报告摘要:

Digital platforms have fundamentally changed traditional business models. In recent years, a new sharing-economy platform, which leverages information technology (IT) to re-distribute unused or underutilized assets to people who are willing to pay for the services, has received tremendous attention. In this paper, we seek to examine the impacts and implications of the sharing platform (specifically Uber) on the labor market. Assembling a data set of measurements about the labor force,the employment/unemployment rate as well as the entry points of Uber into multiple metropolitan areas, we are able to use a difference-in-difference method to investigate whether the above measures before and after Uber entry are significantly different across the urban areas. We find empirical evidence that platform-based sharing economy decreases the unemployment rate and increases the labor force participation. We also find evidence of a shift in the supply of low skill workers from traditional low-skill jobs to the sharing economy sector and consequently an increased wage rate for those workers in the traditional industries. Explanations and insights of our findings are discussed in the paper.
