对组织学习和遗忘的研究确定了企业生产经验流失的潜在渠道。这些渠道有不同的影响，有效的资源配置在公司内，但它们的相对重要性被忽视的日期。我们开发了一个框架，区分劳动力流动和人力资本折旧的组织遗忘的贡献。我们将我们的框架应用于救护车公司及其员工的新数据集。我们发现组织遗忘的证据，这是由于技能衰减和营业额的影响。后者的规模是前者的两倍。(JEL D23、D83、J24、J63）
Studies of organizational learning and forgetting identify potential channels through which the firm's production experience is lost. These channels have differing implications for efficient resource allocation within the firm, but their relative importance has been ignored to date. We develop a framework for distinguishing the contributions of labor turnover and human capital depreciation to organizational forgetting. We apply our framework to a novel dataset of ambulance companies and their workforce. We find evidence of organizational forgetting, which results from skill decay and turnover effects. The latter has twice the magnitude of the former. (JEL D23, D83, J24, J63)
