Technological change and inequality in further training: After IT investments, further training increases, especially for higher qualified employees

Abstract

"Firms use further training to adapt the skills of employees to new demands –especially important during digital transformation. This study shows that in firms investing in digital technologies, training rates increase more for higher qualified employees compared to low qualified employees. Within larger firms and in knowledge-intensive sectors, the changes in qualification-specific further training rates after IT investments differ less." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
