This study aims to analyze the condition of labor absorption in Tulungagung Regency during the period 2010–2024 and to identify the influence of economic growth, government expenditure, and average years of schooling on labor absorption in Tulungagung Regency. This research employs a quantitative approach using secondary data obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) of Tulungagung Regency and other related institutions. The data used are time series data covering the period from 2010 to 2024.

The results of the analysis indicate that economic growth in Tulungagung Regency does not have a significant effect on labor absorption. Likewise, government expenditure does not significantly affect labor absorption. On the other hand, average years of schooling have a positive and significant effect on labor absorption in Tulungagung Regency. Simultaneously, economic growth, government expenditure, and average years of schooling significantly influence labor absorption in Tulungagung Regency. These findings suggest that improving the quality of human resources through education plays a more substantial role in increasing labor absorption than economic growth and government expenditure.
