Abstract

This study aims to recognize the regional disparity of employment and to analyse the regional current states and characteristics using the evaluation criteria for employment competitiveness. Firstly, it has revealed that the regional disparity of employment is deepening and disparity from the quality side and stability side are more serious. Secondly, the strongest regional employment competitiveness was found to be Chungnam, followed by Seoul, Ulsan, Gyeongbuk, Daejeon and the region of employment risky is Busan. Lastly, it has analysed that the most influencing factors on employment competitiveness are criteria of stability sector. Therefore, we should make efforts to create jobs of good quality and stable, in order to reduce regional disparity and strengthen the competitiveness of employment. And especially region of employment risky must require continuous monitoring.

본 연구는 지역 간 고용격차를 파악하고, 고용경쟁력 평가지표를 통해 지역현황 및 특성을 분석하기 위한 연구이다. 첫째, 지역 간 고용격차는 심화되고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 질적 측면과 안정성 측면에서의 격차가 더욱 심각한 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 지역별 고용경쟁력은 충남, 서울, 울산, 경북, 대전 등의 순으로 나타났으며, 부산은 고용위험 지역으로 분류되었다. 셋째, 고용경쟁력에 가장 많은 영향을 미치는 요인은 안정성 측면의 지표들인 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 지역 간 고용격차를 완화하고 고용경쟁력을 강화하기 위해서는 양질의 안정적인 일자리를 창출하기 위한 노력이 필요하며, 특히 고용위험 지역의 경우에는 지속적인 모니터링이 요구된다.
