Abstract

Este artículo utiliza un marco de datos de empresas de alrededor del mundo para comparar los indicadores de empleo de empresas privatizadas, privadas y publicas. Este estudio se concentra particularmente en salarios, beneficios, composición de la mano de obra, educación, entrenamiento, sindicalismo, y la calidad de la gerencia. Aunque la productividad de la mano de obra incrementó después de la privatización, el índice de trabajadores permanentes en comparación a trabajadores temporales también aumentó. La convergencia depende en la calidad de las instituciones, básicamente el estado de derecho. Esto no es solo verdad del índice de trabajadores permanentes a trabajadores temporales, pero también de la educación de la mano de obra, y de los años de experiencia de la gerencia. En lo contrario, el estado de derecho parece ser menos importante en el caso de productividad y entrenamiento de la mano de obra.
