Abstract
This study is based on the sample
correlations arrived at by different
studies. Though a number of
studies indicate that there is
weak or no relationship between
training and productivity, the
present meta-analysis indicates
that the training provided to employees
does have a significant
effect on productivity. The
present study finds that there is
a moderate (mean) relationship
between training and productivity
of employees. Training affects
productivity across-the-board i.
e. for top-level managers, medium
level managers and bottom-line
employees. However, certain
moderator variables e.g. citizenship
of the sample may influence
the magnitude of the effect of
training on the productivity.
