  • 신장이 노동시장 성과에 미치는 영향을 분석한 문헌은 신장 프리미엄이 존재함을 보이면서도 능력을 통제하면 신장 프리미엄이 줄어든다고 하였다. 이는 신장 효과 추정 시 능력 변수를 적절히 통제하지 않으면 신장 효과가 과대 추정될 수 있음을 의미한다. 본고는 문헌 최초로 개인고정효과(FE) 모델을 사용하여 신장 효과를 추정한다. 최소자승법(OLS)으로 분석 시 키가 큰 남학생이 리더 포지션을 획득할 확률이 유의적으로 높으나, 개인고정효과를 통제하면 둘의 관계는 유의하지 않다. 여학생은 OLS, FE 모두 신장 프리미엄이 나타나지 않는다.

  • 이 글은 테크놀로지적 혁신이 게임 생산의 장, 생산자들의 경험 및 주체 인식과 맺는 관계에 주목한다. 모바일 테크놀로지의 출현과 함께, 국내 게임 시장의 중심은 온라인 게임에서 모바일 게임으로 이동하였으나, 관련해 게임 노동의 변화에 대한 학술적 논의는 매우 부족한 상황이다. 따라서, 본 고에서는 질적 연구방법론의 하나인 심층인터뷰를 통해 수집된 자료를 기반으로, 생산환경과 생산자 개인의 경험이 변화해온 양상을 기존 게임 노동과 관련한 다양한 논의를 기반으로 해석을 시도하였다.

  • The COVID-19 pandemic is having an adverse impact on Bangladesh's economy by affecting millions of people's life and hampering their income sources. The outbreak of COVID-19 has created more pressure on the labor market. The pandemic reduces employment opportunities as most of the companies have stopped their recruitment process to cut their operational costs, which increases the rate of graduate unemployment in Bangladesh. Hence, this study aims to investigate the impact of COVID-19 on graduate employability in Bangladesh that adversely affects the income of families and eventually the nation's economy. A literature review has been conducted from secondary sources to evaluate the impact, which shows that the rate of graduate unemployment increased from 47% to 58% in 2020 with an expected annual loss estimated at $53 million. Findings also reveal that the prime reasons for graduate employability are low demand and huge supply of graduates in the labor market, lack of professional skills of graduates, ineffective education system, etc. The study suggests that the government of Bangladesh should develop some policies to overcome this problem such as ensuring employment subsidies, implementing skills development programs, improving labor market flexibility, initiating credit programs for generating employment, and developing entrepreneurial ecosystems in Bangladesh.

  • Purpose: Leisure time is an intrinsic part of the work-life balance that enables people to rejuvenate their energy and provides a platform to maintain their health while sustaining their productivity levels. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of changes in leisure consumption culture on the modern economy through various research materials. Research design, data and methodology: To have completeness in published systematic reviews and meta-analyses, the use of the standard Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses checklist is essential and the present research selected this research design. Results: This research figured out that individuals who spend most of their leisure time watching TV have been shown to experience lesser satisfaction in their job designation and less happiness overall and also found that Leukocyte Telomere Length is influenced by the type of leisure an individual engages in. Conclusions: Overall, this research points out that the income effect may provide an inverse relationship between work time and labor in that high income from labor makes an individual less inclined to work to make the same money they made before the increased benefits. It is a narrative that may need further research in finding the principles that govern leisure in the labor force.

  • The COVID-19 pandemic has unprecedented impacts on different sectors around the globe. The effects observed in developing countries are even more severe. Some projects stopped while many have cost and time overrun issues. This paper conducted a case study on the COVID-19's effects on a hotel construction project in Nepal. The study reviewed the literature on COVID-19 and its impact on construction sectors and conducted a semi-structured interview with the project's personnel. The interview response was analysed and the contributing factors that impacted the project and its performance were identified. The paper found financial, operational, contractual, safety, and risk management issues in the hotel project. Overall, the project cost increased by 32% where the material cost increased by 35% and labor cost increased by 28%. This research discusses causes, measures, and provides a broad perspective of the problems, significant challenges, and opportunities associated with the effects of COVID-19 on the construction industry. The Owner as well as the Contractors incurred added costs because of COVID-19. The paper identified contributing factors and presented the challenges which could be used as opportunities to minimize unforeseen impacts of the pandemics in near future. The lesson learned from this case study was that the labor cost and materials cost could have been minimized if the Owner and the Contractor had established alternative resources such as using locally available labor, materials, and alternative suppliers.

