Core Viewpoint - The article emphasizes the increasing pressure on youth employment and the need for enhanced employment stabilization policies in response to rising unemployment insurance expenditures [1][6][8]. Group 1: Causes of Employment Pressure - Structural unemployment is primarily driven by industrial restructuring and potential frictional unemployment due to tariffs. The proportion of unemployed individuals with junior high school education remains around 35%, while the share of college graduates and postgraduates has been increasing, reaching 15.5% and 2.2% respectively by 2022 [2][12][72]. - The overlap between low-education groups and migrant workers is significant, with both groups transitioning from manufacturing and construction to the tertiary sector. In 2022, 37.9% of unemployed individuals previously worked as production equipment operators, an increase of 7.5 percentage points since 2018 [17][72]. - Trade friction poses a risk to employment stability, particularly in industries with high reliance on imports from the U.S., such as computer communication and electrical machinery, where the average employment share exceeds 15% [3][30][78]. Group 2: Employment Opportunities - New demands and technologies are creating new job opportunities, particularly in social and life services. By 2023, employment in the tertiary sector increased by 2.8 percentage points compared to 2018, reaching 33.8% [4][40][79]. - Flexible employment roles, such as ride-hailing drivers and delivery personnel, are rapidly increasing, with the number of professional streamers projected to grow by 157% in 2024. This growth is attributed to lower educational requirements and experience needed for these positions [46][79]. - High-education groups face challenges as traditional industries contract while new technology sectors expand. From 2019 to 2023, employment in new technology sectors like electronic devices and electrical machinery grew at average rates of 9%, 8%, and 8%, while traditional sectors like oil and gas extraction saw declines of -5%, -3%, and -2% [52][53][79]. Group 3: Core Strategies for Employment Stabilization - The focus for stabilizing employment should be on enhancing support for the service sector while addressing skill mismatches in the labor market. Recent policies, such as paid internships for graduates, aim to bridge the gap between education and job market needs [5][57][80]. - Developing the service sector is crucial for alleviating employment pressure on low-education and migrant worker groups, as industries like accommodation and retail generate more jobs per unit of added value [60][67][80]. - Small and micro enterprises, representing a significant portion of the economy, require more fiscal and financial policy support to stimulate market demand and reduce operational costs. Recent surveys indicate that 47.4% of small business owners seek cost reduction measures, while 40.6% require financial support [67][80].
