The purpose of the labor statistics survey is to collect materials on employment, wages and the working time and to analyze the trend of the labor situation. in this research, the stratification variables are industry and the size of establishment. The sample are selected by stratified one stage sampling method in order to produce the reliable estimates of labor statistics. For local labor statistics, we design the sample survey using the city and province as sub-population. So we are able to produce the local area estimates of labor statistics with respect to industry and the size of establishment.

We use a structural vector error correction model of the labor market to investigate the effect of shocks to Korean unemployment. We associate technology, labor demand, labor supply, and wage-setting shocks with equations for productivity, employment, unemployment, and real wages, respectively. Subsequently, labor demand and supply shocks have significant long-run and contemporaneous effects on unemployment, respectively.

Government statistics have been treated the most reliable data sources in Korea. In the last 20 years, the numbers and scopes of the government statistics have been expended rapidly. Although government statistics have been widely used in many researches, research methods used in collecting government statistics have not been discussed often. In 1998, we reviewed the survey questionnaire, data collecting methods and procedures of one government statistics, the Labor Demand Survey. Based on the pilot study, we also proposed several survey methods for the quality improvement of the survey. The Ministry of Labor had adopted some suggestions in 1999 survey. This paper introduces the ways in which we investigated the Labor Demand Survey,, detected the problems and issues in the survey, suggestions for the improvement of the survey, and several survey methods adopted by the Ministry of Labor. However, the effects of the new measures are not included in this paper, and will be studied in the near future when the data become available.

Despite the fact that there are about 435,000 unemployed youth out there in 2003, small and medium manufacturing companies experience a shortage of labor in South Korea. Korean government has released the statistical data on labor shortage as well as unemployment. However, there is an inconsistency in the labor shortage statistics of the small and medium business sector released by two different government bodies: the Labor Demand Survey by the Ministry of Labor (MOL), and the Manpower Survey for the Small and Medium Business by the Small and Medium Business Administration (SMBA). This paper analyzes causes of the differences the conceptualization and measurement of labor shortage and the data collecting methods. This paper also suggests alternative statistical indicators to overcome the confusion.

Many researches have been devoted to the small area estimation related with the area level statistics. Almost all of the small area estimation methods are derived based on minimization of mean squared error(MSE). Recently Hwang and Shin (2008) suggested an alternative small area estimation method by minimizing mean squared percentage error. In this paper we apply this small area estimation method to the labor statistics, especially monthly wages by a branch area of labor department. The Monthly Labor Survey data (2007) is used for analysis and comparison of these methods.

Objectives: This study aims to understand the effects of job stress and emotional labor on perceptive health status of dental hygienist's. And provide basic data by for establishing the plan for the effective management of job stress and emotional labor and the promotion of health. Methods: Self-evaluation questionnaires were surveyed for 441 dental hygienist's who agreed to participate in the survey, using questionnaires used in the preceding study were modified and complemented. We analyzed the data with frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, t-test, chi-square test와 ANOVA, Spearman correlation coefficient by using IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0 (IBM Co., Armonk, NY, USA). The significance level for significance was set at 0.05. Results: health status were job stress, emotional labor significant negative correlation. The factors having significant effects on health problem were physical health status, the job culture of job stress, lack of job autonomy, organizational instability, and workplace culture. In addition, social health status was affected by emotional expressionism, relationship conflict, organizational instability, organizational system, and workplace culture. Conclusion: Recognizing the importance of the management of job stress and emotional labor in the working environment to dental clinic and hospital managers and managerial dental hygienists, a dental hygienist health promotion intervention program is needed to mitigate and cope with job stress and emotional labor.

In panel studies in which the same respondents are interviewed repeatedly over the long term, panel attrition may cause the problems in the reliability of the result and the representativeness of the sample in panel study. In this article, we explore the risk factors of sample attrition in the first 11 waves of the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study (KLIPS) data covering the years 1998-2008, for which the survival analysis techniques such as life-table method and Cox proportional hazard model based on the time to the attrition of each respondent as the survival time of the respondent are applied.

Purpose: To analyze the structure of Korean nurse labor market and examine its effect on hospital nurse staffing. Methods: Secondary data were obtained from Statistics Korea, Education Statistics, and Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service and Patient Survey. Intensity of monopsony in the nurse labor market was measured by Herfindahl Hirshman Index (HHI). Hospital nurse staffing level was divided into high and low. While controlling for confounding factors such as inpatient days and severity mix of patients, effects of characteristics of nurse labor markets on nurse staffing levels were examined using multi-level logistic regressions. Results: For characteristics of nurse labor markets, metropolitan areas had high intensity of monopsony, while the capital area had competitive labor market and the unemployed nurse rate was higher than other areas. Among hospital characteristics, bed occupancy rate was significantly associated with nurse staffing levels. Among characteristics of nurse labor markets, the effect of HHI was indeterminable. Conclusion: The Korean nurse labor market has different structure between the capital and other metropolitan areas. But the effect of the structure of nurse labor market on nurse staffing levels is indeterminable. Characteristics such as occupancy rate and number of beds are significantly associated with nurse staffing levels. Further study in support of the effect of nurse labor market is needed.
