Labour economics and healthcare professional education
author
Abstract:
Healthcare professional education is the undergraduate, postgraduate and continuing professional development for doctors, nurses and allied healthcare professionals. Labour economics is the relationship between workers and employers, and the resultant effect on employment and wages. Healthcare professional education ultimately produces a workforce, and that workforce is governed by the rules of labour economics like any other workforce. Despite all of these largely incontrovertible facts, there has been remarkably little interest in the relationship between healthcare professional education and labour economics. This short article attempts to redress this shortcoming by describing some of the factors that can affect healthcare professional education and labour economics, and aims to mention some of the methods in which these two disciplines can interact with each other.

full textForging Modern Labour Economics
Labour economics is often taken by vivid discussions about the specificity of the labour market and the need to develop a different approach, away from the current standard microeconomics. What is often forgotten is that this was not always the case. Labour research in the interwar years was quite different from what we regard presently as labour economics, being much more broadly and loosely d...
