Abstract

L?articolo esplora gli effetti della presenza multinazionale nei distretti industriali veneti, con particolare riferimento ai profili professionali degli occupati. ? stata condotta un?analisi controfattuale per confrontare la composizione occupazionale delle imprese distrettuali a controllo italiano (Uni) con quella delle affiliate italiane delle imprese multinazionali estere (Imne) localizzate nei 28 distretti veneti all?anno 2014. Lo studio si avvale di una nuova base dati che comprende: (i) le partecipazioni di affiliate estere in Italia (Reprint-Ice); (ii) i bilanci delle imprese distrettuali, sia Uni che Imne (Aida-Bureau van Dijk); (iii) le informazioni sulla composizione occupazionale delle imprese (Sistema Informativo Lavoro Veneto - Silv). Dall?analisi controfattuale emerge che le imprese affiliate di multinazionali estere tendono ad assumere pi? personale qualificato e pagare salari pi? alti, coerentemente con la necessit? di attirare lavoratori esperti per recuperare lo svantaggio delle asimmetrie informative.
