고졸 취업자의 지역이동 결정요인

With the rising trend of low birth rates and an aging population, various social and economic concerns are becoming more and more real. From the perspective of local governments, regional areas are facing extinction due to the continued outflow of young people. Under these circumstances, local governments' policies to boost high school graduates' employment are all the more important in that they can not only resolve job-education mismatches but also curb the transfer of young people from non-metropolitan regions and boost local industries. This study demonstrated the determinants of regional migration of high school graduates. Based on the results, the following implications were derived. First, there is a high possibility that high-performing local talent will be outflow of talented people from the region in the process of getting their first job after graduating from high school. Second, the outflow of youth labor from non-capital areas is still higher than that of the metropolitan area. Third, there is a difference in the possibility of local relocation depending on the high school category, and for vocational high school graduates, the possibility of regional settlement is high. Finally, career paths, employment, and specialized subjects conducted by schools affect the possibility of employment but do not have a significant impact on the possibility of regional movement.
