EIA-0306012Peter CappelliInstitution: National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER)Title: The Impact of Information Technology Use on Employee Demography and Employer-Provided TrainingThis ITWF award provides support to analyze national data on establishments, their characteristics, and the experiences of their employees to examine questions concerning the relationship between information technology (IT) use by employers and employment related outcomes. The project will first analyze the distribution of women and minorities in IT jobs, as classified not only by the tasks employees perform but the IT systems in place at work. It will then explore factors that explain the incidence of women and minorities across IT jobs, including aspects such as career paths (e.g., internal promotions and temp-to-permanent tracks) and how employees are managed. Finally, it will explore how attributes of IT use relate to employer-provided training: Do IT-intensive employers provide more IT training, especially to their IT workers? When they provide IT training, do they offer credentials for it? If so, what accounts for their ability to provide such general training?The investigators will examine these questions using unique data from the National Employer Surveys of the U.S. Bureau of the Census. These establishment surveys, conducted in 1994, 1997, and 2000, identify important characteristics about employers including their use of IT and their general management practices. The 2000 version also contains a Supplement that surveys employees in these establishments. It identifies IT-related tasks, IT-related training, and demographic attributes of employees such as whether they are women or minorities. These data will be enhanced by information from the Census of Manufacturing Supplement on Information Technology, also conducted in 2000, which has especially good measures of various IT interventions. The data from these different sources will be merged, allowing examination of relationships not only with individual-level IT tasks, such as programming, but also with the use of specific IT systems, such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP). The combination of more detailed measures of IT use and information about individual IT workers will allow more careful analysis than ever before of relationships between IT use and employeecharacteristics and employment outcomes. In particular, rather than classifying workers crudely into "IT" or "Non-IT" jobs (in the past typically based on the employer's product market), the analyses can examine relationships between the extent of IT use and important job outcomes, especially for women and minorities.

EIA-0306012 Peter Cappelli机构：国家经济研究局（NBER）标题：信息技术使用对员工人口统计和雇主提供的培训的影响ITWF奖项提供支持，分析有关企业的国家数据，其特征，以及员工的经验，以研究有关雇主使用信息技术（IT）与就业相关结果之间关系的问题。该项目将首先分析妇女和少数民族在信息技术工作中的分布情况，不仅按雇员执行的任务分类，而且按工作中使用的信息技术系统分类。 然后，它将探讨解释妇女和少数民族在IT工作中发生率的因素，包括职业道路等方面（例如，内部晋升和临时晋升到永久职位）以及如何管理员工。 最后，它将探讨如何属性的IT使用与雇主提供的培训：IT密集型雇主提供更多的IT培训，特别是对他们的IT工人？ 当他们提供IT培训时，他们是否提供证书？ 如果是这样，它们为什么有能力提供这种一般性培训？调查人员将使用美国人口普查局全国雇主调查的独特数据来研究这些问题。这些在1994年、1997年和2000年进行的机构调查确定了雇主的重要特征，包括他们使用信息技术和他们的一般管理做法。2000年版还载有一份补编，对这些机构的雇员进行了调查。它确定了与IT相关的任务，与IT相关的培训以及员工的人口统计属性，例如他们是女性还是少数民族。同样在2000年进行的关于信息技术的制造业补充普查提供的信息将加强这些数据，该普查对各种信息技术干预措施有特别好的衡量。来自这些不同来源的数据将被合并，不仅可以检查与个人级别IT任务（例如编程）的关系，还可以检查与特定IT系统（例如企业资源规划（ERP））的使用的关系。 结合更详细的信息技术使用的措施和个人信息技术工作者的信息，将允许比以往任何时候都更仔细地分析信息技术使用和业务特征和就业结果之间的关系。特别是，这些分析不是将工人粗略地分为“信息技术”或“非信息技术”工作（过去通常根据雇主的产品市场），而是可以审查信息技术使用程度与重要工作成果之间的关系，特别是对妇女和少数群体而言。
