有人提出，英国劳动力市场存在“种族惩罚”，少数民族群体成员无法进入与其资格相称的职业。这些通过教育获得职业成就的分析往往将少数群体视为同质群体，而没有认识到，在一些少数群体中，其他标准，如宗教，也可能影响职业成就，存在很大的异质性。我们认为，这些民族宗教少数群体之间有显着的差异，他们的劳动力市场表现，这是衡量使用一个连续的规模的技能水平的距离，衡量回报的教育。
It has been suggested that 'ethnic penalties' exist in British labour markets, whereby members of ethnic minority groups fail to get into occupations commensurate with their qualifications. Often these analyses of occupational attainment by education treat minority groups as homogeneous, not recognising that in several there is substantial heterogeneity on other criteria, such as religion, which may also influence occupational attainment. We argue that there are significant variations among these ethno-religious minorities regarding their labour-market performance, which is measured using a continuous scale of skill-level distances a measure of returns to education.
