Labor entry/exit affects domestic labor and product markets. This paper analyzes the impacts of decline in domestic skilled labor and foreign unskilled labor entry on employment and sectoral production in Iran. For this purpose, we develop a multi-sector computable general equilibrium model with both skilled and unskilled workers. To calibrate the model, we construct a Micro Consistent Matrix as a modified Social Accounting Matrix (SAM). We consider a counterfactual scenario of 10% increase in unskilled labor and 10% decline in skilled labor. The simulation results show that decline in skilled labor and increase in unskilled labor would increase the wage rate of skilled labor. Except for agriculture, the employment of unskilled labor in other sectors will increase by 1.6% to 14.4%. However, the domestic income is decreased despite of increasing wage rate of the skilled labor. The production of all sectors also declines by 2.9% to 3.9%, in such a way agriculture, mining and industry sectors face with the highest decrease in production.

Electricity is one of the main inputs in the economic activities especially in industrial sectors. According to Subsidies targeting rule, the sale of electricity should raise the prices to the level of the actual production costs within the fifth development program. This paper uses a computable general equilibrium for measuring the impacts of policy interference on electricity consumption in the industrial sectors of Iran in two scenarios. According to the first scenario, raising electricity price by no change in other energy price, we expect to decrease electricity demand in textile, glass and machinery industries more than other industries. On the second scenario, demand for electricity by the textile, glass industries decrease more than other activities.
