Abstract: | We investigated the effect of modern information and communication technologies (ICT), new forms
of workplace organization, and trade (export) activities on the demand for employees with different
levels of (vocational) education for Greek and Swiss enterprises. We found positive (negative) effects
of the use of ICT for high-educated (low-educated) personnel in both countries and mixed effects for
medium-educated employees. New forms of workplace organization do not have uniform effects on
the workforce composition. A positive effect of exports for high-educated employees was traced only
for Swiss firms. |
