Findings underscore the importance of investing in human capital as a strategy for productivity growth.

Abstract

The primary objective of the paper is to examine the hypothesis that human capital affects labor productivity directly and indirectly. The paper investigates this relationship using data from 1991 to 2019 for BRICS-T countries, with panel fixed effects and panel random effects models. Moreover, the paper employs the standard error method to examine the marginal effects of trade openness, savings, labor market reforms, and information and communication technology on labor productivity. According to the analysis results, we find strong evidence supporting the hypothesis that human capital influences not only labor productivity directly but also indirectly. The marginal effects of all variables used in the study are also found to be statistically significant.
