abstract: 'Less-educated workers have the lowest participation rates in job-related
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
further training across the industrialized world, but the extent of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their disadvantage varies. Using data on 28 high- and middle-income
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
countries, we assess different explanations for less-educated workers''
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
training disadvantage relative to intermediate-educated workers, with a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
focus on the role of labor market allocation (i.e. job tasks, other job
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
features and firm characteristics). Shapley decompositions reveal a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
broadly similar pattern for all countries: differences in labor market
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
allocation between less- and intermediate-educated workers are more
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
important for explaining the training gap than differences in individual
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
learning disposition (i.e. cognitive skills and motivation to learn).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our analysis further suggests that the training gap is related to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
educational and labor market institutions and that labor market
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
allocation processes play a key role in mediating any institutional
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`effects''. Strong conclusions regarding the role of institutions are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hampered by the small country-level sample, however.'
