| contents | Education and wage inequality in the informal sector: the case of Cameroon Ondoa Henri Atangana This article analyses the effects of education on wage inequality in the informal sector in Cameroon. The author uses quantile regression on data from the Second survey on employment and the informal sector in Cameroon (EESI 2) of 2010. The results indicate that both wages and wage inequality increase with education in the informal sector, with tertiary education creating greatest inequality. These findings point to a number of policy recommendations for a transition to formality, such as the creation of more jobs for a skilled workforce, the development of sites adapted to informal sector activities and the creation of more vocational schools. 10.1111/ilr.12096 DOI https://doi.org/10.1111/ilr.12096 publication.journalArticle |
