This paper examines the performance according to the combination pattern of HRM and business strategy. The business strategy was divided into Miles & Snow's prospector, defender, and analyzer. Data were collected from the Korea Labor Institute's workplace panel survey from 2005 to 2015, and the analysis used 465 companies that are common respondents of the six wave surveys. To test the research model, structural equation modeling was employed. The results of the analysis showed that the combination of high commitment HRM and prospector had a positively significant effect on the performance. Contrariwise, the combination of high commitment HRM and defender, the combination of high commitment HRM and analyzer were not significant effect on performance.

This study examines the factors affecting Korean firms' adoption of maternity protection practices. From a neo-institutional perspective, we argue that firms adopt institutionally legitimized practices mainly for their legitimacy concern rather than technical efficiency. Analysis of data from Establishment panel survey reveals that firms which belong to public sector, has received foreign investment, bench-mark leading firms, or have HR department are more actively adopting maternity protection practices and are showing lower level of decoupling between model and reality. These results imply that legitimacy concern matters among Korean firms in terms of adopting maternity protection practices. We propose that it is important for government agencies to take institutional factors into account when they try to promote maternity protection policy among firms in dealing with the problems of low fertility and gender equity.

In respect complication of group and period, the sales of retail trade is composed of various factors. This paper studies focus on estimating the determinants of the sales of retail trade. The volume of analysis consist of 7 groups. Analyzing period be formed over a 36 point(2005. 1$\sim$2007. 12). In this paper dependent variable setting up sales of retail trade, explanatory(independent) variables composed of composite stock price index, the number of the consumer's online buying behavior company, the coincident composite index, the index of trading price of APT, employment rate, an average of the rate of operation(the manufacturing industry), the consumer price index. The result of estimating the determinants of sales of retail trade provides empirical evidences of significance positive relationships between the coincident composite index, the index of trading price of APT, employment rate, an average of the rate of operation(the manufacturing industry). However this study provides empirical evidences of significance negative relationships between the consumer price index. The explanatory variables, that is, composite stock price and the number of the consumer's online buying behavior company, are non-significance variables. Implication of these findings are discussed for content research and practices.

This study is to examine the effects of high commitment HRM on service performance in the service industry, and to examine the mediating effect of the organizational internal innovation direction. Specifically, the direction of internal innovation consists of high-value-added HR and service and cost-reduction downsizing. We assumed that the high-value-added direction of HR and service will have a positive mediating effect. And assumed that cost-reduction downsizing direction has negative mediating effect. The data were collected from 2013 workplace panel survey(WPS) of the Korea Labor Institute(KLI). Among the 1,775 companies, 896 companies classified as wholesale and retail, transportation, professional scientific services, education services, health social services, financial services, and other services (such as information society support services) were extracted and used. In summary, high-commitment HRM has a positively significant effect on the direction of high value-added innovation of HR and services, and has a negatively significant effect on the cost-reduction downsizing direction. In addition, the direction of high value-added innovation of HR and service was positive effect on service performance, and cost-reduction downsizing innovation direction has a negative effect on service performance. And the direct effect of high commitment HRM on service performance has not been confirmed. However, we confirmed the positive mediating effect of high value-added innovation direction of HR and services, and confirmed that the negative mediating effect of cost-reduction downsizing. Therefore, it is confirmed that the two variables have a full mediating effect on the relationship between high commitment HRM and service performance.

