Microeconometoric Analysis on Shop Floor Level Productivity

我们考虑了工作培训的需求及其与组织变革的相互作用，通过团队内部的轮换和跨团队的搬迁来应对生产力冲击。分析包括在职培训的决定因素的估计，以及培训是否有助于提高个人生产力。我们采用了来自两家日本汽车制造商的原始装配工调查数据。还包括部门领班的特点和工作场所的做法，以调查它们对个别装配工人寻求职业培训和提高生产率的激励的影响。

We consider the demand for job training and its interaction with organization change through rotation within a team and relocation across teams in response to productivity shocks. The analysis includes the estimation of the determinant of on-the-job training and whether training contributes to improvements in individual productivity. We employ original assembler survey data from two Japanese automobile makers. The characteristics of divisional foremen and workplace practices are also included to investigate their effects on the incentives for individual assemblers to seek job training and productivity improvements.
