공공기관 정책운영의 제도적 디커플링 영향요인 분석: 장애인 의무고용제도를 중심으로

It is possible to understand and interpret policies through various theoretical propositions. The theory that organizations strategically respond to externally enforced systems in found not only in the adoption of systems but also in the authenticity of utilization. In this study, the phenomenon that the employment system for the disabled widely introduced by public organizations in Korea, cannot be actually established was defined as policy decoupling and analyzed the causes and influencing factors of this phenomenon from an institutional point of view. As a result of the analysis, 394(54.5%) public institutions out of 721 public institutions fell short of the government standard of 3.4%, and 45 institutions with 0% employment rate. And a result of logistic regression analysis to identify the factors influencing decoupling between the formal system and realistic operation of the mandatory employment system for the disabled, it was found that four variables(institutional field, organizational field, union effect, location effect) statistically affect the increase in odds. This study is meaningful in that it provided implications for the government’s policy management by identifying and considering institutional decoupling phenomena selected by organizations in designing and implementing employment policies for the disable.
