Dividing the Costs and Returns to General Training Journal of Labor Economics 16,1 (January 1998): 142-171. Also: http://stats.bls.gov/oreec/ec940100.htm Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: University of Chicago Press Keyword(s): Training; Training, Employee; Training, On-the-Job; Wage Dynamics; Wage Models Data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth indicate that the employer often pays the explicit costs of not only on-site training but also off-site general training. Although few of these costs appear to be passed on to workers in the form of a lower wage while in training, completed spells of general training paid for by previous employers have a larger wage effect than completed spells of general training paid for by the current employer. A model where contract enforcement considerations cause employers to share the costs and returns to purely general training can explain these findings. Copyright is not claimed for this article. |
