In this study we provide evidence on the e¤ect of alcohol consumption on occupational attainment and wages in England.

This result holds when we use a restricted sample consisting of only those individuals with consumption patterns that have remained constant over a …ve year period. JEL classi…cation: C51; I12; J24
