Labor Market's in the 21st Century: Skills and Mobility Proceedings of a Joint United States and European Union Conference
Overview Many factors can contribute to productivity improvements, including high levels of enterprise and innovation, high levels of domestic competition, high levels of capital investment, better management and a more highly skilled workforce. There is a well-established relationship between improvements in skills and increased productivity. Growth theory suggests that human capital is one of the prime determinants of labor productivity. Human capital is increased both by formal education and training and by learning-through-doing. Skilled workers can often adapt faster and more effectively to change and may be better at implementing new investments and innovation.
