| Abstract | Regions are exposed to intensive competition to provide the most attractive location conditions for firms and their employees. Therefore, regional employment development depends to a decisive degree on the attractiveness of regional location factors. Based upon the creation of establishment-level panel data from Official Statistics for manufacturing in Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany, from 1980 to 1999 this paper gives an empirical analysis of the impact of regional location conditions on regional manufacturing employment growth. In particular, the paper examines whether the impact of regional location conditions on regional net employment growth is driven by the underlying gross components job creation and/or job destruction.The results indicate that lower regional costs of production and a better regional endowment with skilled labour and R&D promote manufacturing employment growth. Thereby, lower costs of production as measured by a lower wage level stimulate employment growth by decreasing gross job destruction, while a better human capital endowment and a higher regional R&D intensity enhance employment growth by higher rates of gross job creation. Regions characterised by a smaller average firm size in manufacturing experienced higher manufacturing employment growth both by higher rates of job creation and lower rates of job destruction. On the other hand population density stimulates job creation as well as job destruction which lead to a zero effect on the scale of net employment change—indicating a compensation effect “behind the scenes”. Otherwise, the analysis reveals the tendency for regional location factors to influence either only gross job creation or only gross job destruction, but seldom both sides at the same time. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
