Abstract

Introducing an employment variable with five levels of educational attainment per capita and employing inequality decomposition, this study addresses three questions. How does labour force vary by education and provinces? How does labour force utilization vary by education and provinces? What are the potential causes of differences? We find that the no‐primary‐education group is more endowed in less‐developed provinces and allocated most unequally among education groups across provinces, despite past universal primary education policies. The senior‐secondary‐education group with the largest labour share is a growing concern due to the lower employment rate and largest interprovincial inequality. Este estudio introduce una variable de empleo con cinco niveles de logro educativo per cápita y emplea una descomposición de la desigualdad, con el objeto de abordar tres preguntas. ¿Cómo varía la fuerza laboral según la educación y en diferentes provincias? ¿Cómo varía la utilización de la fuerza laboral según la educación y en diferentes provincias? ¿Cuáles son las causas potenciales de las diferencias? Se encontró que el grupo sin educación primaria es más numeroso en las provincias menos desarrolladas y está asignado de forma más desigual entre los grupos educativos de las provincias, a pesar de las políticas anteriores de educación primaria universal. El grupo de educación secundaria superior con la mayor proporción de mano de obra es una preocupación creciente debido a la menor tasa de empleo y a la mayor desigualdad interprovincial. 本稿では、1人当たりの学歴に5段階の雇用の変数を導入し、不平等分解分析を用いて、労働力は教育や地域によってどのように異なるか、労働力の活用は教育や地域によってどのように異なるか、その差異の潜在的な原因は何か、以上の3つの問題に取り組む。過去に普通初等教育の政策が実施されたにもかかわらず、開発が進んでいない省では初等教育 (primary‐education)の学歴がない集団はより多くの資金を与えられており、すべての省の学歴集団の中で最も不均等に配分されていることが分かった。労働分配率が最大である高等/中等教育の学歴集団は、低い雇用率と省間の非常に大きい格差のために懸念が増大している。.
