?:abstract
  • Skills are viewed as a major component of knowledge-based economies. On an individual level, skills can support labour market success and can have an effect on earnings and job satisfaction (Hanushek et al., 2014). But skills must be used efficiently to generate these positive labour market outcomes. If this is not the case, skill mismatch occurs. This means that workers either do not meet the skills required at their workplace (under-skilled / over-utilisation) or have higher skills than needed (over-skilled / under-utilisation). In this chapter, we look at differences between two age groups (25-49 and 50-65 years) with regard to their skill levels and skill use at the work place. We analyse how older workers (50-65) utilise their skills in the workplace compared to the younger ones. Which factors influence skill utilisation? Does age have a relevant effect on skill mismatch when controlling for gender, education and other variables? Do older workers tend to lose their skills because these skills are not fully utilised in the workplace? And what are the effects of over- or under-utilisation of skills on earnings and job satisfaction? The focus of our empirical research is on the analysis of the PIAAC dataset17 for the five countries that participate in the European FACTAGE (Fairer Active Ageing for Europe) project: Austria, Germany, Spain, Belgium and the UK.
