Résumé
In this paper we use three alternative (and complementary) data sources to measure the proportion of workers who paticipate in on-the job training, we discuss its advantages and disadvantages and investigate the profile of workers who carried out the training. In addition, we analyze the intensity of the training measured by the time spent by workers. The results suggest that it is more likely that a worker takes part in training activities the higher is his/her education level, the more qualified is his/her occupation and the larger the size of the firm. We have also found evidence that the intensity of training (time spent on it) is higher among workers with temporary contracts and less tenure in his job.
