作者利用1994年对美国企业的调查数据，调查了雇主提供的培训的发生率、内容和程度如何与工作场所的做法和特点、实物资本投资和工人的教育联系在一起。正规培训项目与企业规模、高绩效工作体系（如全面质量管理）、资本密集型生产和工人教育水平呈正相关。计算机和基础教育的“一般”类型的培训课程最有可能在大型机构中进行，这些机构是多机构公司的一部分，员工流动率低，或者具有高绩效的工作系统。接受培训的工人比例在对有形资本进行大量投资或采用新的工作组织形式的企业中最高，特别是在制造业部门。这些结果表明，雇主提供的培训是对实物资本和教育投资的补充，而不是替代。
Using data from a 1994 survey of U.S. establishments, the authors investigate how the incidence, content, and extent of employer-provided training were linked to workplace practices and characteristics, physical capital investments, and workers' education. Formal training programs were positively associated with establishment size, the presence of high-performance work systems (such as Total Quality Management), capital-intensive production, and workers' education level. “General” types of training programs in computing and basic education were most likely in establishments that were large, were part of a multi-establishment firm, had low employee turnover, or had high-performance work systems. The percentage of workers given training was highest in establishments that had made large investments in physical capital or had adopted new forms of work organization, especially in the manufacturing sector. These results suggest that employer-provided training complements rather than substitutes for investments in physical capital and education.
