Abstract: We use a model of the diffusion of knowledge which considers one of the principal forms of training found within firms: learning by watching. Using a French INSEE matched employee-employer survey (Le coût de la main d'oeuvre et la structure des salaires 1992, ECMOSS 92), we propose an econometric measure of on-the-job training. The results show that on-the-job training amounts to 42.75 hours in the mean by year and represents nearly 80% of the total training in the firm. The richness of the model presented here consists in the estimation not only of on-the-job training, but also of the speed of knowledge diffusion in an establishment and the relative knowledge of firm (relative to that of a new worker)
