Offshoring, Transition, and Training: Evidence from Danish Matched Worker-Firm Data
利用丹麦匹配的工人-企业-贸易数据和详细的个人培训数据,研究发现离岸外包企业中被解雇的工人比普通失业者参加更多职业培训,且更难重新就业;在职员工也更多参与培训。
We combine matched Danish worker-firm-trade data with detailed individual-worker training data. We find: 1) workers displaced from offshoring firms take up more vocational-training and have a harder time getting re-attached to the labor-force than other displaced workers, and they also exhibit higher vocational-training take-up rates 2 years before layoffs; 2) the staying workers with offshoring firms take up more vocational-training than those with non-offshoring firms; and 3) the post-secondary-training take-up rates for displaced workers are no different than for the general population.
