Description
This paper examines how occupational qualifications are utilized in women's careers by using two-wave JGSS panel dataset, focusing on two aspects. The first is to look at job shifts among women who use qualifications for their work and examine how they make use of "portability" of different types of qualified skills by bringing them from one workplace to another. The second is to estimate how different types of jobs that require qualifications cause increases in earnings. The results suggest that "portability" of qualified skills is utilized the most among healthcare professionals, and that using qualifications for work generally contributes to women's careers by securing stable jobs. On the other hand, all the qualified professionals among women do not account for wage increases in panel-data analyses where "unobserved, time-invariant and subject-specific components (fixed-effects)" are eliminated from the estimators. Exceptional cases are teachers in the group of non-university graduate women, and healthcare professionals in the group of university graduate women, where the statistically significant effects to increase annual wages were examined in the fixed-effect model. Overall, women who consider their skills utilized in their jobs are more likely to have their wages increase.
