The effects of firm and establishment size on the outcomes of on-the-job training is analyzed by employing a unique data set that estimates the relation among employer size and the intensity, duration, and composition of different measures of training. Also, the link between the training cost advantages of large firms and steeper wage profiles is investigated. A model showing that lower per unit costs of formal training may be responsible for differences in training across establishments and firms of different sizes is presented.
Employee benefits costs don't always have to go up. Despite steadily escalating health care delivery costs, some employers are seeing their total health insurance costs increase only marginally or not at all. In the last 90 days there have been more challenges than ever for employers in trying to manage their health care costs. The medical inflation trend is about 11% nationally and continues to go up, Joel D. Davidowski, executive director of employee benefits, Kessler Advisors, says. Kessler says the agency serves a wide range of employer groups but specializes in mid-sized firms with 100 to 1000 employees. Groups of this size range provide the best economies of scale for the agency and the best opportunities for more sophisticated plan design and cost management solutions, CEO Steven...

[Sibongile] ended up using her family's savings, along with her mother's and aunt's retirement funds, to finance the first deal: leasing a plane from the Russian Federation. "I remember waiting for days at the airport for the plane to arrive, panicking that after paying so much money and risking people's savings it may not arrive." But all went well in the end, and Sibongile's business took off.1 Before the new law took effect in Cambodia, business owners could use only immovable property as collateral. With little land under private ownership, getting a loan was an unreachable dream for most small to medium-size businesses. The new law changed that. Cambodian entrepreneurs can now use a broad range of movable assets to secure a loan. That includes revolving assets such as inventory and...

An excerpt from CUES Complete Guide to Credit Union Facilities is presented. In the mid 1990's, Bill Gates predicted bank branches would be dead in 10 years. In 2002, he reversed his opinion and started to discuss the need for an integration of technologies and physical banking environments. And, in late 2008 Microsoft's Banking Division started offering its Microsoft Surface software for information gathering by tellers and members in branches. The only ways for most medium and large credit unions to reduce operations staff and facility square feet-to-assets ratios is through the use of time-saving software, outsourcing or increasing in size to gain the resulting economies of scale.

Kyrgyz reformers didn't stop there. A presidential decree eliminated the location permit, which had required the signature of Bishkek's mayor and took 60 days to obtain. "It used to be a nightmare. You never knew what additional papers would be required," says Bekbolot, owner of a medium-size construction company. The mayor's office no longer handles occupancy permits either. "It took me 6 months before the reforms, and I still could not obtain the mayor's signature. After the reforms, it took me just over a week to get my occupancy permit signed and sealed. Burkina Faso, once among the bottom 10 on the ease of , was the second fastest reformer. A multifaceted reform program cut 12 days and reduced the cost by 25%. To start, a government decree limited ...
