Resumen de Educational mismatch and wages in the hospitality sector
Bienvenido Ortega Aguaza, Andrés J. Marchante, Ricardo Pagán Rodríguez
The authors estimate the impact on wages of educational mismatch and other components of workers' human capital for a cross-section of 3,314 wage earners in 181 hotels and 121 restaurants in Andalusia. The estimated results show that there is a positive wage premium to over-education in the sector, but also that particular types of education - specific vocational education, languages and computer skills - reap rewards for workers in the marketplace.
