    Abstract

    It is commonly alleged that foreign direct investment (FDI) in Pakistan has positive
    consequences for the domestic labor market. The effects of FDI on the domestic labor
    market are a very controversial issue in most countries experiencing high or growing
    unemployment. Over the past two decades, Pakistan received a major chunk of foreign
    direct investment from developed countries. The objective of this study is to undertake an
    empirical study on creation of employment opportunities by FDI during 2005-2010 in
    Pakistan, This paper shows that this widely accepted view does not generally hold.

    .( Implications for FDI policy are spelt out in the light of these empirical results.)YE

    ALMOST EVERY COUNTRY

    • Resource-seeking: FDI aims at securing access to raw materials required for


    production and has positive consequences for the domestic labor market.

    • Efficiency-seeking: FDI primarily aims at reducing the cost of producing goods


    and
    services and has a negative impact on domestic employment.

    • Market-seeking: FDI aims at securing and developing existing foreign markets and
    at gaining access to new markets and has a positive impact on the home economy
