Abstract: Although the literature now knows the import competition from China has signicantly reduced manufacturing employment and earnings of aected local areas, the precise mechanism through which it occurs is not known. In this paper, I argue that the suppressed employment-to-employment (EE) transition rate is an important channel for both manufacturing and non-manufacturing workers. Toward the goal, I show that Chinese import competition has decreased EE rates of both manufacturing and non-manufacturing sectors. The on-the-job labor search models with counteroers and the existing ndings that EE rates strongly comove with wage growth strengthen the EE channel of employment and wage eect.
