本文使用2001年、2006年、2009年和2012年的企业层面面板数据，对日本跨国企业的国内业务重组进行了分析。我们着眼于企业的日常任务强度，研究：（1）什么类型的企业是关闭的或新成立的，（2）什么类型的企业增加或减少他们的就业时，企业成为跨国公司。我们使用职业水平的日常任务强度和每个行业的职业构成来衡量每个机构的技能水平。我们发现，更多的日常任务密集型企业更有可能退出时，公司成为跨国公司。在连续性企业的情况下，当一个公司成为跨国公司时，日常工作不太密集的企业往往有较高的就业增长率。我们的研究结果表明，海外扩张加速了跨国企业内部的国内业务重组，并将国内活动转向日常任务密集度较低的活动。
In this paper, we examine domestic business restructuring by Japanese multinational enterprises by using establishment-level panel data for the years 2001, 2006, 2009, and 2012. Focusing on the routine-task intensity of establishments, we examine: (1) what type of establishments are closed or newly established, and (2) what type of establishments increase or reduce their employment when a firm becomes multinational. We measure the skill level of each establishment using the occupation-level routine-task intensity and the occupation compositions for each industry. We find that more routine-task intensive establishments are more likely to exit when the firm becomes multinational. In the case of continuing establishments, less routine-task intensive establishments tend to have a higher employment growth rate when a firm becomes multinational. Our results imply that overseas expansion accelerates domestic business restructuring within a multinational enterprises and shifts domestic activities toward less routine-task intensive ones.
