摘要

本文在勞動市場充分就業的假設下，架構不具跨產業誘發之外部效果與具外部效果並考慮資本是否具跨部門移動性的一般均衡模型，分析對引進外勞的企業收取就業安定費後對相對產出變動、相對價格變動、所得分配與國民所得的影響。分析結果發現不論是否具有跨產業的外部效果，政府以調高就業安定費做為政策工具時，將可使勞力密集產業的產量減少而自然萎縮，並誘使勞力與資本移往技術密集產業而增加技術密集產業的產量，並且對於國民所得的增進有其正面效果。但值得注意的是，此一費用的歸屬，在短期資本不具跨部門移動性時，雇主將負擔得較多；但在長期資本具跨部門移動性時，此一費用將轉嫁給勞工負擔。

This paper incorporates 'input-induced inter-industry production externality' and capital mobility into the two-sector general equilibrium framework within which we analyze the incidence and welfare affect the collection of Employment Stability Fee (ESF) by the government that charge on the domestic firms which employ foreign labors. It shows the collection of ESF provided negative external effects associated with foreign labors would increase national income, when the government collects ESF from importing foreign labors, whether the externality is existed, the employers would pay more ESF in short term; however, in long term, labors would pay more. Besides, collections of ESF have positive effects to national incomes that are represented by factors of rewards.
