Abstract
This paper examines the relationship between worker flows and the export status at the establishment level. Using a large panel of German manufacturing establishments between 2000 and 2017, I document that exporters are characterized by lower fluctuation rates. These results are especially pronounced in large exporting establishments. Furthermore, the results are driven in particular by low separation rates, indicating higher employment stability in exporting establishments.
