摘要

保护劳工权益是塑造贸易竞争新优势、实现我国出口贸易高质量发展的重要途径。本文以 SA8000 认证作为劳工权益保护的标准,通过人工方式收集了经国家认证认可监督管理委员会认证的企业信息。接下来,我们研究了 SA8000 认证对企业出口的影响。结果表明,SA8000 认证在显著扩大出口规模的同时提高了出口质量。机理分析表明,改善效应通过三种途径实现:降低运营成本、提高社会声誉和提高劳动效率。此外,SA8000 认证对资源密集型企业、非国有企业和大型企业的积极影响更为明显。我们的研究为保障劳工权益、重构出口竞争新优势提供了重要参考。

Labour rights protection and export expansion: Evidence from SA8000 certification
Protecting labour rights is an important approach to shaping the new advantages of trade competition and achieving high-quality development of China’s export trade. This paper considers SA8000 certification as the criterion for labour rights protection and manually collects information from firms certified by the National Certification and Accreditation Administration of China. Next, we investigate the effects of SA8000 certification on firm exports. The results show that SA8000 certification significantly expands the export scale while improving export quality. The mechanism analysis shows that the improvement effects are achieved in three ways: reducing operating costs, improving social reputation and increasing labour efficiency. Moreover, the positive effects of SA8000 certification are more profound for resource-intensive firms, non-state-owned firms and large firms. Our study provides an important reference for safeguarding labour rights and reconstructing new competitive advantages in exports.
