According to previous studies, the Chinese revised Hukou system has not been proven to be effective in the short-term movement of the rural labor force or in controlling urban populations. In this study, we address and analyze the self-selection problem from the perspective of inflows of short-term migration from the rural labor force and the endogeneity problem in the adoption of the revised Hukou system, based on the data from China Family Panel Studies (CFPS). The study shows that the revised Hukou system adopted by Chinese local governments was significantly efficient and harmed the short-term migration decisions of the rural labor force.

Academics, executives and top managers have solid, but also diverse, views on the Industry 4.0 issue, as do the employment policymakers. Without urgent and targeted measures to manage the short-term transition and shape the labor force with the skills needed for the future, governments will have to face increasing unemployment and social impacts, while companies will have to deal with a sluggish consumer base. The main goal of this paper is to find out how managers are perceived and informed about the Industry 4.0 concept and how quickly these views are changing. To accomplish this goal, methods such as analysis, synthesis, statistical methods and logical deduction are to used along with the conducted survey being executed by a questioner method. The conducted survey presented by the authors in this paper aims to support the discussion and open up opportunities for further action by providing views to HR managers in strategic employers who are among the leading representatives of new trends and are the key actors in the implementation of future labor development strategies in the Slovak Republic.

Globalization in the past few decades has facilitated the growth of economies and individuals that possess mobile capital and knowledge. However, the situation of less educated workers did not improve as expected because the possibilities for employers to adopt technology, outsourcing, or moving elsewhere serve to keep their bargaining power low. Gaps are widening between less educated and educated workers and between developing and developed economies. This paper suggests that a closer cooperation among Japan, the newly industrial economies and Southeast Asia in monitoring and facilitating short-term labor migration can be a positive factor in narrowing the gaps. Enhancing the skill formation functions of the migration process and upgrading the skills of workers in labor importing economies are among the critical areas that would benefit from regional cooperation.

This study aimed to analyze the influence of the GDP, the real interest rate, the labor force, the private investment in Indonesia. The data used in this research is time-series data from 2000 to 2014. The research model uses an error correction model (ECM). The results showed in the long term, GDP, labor force and real interest rates have a statistically significant relationship good and theory with a confidence level of 95 percent. In the long-term estimate found that the labor force will greatly affect private investment and the estimated short-term real interest rates affect the amount of investment that will go to Indonesia. In coefficient explained, the labor force has a strong influence and advice foreign investment into the country. For short-term model estimation results indicate GDP and real interest rates significantly affect the labor force in private investment but no significant effect on private investment. However, both long term and short term, variable real interest rates still the basic reason for investing. In result of cointegration explain that the variable GDP, real interest rates, and the laborforce has a cointegration relation to investment in the long term. The government needs to increase investment and promote the economy and set the interest rates are low. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis pengaruh PDB, tingkat bunga riil, angkatan kerja, terhadap investasi swasta di Indonesia. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah data time-series tahun 2000 hingga tahun 2014. Model penelitian ini menggunakan Error Corection Model (ECM). Hasil menunjukkan dalam jangka panjang, PDB, angkatan kerja dan suku bunga riil memiliki hubungan signifikan baik statistik dan teori dengan tingkat kepercayaan 95 persen. Pada estimasi jangka panjang ditemukan bahwa angkatan kerja akan sangat mempengaruhi investasi swasta dan estimasi jangka pendek, tingkat suku bunga riil mempengaruhi besarnya investasi yang akan masuk ke Indonesia. Secara koefisien menjelaskan, angkatan kerja memiliki pengaruh yang cukup kuat dan memberi masukan investasi asing ke dalam negeri. Untuk hasil estimasi model jangka pendek menunjukkan PDB dan tingkat bunga riil berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap investasi swasta tetapi angkatan kerja tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap investasi swasta. Namun demikian, baik jangka panjang maupun jangka pendek, variabel tingkat suku bunga riil masih menjadi alasan dasar untuk berinvestasi. Dalam hasil kointegrasi menjelaskan bahwa variabel PDB, suku bunga riil, dan angkatan kerja memiliki hubungan kointegrasi terhadap investasi dalam jangka panjang. Pemerintah perlu meningkatkan investasi dan memajukan perekonomian serta mengatur suku bunga yang rendah.
