Intrafirm labour mobility as element of corporate social responsibility

摘要

This article aims to analyze corporate promotion practice of different worker categories taking into consideration their level of education, work experience and firm-specific capital. The analysis is based on the model of career theory6 proposed by one of its founders - Lorne Carmichael. The basic model was expanded due to taking into account cofactors, having potential impact on the intensity of vertical mobility and salary growth, including personal characteristics of employees. The expanded model has been empirically tested using the authors' micro data on the employees of the Russian industrial enterprise. The main result is that individual characteristics such as gender, marital status, age can influence career prospects, as well as traditional factors such as education, working experience, tenure, etc. The article may be interesting for researchers specializing in Labor economics, corporate and social responsibility and human research management. Results of the research are useful for elaborating personnel promotion policy and identifying career paths.
