This article, based on data from the Retirement History Study, examines coverage by an employee pension plan on the longest job and the extent to which covered workers received an employee pension upon retirement and the size of their benefits. It also examines the joint receipt of employee pension and OASDI benefits and the size of the combined benefits. Each of these pension variables is anal...

1) Improved on-time starts and reduced turnover times can increase OR and anesthesia group efficiency, but neither is a measure of (allocative or technical) efficiency.2,3 Suppose every Monday a service has mean ± SD of 7.2 ± 0.5 h of cases. The staffing (allocated time) should be 8 h. If reducing turnovers were to reduce the mean from 7.2 to 6.8 h, there would be no change in staffed hours, ov...

In recent years there has been a growing interest in the impact of co-operative union±management relations on ®rm performance and organizational outcomes such as employee turnover and absenteeism. This paper seeks to identify the factors that affect the development of a co-operative industrial relations climate and analyses the effects of that climate on organizational and union allegiance and ...

In this paper we investigate the reputational penalties to managers of firms announcing earnings restatements. More specifically, we examine management turnover and the subsequent employment of displaced managers at firms announcing earnings restatements during 1997 or 1998. In contrast to prior research (Beneish 1999; Agrawal et al. 1999), which does not find increased turnover following GAAP ...

Here, I turn to Dean Oliver’s “Four Factors of Basketball Success.”i Oliver argues that most the variation in wins can be explained by Shooting, Turnovers, Rebounding and Free Throws. He assigns the weights to each factor, 40%, 25%, 20% and 15%, respectively. In my model, I will determine the coefficients for each factor, which have the greatest predictive power. The four factors are defined in...

How does a firm’s human capital impact financial performance? By directly observing the employment and education trajectories of a significant proportion of U.S. public company employees from 1990 to the present, we explore the relationship between performance and two aspects of human capital: turnover and skills.

Stock option grants have become an increasingly popular component of executive compensation as firms seek to align the interests of executives and shareholders.

In contrast to their increased popularity, the value of executives’ stock option portf...

The continued under-representation of women in information technology (IT) professions has been identified as a serious national and international problem. Increased efforts to encourage female participation are needed not only to achieve gender balance, but also as a means of meeting current and future demands for qualified employees (e.g., Panteli, Stack, Atkinson, and Ramsay, 1999). It is no...

Recent advances in single-molecule techniques allow the application of force to an individual biomolecule whilst simultaneously monitoring its response using fluorescent probes. The effects of applied mechanical load on single-enzyme turnovers, biomolecular interactions and conformational changes can now be studied with nanometer precision and millisecond time resolution.
