Fields of study, which account for less than 1% of secondary and tertiary educated individuals, are not reported here. Sample includes all individuals aged 18-55 who are in formal employment. Source: Czech Labor Force Survey data (2011-2014), own calculation. For tertiary educated, the variation in horizontal mismatch across fields is even higher. Medicine, pharmacy, banking and pedagogy are again among the fields with the lowest share of mismatch (between 8 and 25% of people with these fields of study work in 26
