abstract: 'Purpose
|
||||
|
||||
This paper aims to study the impact of micro-level socio-economic,
|
||||
|
||||
demographic and geographical factors on the likelihood of
|
||||
|
||||
self-employment entry of young adults in Palestine and filling a gap in
|
||||
|
||||
the analysis of determinants of self-employment for young adults in
|
||||
|
||||
Palestine.
|
||||
|
||||
Design/methodology/approach
|
||||
|
||||
The research design is based on a multinomial logistic (MNL) model and
|
||||
|
||||
on the testing of seven hypotheses deriving from the review of the
|
||||
|
||||
theoretical and empirical literature, using a micro-level longitudinal
|
||||
|
||||
data set from the Palestinian Labour Force Surveys (PLFS) between 2009
|
||||
|
||||
and 2016. In the analysis, the dependent variable (employment status) is
|
||||
|
||||
a discrete variable that takes four unordered and independent outcomes:
|
||||
|
||||
wage employee, self-employed, employer and unpaid family member.
|
||||
|
||||
Findings
|
||||
|
||||
This study has strong evidence that the likelihood of self-employment
|
||||
|
||||
increases with age. However, results are inconsistent with the
|
||||
|
||||
well-known curvilinear relationship between age and self-employment.
|
||||
|
||||
Regarding the role of gender, results show that young men are more
|
||||
|
||||
likely to become self-employed than young women. Results indicate that
|
||||
|
||||
there is a significant and negative impact of an increasing level of
|
||||
|
||||
education on self-employment entry for both youth and the whole
|
||||
|
||||
population. On the opposite, training after graduation increases the
|
||||
|
||||
likelihood of self-employment entry for youth with high education level.
|
||||
|
||||
Besides, this paper finds that young workers living in urban areas have
|
||||
|
||||
more likelihood to enter self-employment than those in rural areas and
|
||||
|
||||
young workers in Gaza have more likelihood to enter self-employment than
|
||||
|
||||
their counterparts in West Bank.
|
||||
|
||||
Practical implications
|
||||
|
||||
First, in both West Bank and Gaza, young women are less inclined to
|
||||
|
||||
actively engage in self-employment, which confirms structural
|
||||
|
||||
inequalities between men and women. Therefore, this study calls for
|
||||
|
||||
social protection programmes and for national programmes that would
|
||||
|
||||
promote and develop women''s self-employment. Second, because this paper
|
||||
|
||||
finds that youth self-employment is more an opportunity-driven
|
||||
|
||||
phenomenon than a necessity-driven one, this study calls for programmes
|
||||
|
||||
that provide youth with small business grants and training on
|
||||
|
||||
entrepreneurship and business models.
|
||||
|
||||
Originality/value
|
||||
|
||||
Insights are valuable as both government institutions and universities
|
||||
|
||||
and entrepreneurial startups can benefit from knowing which factors
|
||||
|
||||
contribute to the self-employment likelihood of youth in Palestine and
|
||||
|
||||
use the policy recommendations to develop capacity-building programmes
|
||||
|
||||
to provide the youth and women with skills and competencies which enable
|
||||
|
||||
them to turn to self-employment.'
