Abstract

In this paper we investigate the relationship between firm-provided training and transitions out of employment in Spain. Using microeconomic data for Spain obtained from the first wave of the European Community Household Panel (ECHP), we apply a recursive model with qualitative variables. The main result is that workers who receive training during 1993 face a lower probability of being non-employed in the following year than workers who did not receive training. Also, there is strong evidence that a stable employment realitonship increases the probability of receiving training within the firm.
