Abstract	The identification of an individual's knowledge, competences and skills as well as their acquisition, maintenance and upgrading, i. e. the input side to human capital, is only rarely related to the output, i. e. human capital, irrespective of the former being the very substance in the latter: This lack of interconnection is primarily due to different traditions where human capital is considered in purely economic terms whereas the individual's acquisition of knowledge is primarily related to the pedagogical, sociological and psychological fields. One reason for this being, of course, that the notion of human capital does originate from within economy and, further, that economists still relate human capital primarily to the enterprise level and/or at macro-economic level while generally neglecting the individual's level. In this paper human capital is defined as 'the knowledge, skills, competences and other attributes embodied in individuals or groups of individuals acquired during their life and used to produce goods, services or ideas in market circumstances'. The paper will focus an the enterprise level and primarily with an economic perspective, but, as indicated above, other levels and dimensions will play a significant role throughout the paper. This is particularly the case when it comes to reporting on human capital, and when it comes to an analysis of the interests of the main stakeholders. (DIPF/Ba.).
