Purpose - The purpose of this study was to examine the mediating effect of employee competence on the relationship between the utilization of non-regular workers and firm performance. Design/methodology/approach - This study utilized 427 firm level data from HCCP. The Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and the multiple regression analysis were conducted to verify the hypotheses. Findings - We found that the utilization of non-regular workers is not significantly related to firm performance. However, the utilization of non-regular workers had a negative relationship with employee competence, and that employee competence mediated the relationship between the utilization of non-regular workers and firm performance. Research implications or Originality - As environmental uncertainty and competition between firms intensify, more and more firms are utilizing non-regular workers. Research on the relationship between the utilization of non-regular workers and firm performance is continuously conducted, but research on the process of explaining the specific relationship between them is still insufficient. Our study contributes the related research area by identifying the mediating role of employee competence on the utilization of non-regular workers and firm performance relationship.

In this study, with the data of Human Capital Corporate Panel(HCCP) we find that the explaining power of the new hiring rate of experienced regular workers is very strong and statistically significant as a main causal factor to the decreasing trend of investment on education and training for workers in corporates, which means a sign of weakening of the internal labor market. Possibility of wage penalty from switching jobs has been weakened considerably too. The effective alternative policy measures to the weakening or laxity of the internal labor markets and whereby followed reduction in investment on education and training for workers in corporates are construction of social system outside of individual corporates to upbring field-tailored manpower of high quality for young generations and small and medium sized enterprises.

Even though current firms achieve organizational innovation with diverse workforce, previous studies on the relationship between workforce diversity and firm innovation revealed mixed results. To explain these inconsistent findings, this study examines the contradictory aspects of diversity, and divides innovative performance as exploitative and exploratory innovation. In particular, the main focus of this study is age diversity and firm innovation, since most Korean firms suffer from inter-generational conflicts. In addition, this study explores the moderating role of cohesive and innovative culture as the strong norms within the organization. The HCCP data was used to test these hypotheses. As predicted, age diversity negatively influences exploitative innovation, and positively affects exploratory innovation. However, the moderating role of cohesive culture was not statistically significant. Conversely, innovative culture strengthens the positive relationship between them.
