Details | This study highlighted the institutional aspects of the task approach and quantitatively showed the mechanisms of tasks, skills, and wage determination through the operations of the internal labor market. As a skill measure, intellectual skills to deal with changes and problems in the workplace were employed. Using an original survey from Japan, it was found that the internal labor market-oriented skill formation system affects task allocation. The most important finding was that task polarization occurs through the skill-formation system as a subsystem of internal labor market. This result suggests the possibility of controlling task distribution through internal labor market design. |
