| 内容提要 | 本文首次以《劳动合同法》的实施为契机，实证分析了我国A股制造业上市公司2004 -2011年的人工成本粘性变化，并在此基础上进一步检验了企业用机器设备替代人工的应对措施。结果发现：（1）《劳动合同法》的实施确实加剧了企业的人工成本粘性并具体表现为与人工成本粘性有关的薪酬粘性；（2）《劳动合同法》的实施对民营企业人工成本粘性的影响程度更大，这不仅表现在《劳动合同法》加剧了包括民营企业在内的全部企业的薪酬粘性，更表现在《劳动合同法》还加剧了民营企业的用工粘性；（3）无论是从总量变化还是从人平变化的视角，《劳动合同法》加剧的人工成本粘性均提高了企业用机器设备替代人工的可能性；同时与《劳动合同法》对民营企业人工成本粘性影响程度更大的结论相一致的是，《劳动合同法》实施后，民营企业用机器设备替代人工的可能性更大。 |
| Abstract | This paper examines how the implementation of labor contract law affected the cost stickiness of labor for China’s A-share listed firms in manufacturing industry from year 2004 to 2011, and how those firms responded by replacing labor with machinery equipment. Our results show that the labor contract law has aggravated the cost stickiness of labor for all firms, in terms of total pay and average pay (price). As for those private enterprises, the aggravation effect of labor contract law is much greater, especially in terms of total pay and number of employees (quantity). Finally, all firms, especially those private enterprises, are more likely to replace labor with machinery equipment after the implementation of this new labor contract law; results hold the same after we adjust machinery equipment by number of employees. |
