摘要

本研究利用日本和韩国的产业数据,探讨老龄化对劳动生产率的影响。分析结果显示,对于日本和韩国来说,高龄劳动者在资本存量中信息通信技术(ICT)比重较大的行业工作时,老龄化对劳动生产率产生了积极影响。我们还发现,平均而言,日本受教育程度低、韩国受教育程度高的老年工人对所有行业的劳动生产率都有积极影响。此外,信息通信技术资本与老年工人之间的互补效应在日本的高学历和低学历工人中都存在,但在韩国只存在于低学历工人中。我们讨论了教育程度、行业特征和生产技术之间的相互作用,以解释两国老年工人生产率的差异。

Aging Labor, ICT Capital, and Productivity in Japan and Korea
This study examines how aging affects labor productivity using industry-level data of Japan and Korea. The analysis shows that, for both Japan and Korea, aging has positive effects on labor productivity when older workers are working in industries with a large share of information and communication technology (ICT) in the capital stock. We also find that, on average, older workers exert positive effects on labor productivity across all industries when they are low-educated in Japan and high-educated in Korea. In addition, a complementary effect between ICT capital and older workers is observed for both high- and low-educated workers in Japan but only for low-educated workers in Korea. We discuss the interplay among educational attainment, industry characteristics, and production techniques to explain the differences between the two countries in the productivity of their older workers.
