Abstract
The economic literature has focused attention on the offshoring of services and its effect on national employment, coupled with substantial criticism regarding the negative impact that this strategy results in terms of national job losses. This paper discusses the relevance of offshoring of services in Spanish economy and, in particular, in the fields of services and studied its effect on the level of employment in this sector. The empirical analysis is conducted by estimating a function of demand for labor with constant elasticity of substitution (CES), including the effect of offshoring. This study is conducted for the pre-crisis period 2000-2007, source from the Input-Output Tables of INE's National Accounts.
