In this paper, we investigate the relationship between exporting and productivity in the case of Vietnam using an … extensive firm level panel dataset for the period 2005-11. We separate out productivity effects of exporting due to self … productivity in foreign-owned firms and private domestic firms separately and find the former benefit more from exporting …

We develop a procedure to estimate production functions, elasticities of demand, and productivity when firms …

In labor markets with worker and firm heterogeneity, the matching between firms and workers may be assortative, meaning …-employee data from Portugal. Using dynamic panel data methods, we quantify a firm-specific productivity term for each firm, and we … relate this to the skill distribution of workers in the firm. We find that there is positive assortative matching, in …

The process of matching between firms and workers is an important mechanism in determining the distribution of wages …. In a labor market characterised by large dispersion of workers' productivity and worker-firm complementarity, high … association of firm-worker matches known as positive assortative matching (PAM).

Does the matching between workers and jobs help explain productivity differentials across firms? To address this …' careers. At firm level, it features a robust positive correlation with firm productivity, and with managerial turnover leading …

Using a matching approach, we compare the productivity trajectories of future exporters and matched and unmatched non …-exporters. Future exporters have higher productivity than do unmatched non-exporters before entry into the export market, which … indicates self-selection into exports. More interestingly, we also find a productivity increase among future exporters relative …
