• Resumen

  • This paper presents a model in which promotion of employees within the internal firm hierarchy is determined by the individuals� allocation of time between promotion/rent-seeking and productive activity. We consider the effect of an increase in the employer�s knowledge (information) regarding the employees� productivity levels on the total time spent by the workers in non-productive promotion-seeking activities.
