We construct an index of workers’perceived job match quality from five survey questions on job satisfaction and on how a worker’s education and skills match with the job. Based on a dynamic linear panel data model, which accounts for potential endogeneity in training, we find that training has significantly positive short-and long-term effects on job match quality. This is mainly driven by training for human capital accumulation. Further analysis incorporating job changes shows that training for job change purpose increases the probability to change jobs, but job changes immediately following this type of training do not significantly increase job match quality. On the other hand, those who change jobs 1 year after this training do tend to get a better-matched job.  \nKeywords Training · Job match quality · Human capital · Job changes JEL Classification C23 · J24 · J28 · M53  \n1 Introduction  \nJob match quality is increasingly recognized as an important predictor not only of individuals’ psychological, social, and economic well-being, but also of firm pro-  \nElectronic supplementary material The online version of this article ([https://doi.org/10.1007/s00181-](https://doi.org/10.1007/s00181-)  \n[020-01833-3](020-01833-3)) [contains supplementary material](contains supplementary material), [which is available to authorized users](which is available to authorized users).  \nB Yi Zhang [y.zhang_3@hotmail.com](y.zhang_3@hotmail.com)  \n1 China Center for Human Capital and Labor Market Research, Central University of Finance and Economics, 39 South College Road, Haidian District, Beijing, P.R.

Individual-level analyses have shown that low job match quality, or mismatch, is closely associated with wage penalties, absenteeism, high turnover, and other negative labor market outcomes, even controlling for wages, working hours, and standard demographic and job characteristics (Vahey 2000; Dolton and Vignoles 2000; Allen and van der Velden 2001; Clark 2001; Green and Zhu 2010; Nordin et al. 2010; Mavromaras et al. 2013; Pecoraro 2014; Congregado et al. 2016) . Firm-level meta-analysis finds that higher job match quality is related to higher employee engagement and firm profitability and productivity (Harter et al. 2002) .  \nMoreover,“improving job match quality” is a strategic goal of the European Union: the 10-year strategy of Europe 2020 identifies “better matching labor supply and demand” and “developing skills throughout the lifecycle” as new engines to boost economic growth and to increase job quality.1 The recent Strategic Framework for Health and Safety at Work 2014–2020 emphasizes the importance of improving job quality for the competitiveness and productivity of European companies.2  \nIn spite of the acknowledged importance of job match quality, there is limited empirical research on how job match quality can be improved. A possible measure to improve job match quality that has been frequently discussed is training. However, studies that aim to estimate the effect of training on job match quality face two challenges. First, there is no unanimous definition of job match quality, and second, it is difficult to identify a causal effect of training on job match quality.  \nThe quality of a job match indicates how well the characteristics of a worker match those of a job. Job match quality can be defined either from the worker’s perspective (Kalleberg and Vaisey 200","cbCaic5ldKAWMZlc","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaic5ldKAWMZlc","pdf",508288,22,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Job match quality and its significance\n## Challenges in estimating training effects\n## Measuring job match quality\n## Training definition and causal framework","[{\"question\":\"How is job match quality measured in the study?\",\"answer\":\"It uses workers’ perceived job match quality derived from factor analysis of five survey questions covering educational match, skill match, and job satisfaction.\"},{\"question\":\"What modeling approach is used to estimate the training effect?\",\"answer\":\"A dynamic linear panel data model is applied, explicitly accounting for potential endogeneity in training.\"},{\"question\":\"Does training lead to immediate improvements through job changes?\",\"answer\":\"Training for job change increases the probability of changing jobs, but job changes immediately following this type of training do not significantly increase job match quality; job changes one year later tend to yield better matches.\"}]","The effect of training on workers’ perceived job match quality | PDF",55]
