Özet

Over the period of the last 30 years, as external debt has relatively lost ground and foreign investment has become initial in all foreign financing resources, the relationship between foreign direct investment and employment has gain importance for developing countries such as Turkey. In this paper the relationship between foreign direct investment and employment has been analysed. To compute the labour force function demand for 1970-2009 period, the gross national expenditure, gross domestic product and foreign direct investment variables were used for explanatory variables. In accordance with the results of ARDL co-integration tests and Error Correction Model, as well as the literature on the relationship between foreign direct investment and employment in Turkey, there is no long term significant relationship found between foreign direct investment and employment in Turkey, too. Thus, our findings show that foreign direct investment did not have any contribution to reduce employment in Turkey.
