Research Abstract |
We've attempted to develop a personnel data depository that allows us to use individual worker information on productivity and wages in order to assess the roles of the internal labor marlet and the effects of personnel policy changes. The project is a collaboration with Works Applications, Inc., a ERP package developer-seller, and the Research Institute of Economy, Trade, and the Industry. We obtained and analyzed personnle records from two large Japanese manufacturers, and revealed novel findings such as: (1) the gender gap in pay and promotion within organization is large explained by career interruption after childbirths and large gender gap in working hours; and (2) the cohort size, the number of new empoyees in a given year, is negatively associated with the promotion rate and the wage in the future, implying that workers who graduated during the "ice age" in early 1990s may have better lives than older or younger ones given that they are lucky enough to enter large companies.
