中国上場企業と子会社の採用ビッグデータ（2014〜2023年、26,439件）を用い、気候リスクに晒された親会社が登記地を移さず、低リスク地域の子会社へ雇用を再配分する「シャドー・リロケーション」を発見。これは採用成長の転換を通じて生じ、利潤追求とリスク回避の両動機と整合する。移行リスクは創造的破壊を伴い伝統的雇用を減らしグリーン雇用を増やすが、物理的リスクには同様の構造調整は見られない。
English
Using recruitment big data matched to Chinese listed firms and subsidiaries (26,439 firm-year observations, 2014-2023), we show that parents facing higher climate risk rarely relocate registered locations but shift employment toward lower-risk subsidiaries—termed 'shadow relocation.' It operates via diverting hiring growth rather than parent retrenchment, consistent with profit-seeking and risk-avoidance. Transition risk drives creative destruction (fewer traditional, more green jobs); physical risk shows no comparable adjustment.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
気候リスクが企業の雇用・立地戦略を通じて地域経済や雇用に与える影響を示す。日本企業のScope3・サプライチェーン再編や、SSBJ開示における物理的・移行リスクの地域間配分を考える上で示唆に富む。
In the global GX context
Adds to global disclosure scholarship by revealing a hidden adaptation channel—employment reallocation across subsidiaries—that TCFD/ISSB physical- and transition-risk reporting rarely captures. Relevant to debates on regional inequality and just transition under CSRD and transition finance frameworks.

📄 Abstract（原文）
ABSTRACT Using recruitment big data matched to Chinese listed firms and their subsidiaries, covering 26,439 firm‐year observations from 2014 to 2023, we find that parent firms exposed to higher climate risk rarely relocate their registered locations. Instead, they reallocate employment toward subsidiaries located in lower‐risk regions. We term this adaptive strategy shadow relocation. Decomposition results show that shadow relocation operates mainly through the diversion of hiring growth toward safer regions rather than retrenchment at the parent firm. This response is consistent with both profit‐seeking and risk‐avoidance motives, as climate risk erodes local profitability and reduces managerial risk tolerance. The effect is stronger where government climate attention is lower, climate policy uncertainty is higher, and subsidiary agency costs are lower. We further distinguish between types of climate risk. Transition risk is associated with creative destruction, reducing traditional employment while increasing green job creation, whereas physical risk generates no comparable structural adjustment. We discuss the implications of this less visible adaptation strategy for regional inequality and sustainable development.
