Labour & employmentIntra-Production Line Soft Skill Productivity SpilloversUntrained workers on treatment lines accrued 8.02 additional person days during treatment (p < 0.05) and experienced efficiency gains of 7.14 percentage points post-treatment (over two-thirds the size of direct treatment effects), leading to an overall line-level efficiency increase of 4.31 percentage points (p < 0.05).RCTFirms & operationsIntra-Firm Knowledge Spillovers vs. Inter-Firm Spillover FrictionNonexperimental plants within treatment firms increased management practice adoption by 17.5 percentage points without direct consulting, mirroring the 12.0 percentage point increase in control plants. Conversely, inter-firm spillovers were negligible: only 16% of 96 independent local firms had heard of the experiment and only 2% knew specific details, localized exclusively to Tarapur and Umbergaon.RCT
