The purpose of this study is to investigate industry-wise employment growth factors in rural areas. Regional economic vitalization is sensitive to internal and external interaction changes among various industrial and occupational sectors. Thus, rural regional economic vitalization requires a comprehensive approach in analyzing industry-dependent employment structures and growth factors in rural areas. However, research conducted thus far has mostly focused on agriculture and farmers. Considering the evidence that rural communities continue to be stagnant and 80% of the rural population is engaged in nonagricultural activities, it becomes necessary to review industry-specific employment change factors in rural areas. This study targeted 5 counties in Chungnam. The results revealed that agriculture, forestry, and fisheries occupied the foremost positions with regard to population employed and regional GRDP share. The influence of national growth on employment and business variation effects was as high as 98.1% and 78.6%, respectively, thus demonstrating the high likelihood of rural economy to be influenced by external factors. Growth in the public sector appeared to support employment structure. Moreover, wholesale and retail businesses, constituting 14.4% of employment in rural areas, showed a strong trend toward degeneration, to the extent that difficulties have been forecasted for the supply of goods and services essential for basic livelihood of the rural residents. The implications based on the above observations need to be considered for policy-making to ensure that industrial structure is modified on the basis of internal demand of the region, and support for small businesses is integrated in rural area development projects.

This article addresses potential barriers to sustained employment for rural low-income mothers. Drawing from a two panel longitudinal sample of 240 families from the Rural Families Speak project, it examines the extent to which human capital and family factors were related to these mothers' ability to be employed. Comparisons are made between mothers, who over a three-year period, were continuously unemployed, intermittently employed, or stably employed. Many of these rural low-income mothers faced multiple individual and family barriers that impacted their labor force participation. Notably food insecurity, mental health, caring for a young child, housing, and a family history of welfare were associated with less stable employment. The implications for public policy and service delivery are discussed.

현재 농촌은 농업의 경제적 비중이 줄어드는 대신 타 산업의 비중이 커지는 구조적 변화를 겪고 있다. 본 연구는 농업에 기반한 일자리가 지속적으로 감소하고 있는 국내 농촌의 새로운 일자리 창출 정책방향을 제시하는 데 있다. 이를 위해서 우선 농촌 고용구조 변화의 가장 큰 특징인 농가의 불완전고용 현황을 분석하고, 이를 토대로 불완전고용 해소를 위한 정책 방향을 제시하였다. 두 번째로는 농촌지역의 농업 및 비농업부문 고용현황을 분석하였다. 이를 통해 농촌지역의 일자리 구조변화에 대응한 새로운 농촌지역 일자리 창출 방안을 제시하였다. 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 현재 농가는 농업소득과 농업외 소득 확보 정도에 따라 다양하게 분화되고 있다. 따라서 농업경영체의 발전 경로를 고려한 농가별 맞춤형 정책 추진이 필요하다. 둘째, 불완전 고용상태에 놓여 있는 저소득 농가에 대한 정책지원이 강화되어야 한다. 농가소득 변화를 살펴보면 농가의 불완전 고용이 지속적으로 확대되고 있다. 따라서 농가다각화 및 농외 일자리 창출 정책을 통해 불완전고용 농가의 소득을 향상시킬 필요가 있다. 셋째, 농촌창업을 농업외 일자리 창출의 핵심정책으로 설정하고 체계적으로 지원할 필요가 있다. 농촌창업 기업가들은 지역 혁신과 새로운 일자리 창출에 가장 큰 잠재력을 가지고 있다. 넷째, 최근 농촌지역에서 가장 빨리 증가하는 일자리는 보건·복지분야이다. 보건·복지분야의 일자리를 지역공동체와 연계하여 안정적으로 확대할 필요가 있다. 이를 위해서는 공동체 기반 농촌형 사회적기업, 커뮤니티 비즈니스, 협동조합을 적극 육성해야 한다.

Stability of labor market in rural areas was analyzed in this paper with categories of industrial group, employment scale, surviving period, and founder group. The stability of each classified labor market was compared with each other to figure out the stable business class and the unstable class in rural areas. The results of rural areas were compared with those of urban areas. The stability was analyzed with average and coefficient of variation (C.V.) of annual total employees' change rates. It was revealed that labor market of 'primary industry', including agriculture, is unstable. Especially, labor market of 'mid-size' and 'primary industry' businesses founded as 'incorporated company' in rural areas is vulnerable. While labor market of 'large-size' is proved to be unstable, it is confirmed that 'small-size' or 'mid-size', and 'over-ten-year survived' businesses have positive contribution to the stable labor market in rural and urban areas. The results show that the stability of labor market is different in each category of business and in each region of rural or urban area. It is expected that the results can be utilized for the regional development policies, of labor and industry part.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of regional ageing rate to industrial structures of rural areas in Korea. This paper shows that there are cause-effect relations between the industrial specialization and ageing rate in 'Agriculture', 'Finance & Insurance', and 'Real Estate & Leasing' sectors. The ageing levels are classified into ageing society, aged society, and super-aged society according to UN standard that cause different impacts on industrial specialization of regions. This paper finds that the industrial specialization is determined by the ageing levels. If there is an increase in ageing rate by 1% in ageing society, the industrial specialization of the three industries could be strengthened by 0.14%. But, ageing rates have negative impacts on the industrial specialization in aged society and super-aged society by 0.76% and by 1.20%, respectively, as increasing ageing rate by 1%. As the ageing rate progresses, 'Agriculture', 'Finance & Insurance' and 'Real Estate & Leasing'sectors have positive impacts on the industrial specialization in the ageing society. But 'Finance & Insurance' and 'Real Estate & Leasing' sectors have changed into negative impacts on the industrial specialization in the aged society. In the aged society, the employment of elderly persons of 'Agriculture' and 'Finance & Insurance' sectors increase by 1% makes positive impact on the industrial specialization by 1.54%, by 0.45%, respectively. The result of this paper can be applied to a significant guideline at establishing regional employment planning such as elderly customized employment, vocational training for rural areas, where above 14% of ageing rate.
