Se analiza para Argentina el ingreso relativo y las características de los docentes. Se aplica ecuaciones Mincerianas, a una muestra de individuos obtenida de la EPH, mayo 1998, en 29 aglomerados urbanos, para evaluar diferencias de ingreso, éstas se descomponen, siguiendo a Oaxaca, en dos partes, atribuible la primera a las diferencias en las características, y la segunda a los retornos. Los resultados indican: el ingreso horario- docente supera el promedio general de la economía, se sitúa debajo del correspondiente a los ocupados con estudios superiores y universitarios y el efecto atribuible a las características personales eleva el ingreso docente por encima de la media de la economía, lo mantiene en un nivel similar frente a los ocupados con estudios superiores, pero lo penaliza frente al conjunto de ocupados con título profesional.
