HOW DOES EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT AFFECT
PARTICIPATION IN THE LABOUR MARKET?
Employment rates increase with education in all countries
On average across OECD countries the employment rate of
25-64 year-olds without an upper secondary qualification
was 55%, and 83% for those with a tertiary education.
For adults without an upper secondary qualification the
employment rate was lower than 40% in the Slovak
Republic, Hungary and Poland.
For adults with a tertiary qualification the employment rate
was about 90% in Austria, Denmark, Germany, Iceland, the
Netherlands, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland.

Tertiary education Upper secondary or post-secondary non-tertiary Below upper secondary%
More tertiary educated young men are employed but more
women have tertiary credentials
On average across OECD countries there is a gender gap in
employment even for tertiary educated young adults: 87% of
tertiary-educated men are employed versus 78% of tertiary educated
women.
Even if employment is higher among tertiary educated men, 25-34
year-old women have consistently higher attainment rates at the
tertiary level compared with men of the same age. Across OECD
countries, 46% of young women have reached tertiary education
while it is the case for 35% of young men.

more women have tertiary credentials Chart 2.2

Tertiary education attainment
Small gap in unemployment among tertiary educated men
and women
On average across OECD countries the gender gap in
unemployment for tertiary educated young adults is very
small: 7% of tertiary-educated men are unemployed versus
8% of tertiary educated women.
In some countries tertiary-educated women have lower
unemployment rates than men. This is the case in Canada,
Estonia, France, Ireland, Japan, Korea, Luxembourg,
Mexico, the Netherlands, Switzerland, the United Kingdom
and the United States.

TRANSITION FROM SCHOOL TO WORK:

Among the 20-24 year-olds, about 55% were not in
education of which 36% were employed, 10% unemployed
and 9% not looking for a job. So, about 19% can be seen as
NEET (people neither employed nor in education or
training).
The NEET population is over 25% in 7 countries: Colombia,
Greece, Hungary, Italy, Mexico, Spain and Turkey.

  9. Chart 2.4 Note: Disaggregated information on vocational and general programmes is not available and it is therefore not displayed for the following countries: Brazil, Colombia, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Norway, Poland, Portugal, the United Kingdom and the United States. Data for the Russian Federation refer to 2012. Data for Chile refer to 2011. Countries are ranked in ascending order of the proportion of employed adults with an upper secondary education with vocational orientation as highest level of attainment. Source: OECD. Table 2.5. See Annex for notes (www.oecd.org/edu.eag.htm).              
  10. Chart 3.1 Note: Data for 20-24 year-olds are not available for Japan. Countries are ranked in ascending order of the proportion of 20-24 year-olds in education. Source: OECD. Table 3.3. See Annex for notes (www.oecd.org/edu.eag.htm).
  11. Chart 3.4 Note: Countries for which the proportion of unknown is higher than 10% are not presented in this chart. 1. Hours worked are representing the actual number of hours worked per week, including overtime. When the actual number of hours worked per week could not be provided for a specific country, the usual hours worked were provided instead. The distribution is calculated based on the data presented in table 3.7. For example, in Turkey 32.3% of the 15-29 year-olds are not education and working and 28.0% of the 15-29 year-olds are not education and working 35 hours or more per week. The proportion shown in the graph for 35+ for Turkey is therefore 28.0% divided by 32.3% and multiplied by 100: 87%. 2. Respondents are classified as having worked zero hours if they did not work during the reference week while being in employment.             3. “Unknown” represents the 15-29 year-olds who are working and are not in education for which the information on the number of hours worked could not be collected or published.       4. For Australia, the number of actual hours worked in a week was missing. Data on usual number of hours worked in a week were available and displayed here in place of the number of actual hours worked in a week. 5. Number of hours worked per week is provided for 10-35 hours in Denmark instead of 10-34 hours.                   Countries are ranked in descending order of the proportion of 15-29 year-olds who are working 35 hours per week or more.