  • Purpose: The objective of this study is to evaluate the fringe benefits provided by the entrepreneurs in BSCIC (Bangladesh Small and Cottage Industries Corporation) industrial estates in light of the relevant labor laws of Bangladesh. Research question: Fringe benefits are one of the major factors in compensation that play a vital role in employee satisfaction. However, the issue has yet to be taken into consideration in the industrial units. So, the question arises: what is the present condition of employee fringe benefits in industrial estates? Research design, data, and methods: To conduct this mixed-methods research, a total of 222 respondents were selected randomly from employees and entrepreneurs. Two sets of self-administered questionnaires and KIIs were used to collect primary data, while SPSS was used to analyze the data. Major findings and conclusions: The study shows that the conditions of leave and holidays do not comply with labor laws. Further, aspects of maternity leaves, disability/death benefits, retirement benefits, and other financial and non-financial benefits are found not to be at a satisfactory level and do not comply with the existing labor laws. However, the benefits relating to environmental issues are found to be satisfactory. It is expected that the study findings will contribute to the existing literature related to fringe benefits and will help stakeholders and policymakers in formulating and monitoring compensation packages.

  • This study based on TAM and D&M model to examine the Kuwaiti employee performance using the electronic document and records management system (EDRMS) in the Ministry of social affairs and labor. Additionally, this study has proposed the moderating effect of work cooperation on employee performance Data of 345 employees were collected from Ministry of social affairs and labor in Kuwait. Smart PLS 3.0 was used to analyze the data. Results indicated that perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness have a positive influence on employee performance. However, findings do not support the relationship between system usage and user satisfaction. Additionally, the results show that there is a significant positive moderating effect of work cooperation. This research provides strong evidence for defining the key factors affecting system usage but also in view of its limits. It should be evaluated. Not all the factors affecting the intentions of end-users to use EDRMS have been fully covered. There are major variables, for example, facilitating state and perceived compatibility are important factors that can be covered in future research. This research is an addition to the current literature and the first attempt in this area to the best of authors' knowledge.

  • The concept of soft power presents both theoretical and practical difficulties for researchers and policy makers. This essay examines the practical use of soft power and argues that soft power resources in education are important for attracting individuals to migrate between countries and assimilate to the new language and culture of the new location. Japan's attempts to utilize soft power resources in its educational system have provided mixed results dependent on the target population. Japan has successfully attracted individuals into fields related to higher education much more so than skilled labor programs. This essay discusses the importance of educational soft power resources in Japanese strategy to increase educated working population that is assimilated to Japanese language and culture. After reviewing the literature on soft power in Asia, and Japanese cultural integration policies, the essay examines three cases of Japanese educational soft power - the JET Programme, the caregiver-training program, and internationalization of university programs. In addition, the essay shows that Japan is more successful attracting higher educated individuals seeking higher paying employment rather than skilled labor through these programs.

  • 본 연구는 비정규직의 규모가 점진적으로 감소하고 있는 브라질의 비정규노동현황과 그 요인들을 통해 우리나라에 대한 시사점을 찾고자 하였다. 브라질 비정규직의 감소원인을 종합적으로 파악하기 위해 문헌과 통계청 자료를 확인하고, 구체적인 실태파악을 위해 상파울로 주에 있는 6개 제조업에 대한 사례조사를 실시하였다. 문헌연구결과, 비정규관련 노동법 조항과 제도들은 비정규직의 제한적 활용에 기여하는 것으로 나타났다. 브라질의 노동법은 고용형태가 다르더라도 비정규노동자를 임시적인 목적으로만 고용할 수 있도록 다양한 측면에서 규정하고 있으며 동일노동 동일임금 및 최저임금제도가 정규직과 비정규직의 임금차별을 완화하여, 결과적으로 사용자의 비정규활용 동기를 감소시키는 것으로 해석되었다. 또 노동검찰과 노동법원은 위법적인 비정규활용을 엄격하게 감시하는 역할을 통해 법적 테두리를 넘어서는 비정규고용을 억제하고 있었다. 사례조사결과, 대부분의 기업에서 비정규직은 임시적인 형태로만 고용되어 있었으며 다수의 사례기업에서 비정규직의 정규직화가 이루어지고 있음을 확인하였다. 이러한 비정규고용에 대한 법적 제한과 정규직화는 노조의 정치적 영향력 확대와도 밀접하게 관련되어 있었다. 브라질의 사례는 우리에게도 적지 않은 시사점을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대되었고, 이를 연구의 결론에서 토론하였다.
