Resumen

En la literatura relacionada con la sobre-educación, es tradicional asumir que el impacto de dicha sobreeducación en los salarios es común a toda la distribución de salarios. En este artículo, con datos de un grupo de países europeos y utilizando la regresión cuantílica se demuestra que, de hecho, el impacto de la sobreeducación es diferente en los distintos segmentos de la distribución de salarios. Las diferencias de género y por país son también significativas. Así por ejemplo en Alemania, la penalización salarial de los sobreeducados es mayor entre las mujeres que entre los hombres, pero mientras para los hombres la penalización es mayor en los deciles superiores, para las mujeres la penalización es mayor en los deciles inferiores. En España, las mujeres son más severamente penalizadas por estar sobre-educadas que los hombres, siendo constante dicha penalización salarial a lo largo de la distribución de salarios.
