The beginning of the new millennium has been characterized by massive layoffs of IT workers - primarily triggered by economic downturns, declining corporate profitability and increased off-shoring of IT work. In this study, we explore the economic impacts of IT worker layoffs. We propose a conceptual model for linking layoff rationale and layoff size to post-layoff financial performance and we examine the financial performance of firms following IT personnel layoffs. We discuss our data collection strategies and describe our plans for future research. |
