This paper studies the impact of outsourcing on individual wages in three European countries with markedly different labor market institutions: Germany, the UK and Denmark. It uses individual level data sets for the three countries and constructs comparable measures of outsourcing at the industry level. The authors show that there are differences in the effect of outsourcing across countries. They discuss possible reasons for these differences based on labor market institutions.
