| description | Due to the arrival of COVID-19 in Mexico, a majority of the population was affected in terms of their labor participation. This article aims to measure the levels of educational mismatch—overeducation and undereducation—in Mexico before and after the closure of activities decreed during the pandemic. The research examines changes in educational adjustment from the first quarter of 2020 to the third quarter of the same year and the first quarter of the following year, and it investigates whether there were modifications in sociodemographic profiles, changes in the conditions of those experiencing educational mismatch, and if these dynamics were a result of the crisis. The analysis uses the National Occupation and Employment Survey and employs multinomial models to assess the probability of being in some form of educational mismatch, with a grouped base for five survey editions to establish changes over time. The results show an increase of approximately 0.5% in overeducation in the total occupied population, considering sociodemographic and labor insertion characteristics. Similarly, there are differences between informal and formal employment in terms of how these changes occur, with the former showing increases first, followed by the latter. |

En México, la llegada de la covid-19 afectó la participación laboral de la mayoría de la población. A propósito de ese fenómeno, con este artículo se busca medir los niveles de desajuste educativo –por sobreducación y subeducación– antes y después del cierre de actividades decretado ante la pandemia. Se revisan los cambios en el ajuste educativo entre el primer trimestre de 2020 y el tercero del mismo año, sumando además el primer trimestre de 2021. La atención se centra en si se modificaron los perfiles sociodemográficos y si esto implicó cambios en las condiciones de los desajustados, o si bien estos fueron producto de la crisis. Para el análisis se utilizan la Encuesta Nacional de Ocupación y Empleo y modelos multinomiales sobre la probabilidad de insertarse en algún tipo de inadecuación educativa con una base agrupada para cinco ediciones de la encuesta a fin de establecer los cambios en el tiempo. Los resultados muestran que se registra un aumento de alrededor de 0,5 % de sobreducación en la población ocupada total, si se consideran las características sociodemográficas y de inserción laboral. Del mismo modo, se reflejan diferencias entre los empleos informales y los formales en términos de cómo ocurren estos cambios, pues los primeros se inician con incrementos, mientras en los segundos esto se da en el mediano plazo. No México, a chegada da covid-19 afetou a participação laboral da maioria da população. Em relação a este fenômeno, este artigo busca mensurar os níveis de desequilíbrio educacional – devido à sobreeducação e à subeducação – antes e depois do encerramento das atividades decretado diante da pandemia. São revisadas as mudanças no ajuste educacional entre o primeiro trimestre de 2020 e o terceiro do mesmo ano, acrescentando também o primeiro trimestre de 2021. O foco está em saber se os perfis sociodemográficos foram modificados e se isso implicou mudanças nas condições dos estudantes desajustados ou se estes foram um produto da crise. Para a análise, utiliza-se a Pesquisa Nacional de Ocupação e Emprego e modelos multinomiais sobre a probabilidade de entrar em algum tipo de inadequação educacional com base agrupada para cinco edições da pesquisa, a fim de estabelecer mudanças ao longo do tempo. Os resultados mostram que há um aumento de cerca de 0,5% na sobreeducação no total da população ocupada, se consideradas as características sociodemográficas e a colocação profissional. Da mesma forma, as diferenças entre empregos informais e formais se refletem na forma como essas mudanças ocorrem, uma vez que os primeiros começam com aumentos, enquanto nos segundos isso ocorre no médio prazo.
