  • As the Korean economy grew, employment expanded steadily, with the number of economically active people increasing and the employment-to-population rate also increasing. However, the working age population started to decline in 2017, and the employment of women and young people has been sluggish. The proportion of non-salaried workers in Korea is much higher than in other OECD countries, and is also excessive, considering Korea's income levels. In addition, the proportion of non-regular workers and the proportion of workers employed at small companies are particularly high among salaried workers. In light of these characteristics of Korean employment, the urgent problems facing the employment structure can be summarized by the deepening dual structure of the labor market, the increase in youth unemployment, sluggish female employment figures, and an excessive share of self-employment. Overall, it is seen that labor market duality is the main structural factor of the employment problems in Korea. Therefore, in order to fundamentally address this employment problem, it is necessary to concentrate policy efforts on alleviating labor market duality.

Evaluation of Technical Production Efficiency and Business Structure of Domestic Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Operators: Panel Stochastic Frontier Model Analysis for 16 Collective Energy Operators (국내 열병합발전사업의 기술적 생산효율성 추정 및 사업구조 평가: 16개 집단에너지사업자에 대한 패널 확률프론티어모형(SFA) 분석)

  • Collective energy is an intermediate stage in energy conversion and has a great influence on the power structure as a distributed power source. However, the problem of the collective energy business has recently emerged due to the worsening profitability of some collective energy operators. This study measured the technical efficiency of major operators through the estimation of the production efficiency of Korean collective energy operators, and based on this, we looked at ways to improve the profit structure of operators. After collecting detailed data from 16 collective energy operators between 2016 and 2019, the production efficiency of operators was estimated using the panel stochastic frontier model. As a result of the estimation, combined steam power operators showed the highest production efficiency and reverse CHP operators showed the lowest efficiency. Furthermore, as a result of examining the factors influencing profitability, it was confirmed that production efficiency has a positive effect on overall profitability. However, businesses with a high proportion of heat production, such as small district electricity operators, profitability was lower. This phenomenon is due to the structural limitations of the current heat sales market. Hence, the adjustment of the heat sales unit price is necessary to improve profitability of collective energy operators.

  • From the 1990s, Korean Life insurance industry has been experienced an profound impact from various exterior factors. In this study, productivity change in Korean Life insurance industry was measured by the Malmquist productivity change index. Analysis was made based on the balanced panel data from 1990 to 2003 collected from 8 lift insurance firms and 1993 to 1997 from 20 firms. The results show that survived firms' productivity change was higher than other firms.

  • 국내 쇠고기 수입의 초점은 생산자들보다는 소비자들에게 치우쳐 있다. 생산자들이 생산한 한우고기를 원활하게 소비시킬 수 있는 유통채널 확대, 적정 수익을 뒷받침 할 수 있는 다양한 제도적 장치 마련이 너무도 필요한 시점이다. 언제까지나 소값 폭락의 위험을 감수하면서 한우고기를 생산하는 농가들이 있을 리 없다는 평범한 진리이다.
