The archives should not document the absence of labor records, but document the traces of workers' lives. In other words, it is the responsibility of the archive to reproduce the acts and sufferings of contingent workers with records, and to reveal the oppressive structure of capitalism based on them. Records representing the lives of contingent workers, such as labor manuals, should be at the core of records that symbolize the present, and archives should be documented. The archives should discard the illusion of neutrality.

The purpose of this study was to find the wage determinants of web-based platform workers. For this purpose, a total of 3,575 web-based platform workers' information from Freelancer.com, a global platform labor market, in September 2018 were used and whether or not newly available indicators such as evaluations by previous employers had a significant effect on the wage increase of platform workers using OLS and QR methods. As an OLS estimation results, the number of reviews, as well as education and experience, affects the wages of platform workers. However, as a result of the QR estimation, experience rather than education, recommendation rather than a review has a more significant effect on the wage of web-based platform workers as the wage level rises.

본 논문은 한국고용정보원의 '대졸자 직업이동경로조사(2007)' 자료를 활용하여 청년 고학력자의 성별 노동시장 차별이 존재하는지를 확인하고자 하였다. 청년 고학력층은 경력단절, 육아와 가사부담에 따른 노동시장 차별을 비교적 덜 받을 것으로 예상된다는 점에서 이들 집단에서의 차별 존재는 최근 노동시장 문제를 파악하는 데 있어 매우 중요한 의미가 있다. 우리는 성별 노동시장 차별을 분석하기 위해서 차별에 관한 실증분석 방법으로 일반적으로 많이 사용되는 오하카 요인분해 모형을 활용하였다. 특히 고용차별을 확인하기 위해서 이항선택 모형에 적용한 요인분해 분석방법을 활용하였다. 전반적인 결론은 청년층 고학력자 여성들도 청년층 고학력자 남성에 비해 고용 및 임금차별을 경험한다는 것이다. 특히 본 연구에서는 성별 임금차별 뿐만 아니라 비정규고용 및 비공식고용과 같은 고용형태상의 차별도 확인할 수 있었다. 연령, 4년제졸 여부, 결혼여부가 성별 고용 및 임금격차를 초래하는 주요 요인으로 분석되었다.

The enhancement of algorithmic management within platform companies and the expanding recognition of the 'employee status' of platform workers in various areas indicate a need for platform companies to broaden their comprehension of platform workers' job attitudes as an internal human resource. This study aims to explore variations in platform workers' job attitudes based on their work values in light of the evolving landscape of algorithmic management. Specifically, the research delves into discerning differences in platform workers' perceptions of job attitudes in relation to their work values. A multivariate analysis of variance(MANOVA) was employed in examining survey data from 177 riders affiliated with a delivery platform that implemented algorithmic management. The findings revealed that platform workers who prioritize work value (job interest), exhibited higher levels of perceived fairness in compensation and autonomy. Moreover, those who placed greater importance on work value (economic compensation), demonstrated elevated levels of work overload, perceived fairness in compensation, job burnout, and intentions to seek alternative employment opportunities.

This paper aims to analyze the Award wage system in Australia for construction workers. Considering low wages and precarious employment situation of construction workers in general, it is of advantage especially for them in Australia. Furthermore, it seems to be instructive for Korean construction workers, who stand in more precarious and unstable situation and furthermore are lack of fair wage and social safety. After strong and longstanding labour struggle in the late 19th century in Australia, it has been established a tripartite institution called as 'tribunal' between trade unions, employers, and the government. Under the highly institutionalized form of industrial relations, it functions as an arbitration and conciliation system between labour and management. The Award wage system stands in the middle point. This Award wage system including various welfare provisions is settled by the tribunal, today renamed as Fair Work Commission. In this wage system should be defined level of minimum wages according to the various skill levels, which are in turn connected with compulsory superannuation and Medicare as well as vocational education and training. Furthermore, it provides especially for the construction workers, who suffer from job instability, so-called 'portable benefits', which relate to long service leave and redundancy pay. Considering general conditions of precarious construction workers in Korea, In that respect, the Australian Award wage system would be very instructive for our social wage and safety system for construction workers.

한국 중년 남녀들의 무급노동을 비교 분석하려는 목적을 가진 본 연구는 가사노동과 가족들 보기를 하는 비율과 그 시간량을 분석하고 있다. 가사노동과 가족돌보기가 여전히 여성들의 몫으로 간주된다고는 하지만 얼마나 많은 여성과 남성들이 이러한 일들을 하고 있으며, 이에 사용되는 시간이 얼마인지에 대한 구체적인 분석을 드물다. 본 연구에서는 1999년도 생활시간조사를 이용하여 한국의 40대와 50대 중년층의 가사노동과 가족돌보기를 행하는 비율과 그 시간량을 기술하는 한편, 이들의 가구, 개인, 거주지역 및 요일특성에 따른 차이를 제시하고 있다. 주요 결과로는 중년층 여자들의 경우 본 연구에서 고려한 특성과 관계없이 대부분이 가사노동을 하고 있는 반면, 남자들은 특성에 따라 가사노동을 하는 비율의 차이가 발견된다는 것이다. 또한 가사노동 시간량에서는 남자들과는 달리 여자들에게서 동거가구원이 적을수록 가사노동의 시간 또한 적음을 알 수 있다. 가족돌보기의 경우에는 가구특성이 중요하게 나타나고 있다. 특히 남자들과는 달리, 여자들 중에서 유배우자들은 무배우자들보다 가족돌보기를 하는 비율이나 시간이 많은 것으로 나타난다. 이는 남편이 아내를 돌보기보다는 아내가 남편을 수발하거나 보살피는 것이 더 보편적임을 다시 확인시켜 준다.

It is expected that labor mobility and inter-industry labor turnover would rise due to the rapid changes in the industrial structure and legal institutions of layoffs after the 1997 economic crisis in Korea. One aspect of economic costs of labor mobility is demise of accumulated skills of workers. Workers' skills could be decomposed into three parts, general skills, firm-specific skills, and industry-specific skills. Using data from the panal data of Korea Labor Institute(KLIPS), I show that the net return to seniority is markedly reduced once industry-experience are controlled for. The returns to industry-specific experience are relatively high. Particularly, the experience in one-digit industry is more important for the white-collar workers, while the experience in three-digit industry is also important for the blue-collar workers. Therefore, it seems that the economic cost of labor mobility would be diverse between the skills and between the working classes.

EU has pursued of the economic growth and the promotion of jobs by a free movement of workers. The free labour mobility brings a sustainable economic development through the creating jobs and the acquisition of a new knowledge and technology, but it also produces the geographical unequality of the movement of workers. And the enlargement of the EU redistributes geographically the flow of labour mobility. The flow of labour movement within EU changes to the structure of mobility that moves from the North to the North instead of the movement from the South to the North as an economic development in the South and an economic transformation to the service and hightech industry in the North. The mobility of unskilled workers has diminished, but the mobility of expert workers has increased. The flow of labour movement within EU has a structure hierarchic that the experts labour move from the North to the North, and the unskilled labour move from the South to the North and from the northern Africa to the South of Europe.

Using data sets from the Korean Labour and Income Panel Study (KLIPS) for the period 2003-2015, this study shows that wages of nonunion workers are positively related to the percentage of unionized workers in the same geographic region. A 10 percentage point increase in a region's union density is associated with a 4.9 percent increase in the region's average wage of nonunion workers. It is also shown that this positive spillover effect is observed for various subgroups of nonunion workers, including women, youth, low-educated workers, small firm employees, and those employed under nonstandard work arrangements. In contrast, the average wage of union workers is found to respond insignificantly to changes in a region's union density.
