Job Change in Latvia: The Role of Labor Market Conditions and Employees’ Socio-Demographic Characteristics
Year: 2017
Type: conference-paper
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: The study examined the relationship between job change, employee's socio-demographic characteristics and labor market conditions in Latvia. Drawing on a nationally representative sample of employees, retrieved from EU-SILC database, inferential and correlational analysis showed that employee job change has relatively closer relationship with the employee age, than with the unemployment rate, number of occupied posts or vacancies in the region, where the employee lives. However, the observed correlations generally can be assessed as weak.
