Job satisfaction and employer‐sponsored training
本文通过控制个体固定效应和雇主固定效应等方法，发现参与雇主资助的培训能显著提升工作满意度，并降低离职倾向，而其他类型培训则无此效果。
Abstract This article examines whether participation in employer‐sponsored training has a causal impact on job satisfaction by accounting for individual fixed effects, individual‐by‐employer fixed effects and controlling for promotions in a sub‐sample of the data to address the endogeneity of participation arising from within employer job changes. The estimates show a consistent, positive effect of participation in employer‐sponsored training on job satisfaction. Conversely, participation in other types of training does not have a significant impact upon job satisfaction. Additionally, participation in employer‐sponsored training has a strong, negative correlation with turnover even while controlling for job satisfaction. Training does not exhibit a lasting effect of either job satisfaction or turnover.
