In this paper, I estimate the impact of service offshoring on the real wages of U.S. workers by controlling for workers' skill levels and the offshoring susceptibility of different tasks. Matching individual-level wage data with input-output tables over the period from 2006 to 2009, I am further...

This work offers new insights into the determinants of service offshoring across countries and across service industries. Combining different data sources over the 2006-2009 period, I find that certain country characteristics affect offshoring costs for all services, while the effects of other...

Trade economists increasingly relate the offshoring of service occupations to occupational task characteristics. This article provides empirical insights into this relationship and supports the importance of the task dimension as a determinant of offshoring patterns. The results further suggest...
