从“工荒”看企业的根植性

企业根植性理论提供了一个联系企业内部和外部的视角。劳动密集型企业对“无限供给”的劳动力市场的依赖表现为企业内部制度的某种缺陷,即中国劳动密集型企业不像科斯等所言,要与雇员签定较为长期稳定的劳动合同。一旦外部环境发生了变化,即劳动力市场出现了不确定性,内部制度的缺陷就会暴露出来,于是出现了“工荒”。企业外部环境对企业内部制度产生重要影响,这是企业根植性的又一具体表现。构建劳动力市场三方机制是经济社会发展的必然要求。

Reflecting Embedded Character of Enterprises Through the "Shortage of Labor Force"

The theory of embedded character of enterprises provides a viewpoint that can make us think about the relationship between the external environment and internal mechanisms of enterprise.From this point,we can fine the dependence of labor-intensive enterprises upon the labor market of unlimited supply.According to Coase's theory,enterprises have to sign labor contracts with employees in order to reduce the transaction costs.But Chinese labor-intensive enterprises haven't,on condition that there is no any uncertainty in the market of unlimited supply of labor force.Once the condition changed,the limitation of the inner mechanism will emerge.This is the cause of the "shortage of labor force".The construction of the tripartite mechanism of labor market is a necessary requirement for economic and social development.
