On-the-Job Training

"On-the-Job Training surveys the recent literature from both a theoretical and empirical perspective. The analysis of how individuals obtain and are paid for their skills is fundamental to labor economics. The basic idea of human capital theory is that workers and firms invest in workers skills in order to increase their productivity, much as persons invest in financial or physical assets to earn income. Workers develop many skills through formal education not tied to an employer, but an important part of their skills are learned on the job."--BOOK JACKET.Frazis, Harley is the author of 'On-the-Job Training', published 2007 under ISBN 9781601980021 and ISBN 1601980027.
