This paper investigates how immigration can affect the labor market outcomes of native workers when their wages are rigid. I use a rich dataset for France and decompose the native workers according to whether they are covered by fixed-term or indefinite-term contracts. Indefinite-term contracts are associated with higher wage protection than fixed-term contracts that allow firms to adjust wages as contracts expire. I use an empirical methodology which captures the direct effects of an immigrant-induced increase in labor supply on the labor market outcomes of natives who have similar skills. I find that the monthly wage of native workers covered by fixed-term contracts decreases in response to immigration, while employment is the margin through which native workers on indefinite-term contracts is affected.

We investigate (1) whether frms deliberately write incomplete contracts, and (2) if so, under which conditions. a better understanding of this phenomenon is important, because research shows that incomplete contracts can yield higher results than fully specifed ones. p]We investigate these questions using the grounded theory methodology developed by Glaser and Strauss, and specifcally the Straussarian version. We conducted thirty-seven semi-structured in-depth interviews with executives from diferent industries who negotiate contracts. We found that, given a confdent view of the world, executives are willing to write incomplete inter-frm contracts under the following circumstances: a) they have a confdent attitude towards their environment, b) they trust their contracting partner, c) the power relationship between the companies is equal, and d) the value of the contract is relatively low, i.e., of minor strategic importance.

The proposition that labour market adjustments to intra-industry trade are less costly than adjustments to inter-industry trade is a widely-held belief amongst trade economists. If it is the case that there are significant sector-specific skills, then this ?smooth adjustment hypothesis? seems intuitive. However, direct evidence relating to this issue remains largely anecdotal.