We found following evidences from our empirical analysis with the Workplace Panel Survey data of the Korea Labor Institute with reference to 'discord hypothesis' which insists that employee participatory high performance work practices would strengthen not only an enterprise focus in labor-management relations but also the enterprise unionism in the labor union system or collective bargaining structures, so they would probably come into conflict with the superenterprise-oriented industrial solidarity spirit in labor unionism. First, even though there are significant positive management performance effects of high performance work practices, especially in case of mining and manufacturing industries, the positive performance effects of employee participatory work practices such as job rotation ratio of workers and 6-sigma activities were much strengthened relatively in case of non-unionized establishments. Second, the superenterprise-oriented collective bargaining system is also found to give very strong and statistically significant negative performance effects to the introduction and implementation of work teams and performance-related payment systems such as profit sharing, group incentive pay system and so on. Although there are some careful reservations in interpreting the results of our analysis because of data insufficiency, they may have important implications that the industrial labor unionism or the superenterprise-oriented collective bargaining practices exercise the bargaining power to make individual firms be negative or feel it nearly impossible to introduce the employee participatory work practices which can be very favorable to improving those management performance.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the types of latent profiles depending on the job satisfaction of youth entrepreneurs in South Korea and examine the influence of related variables. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was conducted using data from the 12th year of the Youth Panel Study. Results of the study revealed that there were five latent profiles based on job satisfaction among young entrepreneurs: lowest job satisfaction, mid-low job satisfaction, middle job satisfaction, mid-high job satisfaction, and highest job satisfaction. By applying multinomial logistic analysis, the influencing factors for each latent profiles have been derived. Gender, marital status, subjective health, self-esteem, entrepreneurial motivation, difficulty in start-up, person-job fit, intrinsic or extrinsic job values, business scale, income, work hour, education or training, and labor insurance were significant predictors of youth entrepreneurs' job satisfaction. Based on these results, the article discusses practical implications that can enhance the job satisfaction of young entrepreneurs.

This paper analyzed the influence of employment, human resource development, and labor practices on the corporate performance. Data were collected from the Korea Labor Institute's workplace panel survey(WPS) from 2017, and the analysis used 2,868 companies. This study employed operating profit as a corporate performance. Employment included open recruitment of new employees, evaluation of NCS job competency, and implementation of core human resources acquisition program. Human resource development consisted of incumbent training, job competency improvement evaluation, management program for low performer, emoloyee's career plan, and HRD using job analysis. Labor practices included guarantees for parental leave, guarantees for maternity leave, and support for childcare facilities. The analysis method used binominal logistic regression analysis for two groups of operating profit surplus and deficit companies. As a result of the analysis, it was possible to confirm the influence of employment, human resource development, and labor practices on performance. And the implications of employment, human resource development, and labor practices to improve corporate performance were discussed.

Recent discussions about a minimum wage increase (MWI) and its influence on the economy have mainly focused on the quantitative aspects, such as labor costs and employment. However, concerning the qualitative aspects, an MWI could have positive effects by enhancing firm productivity and crowding out marginal firms from the market. These positive effects of an MWI can offset, to some extent, its potential negative effects - increasing labor costs and decreasing employment, among others. In this regard we empirically examine the impact of an MWI on firm productivity (total factor productivity). Using firm level panel data from the manufacturing industry in Korea, we calculate the influence rates of a minimum wage by sector and by firm size (number of workers), and analyze its effects on firm productivity. In particular, the production functions of the firms are estimated by taking into account endogeneity among the input factors, in order to resolve the drawbacks of existing studies - underestimating the capital factor coefficient and overestimating the labor factor coefficient. This study finds that the influences of an MWI on wages, employment, and productivity are substantially different across sectors and firm sizes. While an MWI has shown to have positive influences on productivity growth in the manufacturing industry as a whole, each sector demonstrates a different direction of effect, and the degree of productivity change also varies by sector. The impacts of an MWI on firm productivity are generally estimated to be more negative for smaller firms, but in some sectors the effects are found to be positive. In addition, the wage increases resulting from an MWI seem to cause a productivity enhancement across all sectors in the manufacturing industry. The policy implications of this study are as follows. Considering the empirical findings that an MWI causes an increase in productivity in many sectors of the manufacturing industry, it would be desirable to take into consideration not only the negative side effects but also the positive effects of an MWI when designing any future minimum wage policy. Moreover, in spite of there being a uniform minimum wage, this study finds that the diverse influence rates of a minimum wage across firms have different impacts on wages, employment, and productivity across sectors or firm size. This finding could be conducive to discussions about differentiation among minimum wage schemes by sector or firm size.

