Abstract: © 2020 The Author(s). Papers in Regional Science © 2020 RSAI This paper studies the link between the employment structure of local labour markets and the schooling choices of the youth in Spain. We construct a panel of Spanish provinces, and the effect of local labour markets was identified by using the variation in the share of employment by industry and gender across provinces and over time. A model with province fixed-effects and specific-slopes is used, which makes it possible to control for both time constant and time-varying unobserved heterogeneity across provinces. A sizable impact is found for both boys and girls of the industry structure of employment on educational attainment.
