Decomposition

Table A1.3: Employment rate and educational attainment of men aged 25–64 in Hungary and in the EU (15), 2001

Educational attainment

Emplyment rate Ratio in population Average of EU

(15) countries Hungary Average of EU

(15) coutries Hungrary Less than upper secondary education 0.71 0.57 0.38 0.63 Upper secondary education* 0.82 0.75 0.39 0.22 At least college 0.88 0.84 0.23 0.15 Total (unweighted) 0.79 0.65 1.000 1.000 Unweighted diff erence: 0.14.

* For Hungary Classifi cation2 is used: upper secondary education includes gymnasiums and vocational secondary schools.

Sources: Employment rate of EU countries: OECD Employment Outlook 2003. Statis- tical Annex Table D., Educational attainment of the population: OECD Education at a Glance. OECD 2003.

Hungarian data are estimations based on data of 2001 Census.

Let denote employment rate by F, employment rate of those whose educa-FF tional attainment isi by ii, and ratio of population whose highest educa- tional attainment is i byi ysi. Let use EUUés MMindexes for the average of the EU countries and Hungary respectively. We can decompose the diff erence in two ways:

FEU F

F – FU FFMM= ∑i ƒƒƒ (MMi ss – sEUiU sMMi ) + ∑issEUiU(ƒƒƒ – ƒEUiU ƒƒ )MMi

= ∑i ƒƒƒ (EUiU ss – sEUiU sMMi ) + ∑issMMi (ƒƒƒ – ƒEUiU ƒƒ ) .MMi

In the fi rst case – see the fi rst line of the equation – using the Hungarian employment rates of educational categories and the EU ditribution of the population by educational categories for weighting. In the second case – see the second line of equation – using the EU employment rates of edu- cational categories and the Hungarian distribution of the population by educational categories for weighting.

A.2

Th e earnings function we have used:

W=

W α01R203U+UU α4E5E26R×E7O×E8U×UU E9SEX ,X where W is the natural logarithm of the monthly (before tax) wage, E stands for (potential) labour market experience, inserting variable SEX (male = 1, female = 0) is intended to control for potential disadvantage of women.

Interaction terms R×E, O×E, U×E are inserted to see whether the im- pact of under- or over-education on wage is independent of labour market experience or not. From our point of view the following partial derivatives are relevant:

W = α1 + α6E,

R

∂∂∂W = α2 + α777E,

OW =α38E,

We will focus on α∂U 123.

Th e wage regressions were run on nine annual samples of Employment Offi ce’s wage survey for the period 1994 to 2002. Th ey were estimated by ols with robust standard errors that might produce biased coeffi cients due to endogeneity, simultaneity or selectivity bias. Detailed estimation results are found in Galasi (2004b).
