Things to Think About
28
The Global Economyand
Outsourcing
29
Outsourcing: LOW-SKILL WORKFORCE
1. U.S. companies began outsourcing in the 1960’s because of the low cost of labor.
80% of the workforce lives in countries where the average wage is less than $1.00 per hour.
2. As transportation and communications improved so did the outsourcing of manufacturing jobs.

30
Outsourcing: HIGH-SKILL WORKFORCE
1. More recently, companies began outsourcing high-school jobs because of low labor costs:
Example: Software Engineer* U.S.A $66,100 / yr
India $10,000 / yr
2. As communication costs lowered and software packages became standardized, the outsourcing of high-skilled jobs increased.
