A Meta-Analysis Of Government-Sponsored Training Programs, David H. Greenberg, Charles Michalopoulos, Philip K. Robins

Economics Articles and Papers

This study uses meta-analysis to synthesize findings from 31 evaluations of 15 voluntary government-funded training programs for the disadvantaged that operated between 1964 and 1998. On average, the earnings effects of the evaluated programs seem to have been largest for women, quite modest for men, and negligible for youths. For men and women, the earnings effects of training appear to have persisted for at least several years after the training was complete. Classroom skills training was apparently effective in increasing earnings, but basic education was not. There is no evidence that more expensive training programs performed better than less expensive …

Labor Disputes In Contract Law: The Past And Present Of Alaska Packers’ Ass’N V. Domenico, Debora L. Threedy

Texas Wesleyan Law Review

In Part II, I will give a brief recapitulation of the facts and background of Alaska Packers' as revealed by my digging into the case. In Part III, I will briefly discuss the doctrinal evolution of duress and the pre-existing duty rule before and after Alaska Packers' and conclude that this evolution complicates, but does not negate, Professor Snyder's insight into the "pernicious effect" of labor disputes on the development of contract doctrine. Finally, in Part IV, I will point out the continuing relevance of the case to the intersection of labor and contracts, and suggest that a hundred years …

The Slipperiness Of Stability: Contracting For Flexible And Triangular Employment Relationships In The New Economy, Orly Lobel

Texas Wesleyan Law Review

This Article argues for the need for new laws and adequate guidelines for today's flexible staffing arrangements. Flexible employment arrangements in the new market are simultaneously efficiency-driven and developed through continuous political and legal action. While the employment agency industry is potentially a welfare-enhancing sector in certain environments, it also produces new forms of mistreatment of workers in the absence of adequate regulatory incentives. These new economic structures necessitate the development of a new normative model that allows certain forms of market flexibility yet maintains the social norms that continue to inform fair employment policies. Part II of this Article …

The Validity Of A Restraint Of Trade Clause In South Africa As A Contractual Term In An Employment Contract, Marlize Van Jaarsveld

What follows is a reflection on the history and the validity of restraint of trade clauses as contractual terms in South African employment contracts. The Article is divided into seven parts. Part I deals with the general meaning of restraint of trade clauses and the reasons for including these clauses in employment contracts. This is followed by a discussion of the then-uncertain status of restraint of trade clauses in South African employment contracts until 1984, when the status of restraint clauses in contracts was finally addressed. In Part III, the consequences of the Appeal Court's 1984 groundbreaking decision in Magna …
