Abstract
In this paper, we examine the influence of investment of corporate capital, which we capture through heterogeneous company information technology utilization, on labor demand and labor income share. We find that increased investment in information technology by enterprises is associated with a general decrease in the proportion of labor income and the demand for labor. We also find that if the market power of enterprises in the industry is greater, the increase in investment of enterprise information technology capital is even less conducive to the willingness of enterprises to hire workers. Our results have implications for guidance towards corporate (information technology) investment decision-making.
