Resumo: We aim to study the role of labor market mismatch in the context of international migration. Mismatch employment occurs when high-skill workers are employed in occupations that do not need such education and vice versa. The results show: i) undereducation is on average lower among immigrants, while overeducation is higher among immigrants; ii) immigrants are more likely to be employed than natives; iii) mismatch is important in explaining wages; iv) there are differences in occupational mismatch effects; v) the immigrant’s place of origin is not important to explain occupation status but it is very important to explain differences in wages.

Mismatch ocupacional ocorre quando trabalhadores qualificados são ocupados em trabalhos que não necessitam de suas qualidades e vice-versa. Os resultados mostram que: i) subeducação é, em média, menor entre os imigrantes, enquanto sobreeducação é maior; ii) imigrantes são mais propensos a estaremempregados; iii) mismatch é importante para explicar diferenciais de salários; iv) existe diferença regional nos efeitos do mismatch ocupacional; v) o local de origem do imigrante não é importante para explicar status ocupacional, mas importa para explicar diferenciais de rendimentos.Universidade de São Paulo, FEA-RP/USP2024-05-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoa/article/view/14222310.11606/1980-5330/ea142223Economia Aplicada; Vol. 26 No. 4 (2022); 461-482Economia Aplicada; v. 26 n. 4 (2022); 461-482Economia Aplicada; Vol. 26 Núm. 4 (2022); 461-4821980-53301413-8050reponame:Economia Aplicadainstname:Universidade de São Paulo (USP)instacron:USPenghttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoa/article/view/142223/204231Copyright (c) 2024 Economia Aplicadahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGama, Luiz Carlos DayHermeto, AnaMendes, Philipe Scherrer2024-05-15T04:43:17Zoai:revistas.usp.br:article/142223Revistahttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoaPUBhttps://www.revistas.usp.br/ecoa/oai||revecap@usp.br1980-53301413-8050opendoar:2024-05-15T04:43:17Economia Aplicada - Universidade de São Paulo (USP)false
