeyen farklılıkları ve ölçümleme hatalarını hesaba katmamakla eleştirilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye işgücü piyasasında eğitim-iş uyuşmazlığının ücretler üzerindeki etkisi 2006-2010 Gelir ve Yaşam Koşulları Anketi Panel veri seti kullanılarak incelenmektedir. Panel veri sabit ve rassal etki modeli ve araç değişken metodu kullanılarak, söz konusu iki potensiyel tahmin hatasının etkisi kontrol edilmektedir. Elde edilen tutarlı tahmin sonuçları, aşırı ya da yetersiz eğitimin ücretler üzerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir etkisinin olmadığını göstermektedir. Bu bulgu teorik olarak değerlendirildiğinde, Türkiye işgücü piyasasında bireysel insan sermayesi ile işe ait özelliklerin salt tek başlarına değil, birlikte etki yaptığına işaret etmektedir. Bu çerçevede, aşırı eğitimin kaynakların etkin kullanımını önünde bir engel teşkil ettiği yönünde bir politika önermesi yapılabilir

EĞİTİM-İŞ UYUŞMAZLIĞININ ÜCRETLER ÜZERİNE ETKİSİ: TÜRKİYE İŞGÜCÜ PİYASA- SINDA BİR PANEL VERİ ANALİZİ

Öz:
The literature on education-job mismatch has consistently reported a negative effect of education-job mismatch, particularly overeducation, on earnings. Yet, most studies are criticized for not accounting for unobservable individual heterogeneity and measurement error in their analyses. This paper examines the impact of educational mismatch on earnings in the Turkish labor market, using the Income and Living Conditions panel data set from 2006-2010. The two potential sources of bias are addressed using panel data and instrumental variable approach. The consistent IV fixed effects estimation suggests that there is no statistically significant effect of overeducation or undereducation in workers’ earnings. The theoretical implication of the analysis is that neither individuals’ human capital nor job characteristics solely determine the level of returns, but both effects work together. Thus, at a policy making level one can argue that overeducation is a waste of resources for both the individual and society
