根据国际文献，对当代南非数据的收入不平等分解表明，劳动力市场是整体家庭不平等的关键驱动因素。为了了解导致这种劳动力市场不平等的一个渠道，我们使用全国家庭调查数据来审查过去15年来南非劳动力市场教育回报的变化；重点关注就业的回报以及那些有工作的人的收入回报。我们表明，南非经历了技能扭曲，基础教育和高等教育的回报上升，教育水平的回报低于这一保持不变的水平。然后，基于收入不平等的回归分解，我们展示了这是如何影响收入不平等的。事实上，高等教育回报的增加直接抵消了教育程度提高所带来的平等收益，导致长期的不平等水平始终如一。
Following the international literature, income inequality decompositions on data from contemporary South Africa show that the labour market is the key driver of overall household inequality. In order to understand one of the channels driving this labour market inequality, we use national household survey data to review changing returns to education in the South African labour market over the last 15 years; with a focus on both the returns to getting employment as well as the earnings returns for those that have employment. We show that South Africa has experienced a skills twist with the returns to matric and post-secondary education rising and the returns to levels of education below this remaining constant. Then, based on a regression based decomposition of earnings inequality, we show how this has impacted earnings inequality. Indeed, the increase in returns to post-secondary education has directly counteracted the equalising gains that have been made by increased educational attainment, resulting in consistent levels of inequality over time.
