Based on years of schooling to higher levels of education; level of university degree and master´s degree. This operation for education has an important role in improving the income of individuals, which plays an important role in the design of wage policies of the government and the labor market. However, the yields offered a better educational level of earnings among men than women. In addition, men who work in the manufacturing industry have a better chance of increasing their income than women. According to the level of education, the teacher gets more revenue than the bachelor. However in San Pedro Sula, university graduates were better paid than those who obtained their master's degree.
