| description |
In the transition to a market economy,
the Russian workforce underwent a wrenching period of
change, with excess supply of some industrial skills
coexisting with reports of skills shortages by many
enterprises. This paper uses data from the Russia
Competitiveness and Investment Climate Survey and related
local research to gain insight into the changing supply and
demand for skills over time, and the potential reasons for
reported staffing problems and skills shortages, including
labor turnover, compensation policies, and the inhibiting
effects of labor regulations. It discusses in-service
training as an enterprise strategy for meeting staffing and
skills needs, and presents evidence on the distribution,
intensity, and determinants of in-service training in
Russia. It investigates the productivity and wage outcomes
of in-service training, and the supportive role of training
in firms' research and development and innovative
activities. A final section concludes with some policy
implications of the findings. |
