Abstract

Young and low-skilled workers are the most affected groups due to the labor market disruption caused by the pandemic. One of the impacts is the transition of young workers, especially workers with low skills, or called blue-collar workers. The transition could be a change from blue-collar young workers to those Not in Education, Employment, or Training (NEET). This study aims to examine the determinants of the transition of blue-collar young workers who become Unemployed NEET or Inactive NEET during the pandemic. In this study, data from the National Labor Force Survey (SAKERNAS) with individual panel observations, observed in two survey periods, namely August 2019 and August 2020, were analyzed using multinomial logistic regression. Demographic factors, human capital, and the risk status of COVID-19 in the area where young workers live are important issues in the transition of blue-collar young workers to NEET. Optimizing gender-based employment policies, implementing policies that suit the needs of young workers in rural or urban areas, as well as intensifying the use of the internet for work that can increase worker resilience, are some of the solutions to prevent the NEET transition from blue-collar young workers during the pandemic. Keywords: Blue-Collar Worker, Multinomial logistic regression, NEET, Sakernas, Young worker

Abstract

The global crisis caused by the pandemic also has an impact on the labor market in Indonesia. Young and women workers are strongly affected by the crisis and economic uncertainty due to the pandemic. One of the perceived impacts is the transition of young workers from entrepreneurs to NEET. This study aims to analyze the determinants of the transition of young entrepreneurs to NEET during the pandemic in Indonesia, both in general and gender-specific models. Data from the National Labor Force Survey (SAKERNAS) with individual panel observation in the period of August 2019 and August 2020 were analyzed using multinomial logistic regression. Important issues related to the determinants of the transition from an entrepreneur to NEET in Indonesia are demographic characteristics, COVID-19 risk status in the area of residence, and employment characteristics. Meanwhile, in the gender-specific model, there are differences in the determinants between male and female models. Prevention of the transition to NEET can be done by improving skills and education for young entrepreneurs, one of which is by expanding the scope of kartu prakerja. Specifically, on gender-based policy, women can be directed to the creative economy with flexible working hours
