Job Mobility and Earnings over the Life Cycle.
Borjas, George J.
Industrial and Labor Relations Review, v34 n3 p365-76 Apr 1981
The prospect of a job change for any reason creates a disincentive for a worker to invest in training that is specific to the current job, and therefore those who change jobs frequently may earn less over their life cycle than those who, other things equal, seldom change jobs. (Author/CT)
