Sermaye Malı İthalatının İşgücü Verimliliğine Etkisi: Panel Veri Analizi

Öz

Gelişmekte olan ülkelerde sermaye malları ithalatının işgücü verimliliği üzerinde meydana getirdiği etkinin incelendiği bu çalışmada, 84 gelişmekte olan ülkenin 1998- 2009 yılı dengesiz panel verileri kullanılmıştır. Çalışma, bir ülkedeki çalışan kesimin verimliliğinin arttırılmasında sermaye malı ithalatının pozitif etkisinin olduğu hipotezini test etmektedir. Yapılan analizle sermaye malı ithalatının işgücü verimliliğini olumlu yönde etkilediği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
