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.'
