Download or read book Human Capital and On the Job Training written by Gilad D. Aharonovitz and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A common assumption in literature dealing with the lifecycle profile of human capital is that individuals decide every period on the investment in their human capital, i.e., schooling and training. However, in many cases training is a decision made by the employer rather than the employee. This study constructs a lifecycle profile of human capital assuming that individuals decide on investment in schooling, but employers decide on investment in training in latter periods. A shorter time horizon for employers leads to underinvestment in training, which leads to underinvestment in schooling. Policy implications and other contributions of this model are discussed.

Download or read book On the job Training written by Harley Frazis and published by Now Publishers Inc. This book was released on 2007-01-09 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On-the-Job Training surveys the recent literature from both a theoretical and empirical perspective. The analysis of how individuals obtain and are paid for their skills is fundamental to labor economics. The basic idea of human capital theory is that workers and firms invest in workers' skills in order to increase their productivity, much as persons invest in financial or physical assets to earn income. Workers develop many skills through formal education not tied to an employer, but an important part of their skills are learned on the job. On-the-Job Training focuses on recent literature including empirical research using direct measures of training and theoretical papers inspired by findings from this empirical work. The authors presents a theoretical model showing that costs and returns to general human capital may be shared if training increases mobility costs, if there are constraints on lowering wages, or if there is uncertainty about the value of training at competing employers. This model analyzes the choice of the amount of training, emphasizing the influence of whether the employer can commit to training prior to employment. In addition, the model implies that firms will attempt to match low-turnover workers with training opportunities, which is supported by the empirical literature.

Ritzen Erasmus University Rotterdam Minister of Education and Science The Netherlands David Stem School of Education University of California, Berkeley Two factors are contributing to an increased interest in the training of adult employees. First, there is the present high rate of change in the technologies embodied in products and in production processes. This enhances the negative effect of the undersupply of training on economic growth. Higher levels of training would provide a more fertile environment for technological change. The second factor is the aging of the population.
