DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The primary objectives of this proposal are to understand how immigrants and firms interact in the economy and how this interaction affects both immigrant success and native-born displacement. Our specific aims are: (1) To describe the rate of wage assimilation exploiting the panel nature of the newly developed longitudinal employer-employee matched data-sets (in the LEHD project at Census). Does the rate of wage convergence vary by date of arrival? Does the rate of convergence vary by country of origin? (2) To explain what factors are associated with the rate of wage convergence of immigrants? Do the characteristics of firms that employ immigrants help explain wage assimilation? For example, does the concentration of workers from the immigrant's home country, the size of firm and the other productive characteristics of firms change the rate of wage convergence? Do employment choices that immigrants make upon arrival in the U.S. affect the long-term prospects of immigrants? (3) To explore the relative success or failure of native-born workers to respond to competition from immigrant workers? How much do worker characteristics such as the level of human capital or tenure in an industry matter? How much do firm choices such as changes in the types of technology or worker mix matter for the impact of immigrant flows on native born workers, (4) To describe the displacement of native-born workers from firms. When a firm begins to hire immigrants which native-born workers exit the firm? For example is it older or younger workers, workers with more or less tenure with the firm? (5) To describe what happens to displaced native-born workers. Do they work for other firms in related industries? Do they migrate to other locations?

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案的主要目标是了解移民和企业如何在经济中相互作用，以及这种相互作用如何影响移民的成功和本土出生的流离失所。我们的具体目标是：（1）利用新开发的纵向雇主-雇员匹配数据集（在人口普查的LEHD项目中）的面板性质来描述工资同化率。工资衔接率是否因抵达日期而异？趋同速度是否因原籍国而异？(2)解释哪些因素与移民工资趋同率有关？雇佣移民的公司的特征有助于解释工资同化吗？例如，来自移民母国的工人的集中度、企业的规模和企业的其他生产特征是否会改变工资趋同的速度？移民在抵达美国后所做的就业选择是否会影响移民的长期前景？(3)探讨本地出生的工人在应对来自移民工人的竞争时的相对成功或失败？工人的特征，如人力资本水平或在一个行业的任期有多大的影响？企业的选择，如技术类型或工人组合的变化，对移民流动对本地出生的工人的影响有多大的影响？（4）描述本地出生的工人从企业的位移。当一家公司开始雇佣移民时，哪些本地出生的工人会离开公司？例如，它是年长的还是年轻的工人，在公司工作的工人是多是少？(5)来描述流离失所的本地出生的工人会发生什么。他们是否为相关行业的其他公司工作？他们会迁移到其他地方吗？
