Abstract: 
We study the relationship of wages, human capital accumulation and work organisation in Morocco using matched worker-firm data for Metallurgical-electrical and Textile-clothing firms. While wages are found to rise with all human capital characteristics, returns to education and experience are much higher for the upper wages. Participation in on-the-job training is constrained by: a relevant industrial location; a minimal educational background; and an appropriate family situation. Moreover, work organisation and on-thejob training are dependent on the education process. Finally, we find that strong interactions of human capital accumulation with involvement in chain gangs, team work and supervision.
