Apprenticeship training , job mobility , occupational mobility , wages
Abstract:
Distinguishing carefully between mobility across firms and across occupations,
this study provides causal estimates of the wage effects of mobility
among graduates from apprenticeship in Germany. Our instrumental variables
approach exploits variation in regional labor market characteristics. Pure firm
changes and occupation-and-job changes after graduation from apprenticeship
result in average wage losses, whereas an occupation change within the training
firm results in persistent wage gains. For the majority of cases a change
of occupation involves a career progression. In contrast, for job switches the
wage loss dominates.
