With reduced costs of hiring short-stay non-European Union workers, small firms hire and fire more non-European Union workers in a given year. Many of these workers return to their home countries, establishing direct connections that boost offshoring to firms in the Netherlands. By contrast, large firms absorb some of the workers leaving the small firms. These workers also establish connections between their host and origin countries, boosting offshoring. 650 0 International business enterprises. 700 1 Wang, Zhiling, |eauthor. 830 0 Policy research working papers ; |v10371. 906 BOOK
