Bu çalışma, Türk firma düzeyindeki verilere dayanarak ihracatın istihdam üzerindeki etkisini 2003-2015 dönemi için araştırmaktadır. Bu amaçla, tedavi modelleri oluşturularak, Eğilim Skoru Eşleştirme (PSM) ve Fark İçerisinde Fark (DID) metodolojileri kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuçları, ihracatın firmaların istihdamını önemli ölçüde teşvik ettiğini göstermektedir. Özellikle, bu etki emek yoğun ve düşük/orta-düşük teknolojili ve daha düşük ücret ödeyen sektörlerdeki Türk imalat firmalarında daha fazladır.

This study investigates the employment effects of exports on employment based on Turkish firm-level data over the period 2003-2015. To this aim, we adopt Propensity Score Matching (PSM) and Difference-in-Differences (DID) techniques to construct treatment models. The results show that exporting encourages firms’ employment significantly. Specifically, this effect is more significant for Turkish manufacturing firms in labour-intensive and low/medium-low technology sectors and those paying lower wages.
