Introduction: the role of multinational firms (MNFs)
    MNFs are large employment providers ...

    … but MNFs may be characterised by higher employment volatility
              international reallocation is easier

              home bias in adverse time



    Two reasons of employment losses
              firm exit

              labour adjustment by incumbents



→ outline of the talk

              Employment dynamics during the crisis : firm exit vs incumbents adjustment

              The footlose nature of multinationals

              Labour adjustment costs



INTRODUCTION      EMPLOYMENT DYNAMICS        PROBABILITY OF EXIT   LABOUR ADJUSTMENT COSTS   CONCLUSION
Employment dynamics during the crisis
   Job creation - job destruction (Davis, Haltiwanger and Schuh, 1996)



   Dataset and variables definition
              sources: Survey on FDI + (annualised) annual accounts
              sample: manufacturing, construction and market services over 1997-2010
              exit in t if in t+1 no employment, no total assets, tangible fixed assets<100.
              MNF if owned by at least 50% by a foreign company, or having outwards FDI of at

INTRODUCTION         EMPLOYMENT DYNAMICS            PROBABILITY OF EXIT     LABOUR ADJUSTMENT COSTS   CONCLUSION
Labour adjustment costs of incumbents
   Labour adjustment of incumbents

              Barba Navarretti, Checci, Turini (2003) estimate labour demand equations

               and find that MNFs adjust employment faster than domestic firms

         →     suggests lower adjustment costs


   Why would adjustment costs be different?

         all firms operating in Belgium face the same labour market legislation and institutions?

         economies of scale in human resources management, no labour indivisibility issues

         use of flexible contracts and procedures

         higher bargaining power wrt governments and unions (Haskel et al. 2007)

         international production scope allows for employment reallocation

          → reallocation threat that reinforces bargaining power

Labour adjustment costs of incumbents: derivation
   Adjustment costs function (Alonso-Borrego, 1998)



        differences between blue-collar workers and white-collar workers
        convexity: aB and aW
        asymmetry: when dB, dW<0 downsizing cost are larger than upsizing costs
        cross adjustment term: when g<0,
         adjusting both LB and LW in the same direction reduces costs
         but substitution between LB and LW increases costs


   Euler equation for worker-type j

INTRODUCTION        EMPLOYMENT DYNAMICS             PROBABILITY OF EXIT      LABOUR ADJUSTMENT COSTS      CONCLUSION
Conclusion
1. MNFs are large emplyoment providers --- but ajust more and differently
   e.g. during 2008-2009
    most employment losses in domestic firms were due to exits
    most employment losses in MNFs due to employment cuts by incumbents

2. Differences in exit probabilities
    MNFs have a smaller unconditional probability of exit than domestic firms
    Controlling for firm and sector-level characteristics, MNFs have a significantly higher
       probability of exit than domestic firms, but the difference is small (5.8 pp)

3. Differences in labour adjustment costs
    adjustment costs are smaller for MNFs, especially for white-collar workers
    not (or only very partially )explained by flexible labour management practices or firm size
    → possible interpretation stronger bargaining power vis-à-vis unions and governements
    thanks to threat of closure/delocalisation?

  • 13. The probability of firm exit  Firm-level variables  size (measured by employment) and age  TFP estimated using Ackerberg et al. procedure extended to account for firm exit  sunk costs = fraction of investment (in tangible and intangible capital) that is not leased and cannot be resold on second-hand market I I leased K K leased sunkit = (P itIit - P itI it) + (1-δit)(1-γit).(P it-1Kit-1 -Pit-1K it-1) δ : depreciation rate measured by the yearly sector-level mean γ : resale rate, approximated by the average sector-level ratio of sales and disposals over the capital stock. sunk costs represent barriers to entry and are lost in case of exit → barriers to exit in the case re-entry is likely.  Sector-level variables  sector growth of value added  competition: Herfindahl index of firm' turnover → MNFs are larger, older, more productive and bear larger sunk costs they operate in sectors with higher growth and lower competition INTRODUCTION EMPLOYMENT DYNAMICS PROBABILITY OF EXIT LABOUR ADJUSTMENT COSTS CONCLUSION

  • 17. Labour adjustment costs of incumbents  Labour adjustment of incumbents  Barba Navarretti, Checci, Turini (2003) estimate labour demand equations and find that MNFs adjust employment faster than domestic firms → suggests lower adjustment costs  Why would adjustment costs be different?  all firms operating in Belgium face the same labour market legislation and institutions?  economies of scale in human resources management, no labour indivisibility issues  use of flexible contracts and procedures  higher bargaining power wrt governments and unions (Haskel et al. 2007)  international production scope allows for employment reallocation → reallocation threat that reinforces bargaining power INTRODUCTION EMPLOYMENT DYNAMICS PROBABILITY OF EXIT LABOUR ADJUSTMENT COSTS CONCLUSION

INTRODUCTION EMPLOYMENT DYNAMICS PROBABILITY OF EXIT LABOUR ADJUSTMENT COSTS CONCLUSION
  • 37. Conclusion 1. MNFs are large emplyoment providers --- but ajust more and differently e.g. during 2008-2009  most employment losses in domestic firms were due to exits  most employment losses in MNFs due to employment cuts by incumbents 2. Differences in exit probabilities  MNFs have a smaller unconditional probability of exit than domestic firms  Controlling for firm and sector-level characteristics, MNFs have a significantly higher probability of exit than domestic firms, but the difference is small (5.8 pp) 3. Differences in labour adjustment costs  adjustment costs are smaller for MNFs, especially for white-collar workers  not (or only very partially )explained by flexible labour management practices or firm size  → possible interpretation stronger bargaining power vis-à-vis unions and governements  thanks to threat of closure/delocalisation?
