This work is devoted to estimating the individual return to worker's professional training. This empirical research is based on unique monthly data, comprised of the personnel records of workers in a Russian metallurgical enterprise between 2006--2010. Using the original time distributed difference-in-differences technique we control for the effect of workers' mobility and the ``non-parallel'' dynamics of earnings in estimates. A qualitative comparison of mobility in trained and control groups is also made by Kaplan-Meier survival curves. The main factors that distinguish this paper from others are the following. (I) We focused on the internal labour market, concluding that it has common peculiarities of wage setting concerned with training as an open labour market. (II) We show that mobility-friendly training programs give high returns, and not only in transition economies. (III) We suggest controlling for mobility by choosing a corresponding control group. (IV) We use a robust new specification that is reactive to different dynamics of the dependent variable in treated and control groups in difference-in-differences estimates. (V) We compared three different kinds of training and our conclusions could have practical application (at least in Russian context). The best way to raise personal earnings is on-the-job training. The internal mobility caused by retraining courses was the same impact on workers as if they lacked retraining. The wages of workers trained in the same field grow randomly for a few months before and after training. Nevertheless it is difficult to prove the causal effect of this kind of training on wage growth.

The work is devoted to estimates of individual returns to additional professional training (APT) on the example of a metallurgical enterprise of Sverdlovsk region of 2006–2010. We compare results of the OLS, fixed effects and difference-in-differences estimators. APTs that expand possibilities of intra firm mobility showed statistically significant influence on wages. The types of training ...

In this article we introduce econometric model specification that describes time-distributed treatment effect basing on the difference-in-differences approach. It gives us possibility to control for mobility in estimates of wage returns to professional training on the data of a Russian enterprise of 2006–2010. We show that wage growth after some kinds of professional trainings is ...

In this paper we compare age-earnings profiles between generations. Our empirical estimates are based on the Russia Longitudinal Monitoring Survey of HSE (RLMS-HSE), 1994–2015. Using intrinsic estimator, we overcome age-period-cohort problem inherent in Mincer-type earnings functions. Comparison presented in the work revealed that some male generations’ income is less than that of the young cohorts ...

Multicollinearity prevents to indentify marginal effects of cohort, age, and period regressors including them all together in Mincerian type earnings function. This is well-known age-period-cohort (APC) problem. Intrinsic estimator helps us to compare age-earnings profiles of several generations in Russia, 1994–2016. Comparison presented in this paper revealed that some male generations’ income is less than ...

Тема мобильности рабочей силы и перемещений работников между состояниями занятости и незанятости, рабочими местами, отраслями и профессиями в настоящий момент является невероятно популярной. Однако она не исчерпывается рассмотрением изменений в объективном положении людей. Субъективная мобильность, т.е. изменение представлений о своем благополучии и месте в обществе, представляет собой еще один важный угол зрения. Имеющиеся данные свидетельствуют ...
