Abstract

Unemployment issues arise due to an imbalance between the labor force and available job opportunities, as well as a mismatch of skills. This situation prompted the government to introduce the Pre-Employment Card Program, aimed at enhancing skills through job training and incentives. This study seeks to analyze the influence of variables such as training programs and incentives under the Pre-Employment Card Program, educational level, work experience, reservation wage, age, and gender on the duration of job searching in Semarang City. The research adopts a quantitative approach, focusing on respondents who have participated in the Pre-Employment Card Program in Semarang City. The analytical method employed is multiple linear regression analysis (Ordinary Least Squares). The findings indicate that the training programs and incentives from the Pre-Employment Card Program, educational level, and reservation wage have a significant impact on the duration of job searching in Semarang City. Conversely, work experience, age, and gender do not significantly influence the job search duration. The independent variables collectively explain 43.32% of the variation in job search duration, while the remaining 56.68% is attributed to other variables outside the research model.

Abstract

This research explores the potential for government transfer programs to replace or ‘crowd out’ private assistance, with a particular focus on the significant rise in public transfers in Indonesia. Previous studies have not thoroughly examined the relationship between public transfers and the existing network of private transfers. This study adds to the empirical literature on intergenerational transfers by investigating the crowding-out effects between public and private transfers in Indonesia. This research draws on data from wave 5 of the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS-5), with 2,240 selected samples of adult children and elderly parent pairs (dyads). Probit models and ordinary least squares were used to estimate and examine the robustness of the connection between private and public transfers. This study reveals that pension benefits reduce adult children’s propensity to transfer income to elderly parents. This finding reinforces the crowding-out effect hypothesis. Meanwhile, social assistance benefits lead to an increased likelihood of adult children transferring finances to elderly parents, creating a crowding-in effect on private transfers due to public transfers in the form of social assistance. The findings indicate that the needs and capabilities of both parents and children are crucial factors influencing the flow of intergenerational transfers.
