| Abstract | This report does not look at the employment consequences of globalisation, but it examines one particular aspect of globalisation, which is offshoring. In Chapter 1, offshoring is defined as the total or partial transfer of an industrial activity (manufacturing or services) abroad, either to an existing or new affiliate, or through subcontracting to non-affiliated companies. The portion of the activity sent offshore that had been intended for the domestic market is then imported. |
