The mismatch between education and occupation is a recurring theme in economic studies, however, rarely addressed in studies of occupational health. The extent of the inconsistency can be done by means of objective and subjective measures. Objective method in the level of education required to perform the duties is determined by an expert. In the empirical method is evaluated by measuring the schooling of workers in a given occupation and mismatch is determined by the deviation around the average schooling. In subjective method, the worker determines the level of education required for the exercise of his job. In a sample of 1808 health workers of the Municipality of Belo Horizonte - MG, in 2009, using the objective method it was verified a 47% frequency of overeducation for the position and 8% of undereducation. Univariate multiple regression showed that the overeducation was positively associated with male gender (OR = 1.33, 95% CI 1.07-1.66), age over 24 years (35 to 44 years, OR = 2.04 , 95% CI 1.38-3.01), white (OR = 2.08, 95% CI 1.70-2.56) and job dissatisfaction (OR = 1.87, 95% CI 1.48-2,36), and negatively associated with unstable bond (OR = 0.42, 95% CI 0.34-0.53), while working in the public service less than ten years (OR = 0.61, 95% CI 0.50-0.74) and receiving less than R$ 1,200.00 (OR = 0.27, 95% CI 0.18-0.39). It was observed a positive association of overeducation with job dissatisfaction (OR = 1.87, 95% CI 1.48-2.36) and negatively with not submit overcommitment (OR = 0.79, 95% CI 0.64-0,98), but there was no association with mental health problems. Undereducation showed no statistically significant associations. The mismatch between education and position has the potential to act as a stressor, deserving more attention in the context of occupational health studies.
