Abstract
It is important when studying a manpower system to be able to measure stability of the experience distribution and thus evade possible trauma. This paper develops the use of entropy as such a measure, both for the comparison of different companies in steady state, and as a means of monitoring the changes in tenure distribution in time for a particular firm. It is shown for several companies that the entropy measure does in fact reflect the changes in length of service structure taking place within the firm.
