Using the Second Malaysia Productivity Investment Climate Survey (PICS-2), nearly 20 per cent and 30 per cent of workers employed in jobs for which they are overeducated and undereducated, respectively. Further findings indicated that over-education is more acute amongs highly-educated workers whilst under-education is more evident for lowly educated workers. By gender, women have a higher proportion of over-educated workers compared to men. Consequently, over-education leads to lower productivity in terms of earnings.

Zainizam Zakariya
This paper explores the impact of aggregate overqualification on regional economic growth in Malaysia from 2005 to 2017 using Dynamic Panel Data (DPD) approach. The aggregate overqualification was gauged as the percentage of workers with at least a bachelor’s degree qualification who employed in an occupation below than the professional job level. Following the method, while the incidence stood at 1 percent, it was however higher in Kuala Lumpur (4.4 percent) and Selangor (3.9 percent) and was much lower in Perak (-0.26 percent) and Perlis (-0.12 percent). Moreover, the incidence was higher after 2010. Empirical findings revealed strong evidence of negative impact of the aggregate overqualification on regional economic growth. Yet, the magnitudes of the effect were smaller, between 0.02 and 0.03. Further analysis revealed the negative impact was greater in most developed states and for the period after 2010. The findings depict that there is a growth penalty for not being fully utili.....
