摘要

企业研究中心附近的平均劳动力教育有利于企业与创新人才的匹配和知识的获取。研究表明，企业研究中心所在的大都市统计区平均教育水平与创新产出的数量和质量呈正相关。通过控制msa层面的经济、人口和就业条件的各种措施，以及控制公司年度固定效应的研究中心层面的分析，结果得到了证实。我们进一步发现，对于位于低教育水平地区的大型、低劳动密集型、非高科技产业的企业来说，当地劳动力教育更为重要。这些证据凸显了获得受过良好教育的当地劳动力对企业创新的重要性。JEL分类:G30、J24、O31

Workforce education and corporate innovation

The average workforce education near firms’ research centers facilitates firms’ matching with innovation talents and acquisition of knowledge. This study documents a positive association between the average education level in the metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) where firms’ research centers are located and the quantity and quality of innovation outputs. The results are confirmed by controlling for various measures of MSA-level economic, population, and employment conditions, as well as research-center level analyses which control for firm-year fixed effects. We further find that local workforce education is more important for firms that are large, less labor-intensive, in non-high-tech industries and located in low education regions. The evidence highlights the importance of having access to well-educated local workforce for corporate innovation. JEL Classification: G30, J24, O31

期刊介绍： The objectives of the Australian Journal of Management are to encourage and publish research in the field of management. The terms management and research are both broadly defined. The former includes the management of firms, groups, industries, regulatory bodies, government, and other institutions. The latter encompasses both discipline- and problem-based research. Consistent with the policy, the Australian Journal of Management publishes research in accounting, applied economics, finance, industrial relations, political science, psychology, statistics, and other disciplines, provided the application is to management, as well as research in areas such as marketing, corporate strategy, operations management, organisation development, decision analysis, and other problem-focuses paradigms.