3차원 비디오는 차세대 정보 통신 서비스 분야의 하나로, 사용자에게 시각적으로 고차원적인 서비스를 제공하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이 가운데 다시점 비디오는 같은 시간, 여러 시점에서 영상 정보를 획득하여 사용자에게 원하는 시점의 영상 정보를 제공하는 3차원 비디오이며, 현재 방송 관련 연구 기관에서 차세대 실감방송 멀티미디어 서비스 개발을 목적으로 하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 최근 MPEG 표준화 그룹에서는 다시점 비디오 부호화 (multi-view video coding, MVC) 방법에 관한 표준화 작업이 진행 중이며, 최신 비디오 압축 표준인 H.264를 이용한 여러 가지 방법들이 제안되었다. 현재 MVC 표준화 작업의 평가 기준이 되는 방법은 각 시점을 H.264로 부호화하는 방법인데, 이는 다시점 비디오 영상의 중요한 특성인 인접시점들 사이의 공간적 상관도를 전혀 고려하지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 시점 보간법을 이용하여 얻어진 중간 영상과 원영상과의 차분 영상을 부호화하는 알고리즘을 제안하고자 한다. 여기서 시점 보간법이란 좌우 두 시점 영상으로부터 변이값을 얻은 다음, 이를 이용하여 중간 시점 영상을 합성하는 방법을 말한다. 예를 들면,다시점 비디오의 홀수 번째 시점의 영상은 기존의 방법을 따르고, 짝수 번째 시점의 영상은 이미 부호화된 홀수 번째 시점의 영상을 이용하여 보간적으로 예측하여 원래 영상과 차분 영상을 구하여 부호화한다. 차분 영상은 영상의 복잡도가 많이 감소되어 원영상에 비해 보다 나은 부호화 효율을 보인다. 그러나 합성 영상이 각 장면마다 독립적으로 생성되므로 원영상에 비해 차분 영상의 시간적인 상관도가 줄어들어 I장면의 경우 부호화 효율이 크게 향상되었으나, 시간적인 상관도를 이용하는 P장면과 B장면에서는 오히려 좋지 않은 결과를 보였다. 통계는 전 국민에 대한 패널자료이기 때문에 통계적 활용의 범위가 방대하다. 특히 개인, 가구, 사업체 등 사회 활동의 주체들이 어떻게 변화하는지를 추적할 수 있는 자료를 생산함으로써 다양한 인과적 통계분석을 할 수 있다. 행정자료를 활용한 인구센서스의 이러한 특징은 국가의 교육정책, 노동정책, 복지정책 등 다양한 정책을 정확한 자료를 근거로 수립할 수 있는 기반을 제공한다(Gaasemyr, 1999). 이와 더불어 행정자료 기반의 인구센서스는 비용이 적게 드는 장점이 있다. 예를 들어 덴마크나 핀란드에서는 조사로 자료를 생산하던 때의 1/20 정도 비용으로 행정자료로 인구센서스의 모든 자료를 생산하고 있다. 특히, 최근 모든 행정자료들이 정보통신기술에 의해 데이터베이스 형태로 바뀌고, 인터넷을 근간으로 한 컴퓨터네트워크가 발달함에 따라 각 부처별로 행정을 위해 축적한 자료를 정보통신기술로 연계${cdot}$통합하면 막대한 조사비용을 들이지 않더라도 인구센서스자료를 적은 비용으로 생산할 수 있는 근간이 마련되었다. 이렇듯 행정자료 기반의 인구센서스가 많은 장점을 가졌지만, 그렇다고 모든 국가가 당장 행정자료로 인구센서스를 대체할 수 있는 것은 아니다. 행정자료로 인구센서스통계를 생산하기 위해서는 각 행정부서별로 사용하는 행정자료들을 연계${cdot}$통합할 수 있도록 국가사회전반에 걸쳐 행정 체제가 갖추어져야 하기 때문이다. 특히 모든 국민 개개인에 관한 기본정보, 개인들이 거주하며 생활하는 단위인 개별 주거단위에 관한 정보가 행정부에 등록되어 있고, 잘 정비되어 있어야 하며, 정보의 형태 또한 서로 연계가 가능하도록 표준화되어있어야 한다. 이와 더불어, 현재 인구센서스에서 표본조사를 통해 부가적으로 생산하는 경제활동통계를 생산하기 위해서는 개인이
