      Contents

      Personnel economic practices are numerous and changing (recruitment, remuneration, promotion, evaluation, training). The introduction briefly presents each of these practices, while two of them will be presented into detail. Econometric estimation techniques applied to panel data will also be approached, and then students will have to analyze the influence of a practice of personnel economics on a variable of performance, using the econometric software Stata.
