The Twin Effects of Globalization. Evidence from a Sample of Indian Manufacturing Firms

Employees of globalized firms face a more uncertain stream of earnings and riskier employment prospects.

We provide empirical evidence of this so neglected trade-off for a sample of Indian manufacturing firms.
