劳动力成本上升对出口竞争力影响实证研究——基于制造业面板模型

A Research on the Impact of Labor Costs Increase on the Export Competitiveness:Based on the Analysis of Manufacturing Panel Data

随着我国人口结构的变动,劳动力成本持续上升。利用我国制造业分行业面板数据,分析劳动力成本上升对制造业整体出口竞争力的影响,并针对不同要素密集型行业做进一步研究。结果发现,劳动力成本上升抑制了制造业整体的出口竞争力。劳动力成本上升对劳动密集型行业的出口竞争力有着显著的负向影响,对资本密集型行业却有正向的影响,对技术密集型行业的影响不显著。

With the change of population structure,labor costs keeps rising.The paper empirical tests the overall impact of labor costs rise on manufacturing export competitiveness.It also probes into its impact on different factor-intensive industries with panel date in Chinese manufacturing industry.The study shows that the increase of labor costs has restrained the export competitiveness of overall manufacturing industry.Seeing from factor-intensive industries,the increase of labor costs has a significant negative influence for export competitiveness of labor-intensive industries,and positive influence for capital-intensive industries while no significant influence for technology-intensive industries.
