abstract: 'Focusing on the individual heterogeneity, this article examines the
causes of an individual''s employment status choice and the extent of
state dependence in the Korean labour market. We estimate a dynamic
multinomial logit model using the panel data drawn from the first to
fifteenth wave of the Korean Labour and Income Panel Study. The results
suggest the presence of state dependence. Individual characteristics and
growth background have a significant effect on the choice of employment
status. Gender is still an important employment factor; males are more
likely to be employed and this gender effect is highest for regular
employment (RE). One''s educational attainment and age operate in
opposite directions. That is, educational attainment (age) has a
positive (negative) impact on the choice of a regular job and a negative
(positive) impact on the choice of a non-regular job. Contrary to our
expectations, a wealthy family background reduces the probability of
individuals being wage workers, and raises the probability of them being
unemployed. The barriers to RE are greater than for non-regular
employment. These findings are of great importance for designing
policies to effectively address unemployment and labour informality
problems in Korea.'
