本研究利用一项新的公司调查,调查了出口对缅甸工作条件的影响。为了识别,我利用缅甸的快速开放来进行贸易,同时该公司靠近机场和产品,这些产品在进入外国市场方面产生了变化。结果表明,出口对消防安全,健康管理和谈判自由的工作条件有显着的积极影响;对工资的积极影响不显着;对工作时间的消极影响不显着。我还发现,出口积极影响企业规模,管理实践,并接受劳动力审计的可能性。
This study investigates the impacts of exporting on working conditions in Myanmar by drawing on a new firm survey. For the identification, I use the rapid opening of Myanmar to trade alongside the firm's proximity to airports and products that have generated variations in access to foreign markets. The results show that exporting has significant positive impacts on working conditions regarding fire safety, health management, and freedom of negotiation; positive insignificant effects on wages; and negative insignificant effects on working hours. I also find that exporting positively affects firm size, management practices, and the likelihood of receiving a labor audit.
