  • 저성장, 실업률이 심화됨에 따라 일자리 중심 정책은 현 정부의 최우선 정책과제로 급부상하였다. 이러한 정책기조로부터 정부는 R&D분야에서도 고용영향평가 제도를 통해 도출된 성과를 R&D 사업의 예산배분 보조지표로 활용하는 방안을 검토하고 있다. 허나, R&D분야는 기술개발에 따른 고용창출효과의 발생 시점을 추적하기 힘들며, 기술개발로 인한 일자리에 대한 부(-)의 영향도 존재하기에 기존의 고용영향평가 방법만으로 R&D분야의 고용창출효과를 산출하는 것은 한계점이 존재한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 R&D분야에서 고용영향평가에 적용될 수 있는 일자리 유형들을 분류하고, 일자리 유형별 정의 및 R&D 사업의 일자리 유형별 사례를 분석한다. 분석결과는 정부 R&D 사업들의 고용창출효과 산출과정에 활용 시 도움이 될 가능성이 있으며, 현 R&D분야의 고용영향평가 제도에 대한 절차 및 문제점을 분석하는 차원에서 큰 의의가 있다.

  • One of the most important aspects of any firm is to motivate its employees to go the extra mile. In order to do work properly, people must be motivated. The total effectiveness and efficiency of workers, as well as a company's performance, is directly related to the degree of motivation of those who work there. On the other hand, demotivated personnel do not put much effort and, when they get a better opportunity, leave their places of employment. For Survey, this study used online Google forms to collect data from September 2021 to October 2021. The target demographic for the research was those who worked for Lebanon's private businesses. The poll was conducted in English, the second language of Lebanon. Furthermore, 179 workers (N = 179) were utilized for this research. The research suggests that fun events and support for fun managers enable workers to connect informally and help people know each other better, creating an environment that promotes friendship building. Based on these connected reasons, fun activities and the support of managers for fun are considerably linked to turnover.

  • Family business is the oldest and the most prevalent type of entity in the world. In India, 85% of the enterprises are owned and/or managed by families, contributing to two-third of GDP. Thus the survival of family firms, which also generates 79% of private sector employment, is of paramount importance. Effective succession planning and innovation to gain competitive edge are the two key ways to ensure family firm survival. In this paper, the interplay between family succession and innovation is qualitatively studied using case study approach. Successors and Predecessors are interviewed to gain insights in the areas of succession planning and innovation. It is observed that family succession has a positive relationship with innovation, i.e. the presence of founding family members in the ownership and/or management of the enterprise has a positive influence on innovation tendency of the family firms. The findings contribute to the family business literature on succession planning and innovation, and their inter-relationship.

  • The rapid change in the university environment due to the decrease in the school-age population calls for enhancing the competitiveness of China-related departments. In this paper, the university's competitiveness and dropout rate were studied in combination with various factors such as geographical location of Chinese-related departments set up at national universities, convergence with other departments, competition rate for entrance exams, scholarships, and employment rate that have a comprehensive impact on student satisfaction. In particular, the dropout rate presented research results that could help universities strengthen their competitiveness in China-related departments, such as by differentiating customized academic strategies according to the atmosphere of elimination through multiple regression analysis and quantile analysis. We hope this thesis will be the basis for policymaking and judgment in China-related departments.

  • The construction industry is an industry in which skilled construction workers should be secured and trained because of the quality and productivity of buildings, but the negative image makes it difficult to supply and demand skilled construction workers. In response, this study derived the factors influencing the intention of transferring construction workers to other occupations and investigated ways to improve the prevention of leaving other occupations by age of construction workers. The factors influencing the turnover of construction workers have also been derived, and work overload, salary, workplace stability, and employment competitiveness have a significant impact on the intention of new employees to change jobs. According to a survey on ways to improve the prevention of leaving other jobs, those in their 20s and 30s are "improving working conditions, such as providing holidays, paying overtime, compliance with working hours," and those in their 50s and 60s.
