Human Capital Human Development
Human capital consider
education and health as a
means to increase labour
productivity.
Human development considers that
education and health are integral to
human well-being because only
when people have the ability to read
and write and the ability to lead a
long and healthy life, they will be
able to make other choices which
they value.
Human capital treats human
beings as a means to an end; the
end being the increase in
productivity. Any investment in
education and health is
unproductive if it does not
enhance output of goods and
services.
Human welfare should be increased
through investments in education
and health even if such investments
do not result in higher labour
productivity. Therefore, basic
education and basic health are
important in themselves,irrespective
of their contribution to labour
productivity.

Migration
Information
Spending on education by individuals is
similar to spending on capital goods by
companies with the objective of
increasing future profits over a period of
time.
Likewise, individuals invest in education
with the objective of increasing their
future income.
Health isimportant for the development of an
individual.
Medicines, provision for clean drinking water
and good sanitation are various forms of
health expenditures.
Health expenditure directly increases the
supply of healthy labour force and is, thus, a
source of human capital formation
Firms spend on giving on-the job-training totheir workers.This
may take differentforms:
The workers may be trained in the firm itself under the
supervision of a skilled worker.
The workers may be sent for off-campus training.
Inboth these cases firms incur some expenses. Thusthey insist
that the workers should work for a specific period of time, after
their on-the-job training, during which it can recover the
benefits of the enhanced productivity owing to the training.
Expenditure regarding on-the-job training is a source of human
capital formation as the return of such expenditure in the form
of enhanced labour productivity is more than the cost of it.
People migrate insearch ofjobsthat fetch them
higher salaries than what they may get in their native
places.
Unemployment isthe reason for the rural-urban
migration in India. Technically qualified persons, like
engineers and doctors, migrate to other countries
because of higher salaries that they may get in such
countries.
Migration in both these cases involves cost of transport,
higher cost of living in the migrated places and psychic
costs of living in a strange socio-cultural setup.
The enhanced earnings in the new place outweigh the
costs of migration; hence, expenditure on migration is
also a source of human capital formation.
People spend to acquire informationrelatingto
thelabour market and other markets like
education and health.
Thisinformation isnecessary to make
decisions regarding investments in human
capital as well as for efficient utilisation of the
acquired human capitalstock.
Expenditure incurred for acquiringinformation
relating to the labour market and other
markets isalso a source of human capital
formation.
