Abstract

경제적으로 대외의존도가 높은 우리나라는 무역구조의 변화에 따라 노동시장에 상당한 변화를 겪어왔다. 대표적으로 2000년대 이후 중국과 베트남의 급속한 경제성장으로 인한 대중국ㆍ대베트남 수출입 증가는 우리나라 산업별 고용구조를 바꿨을 뿐 아니라 근로자들의 소득과 고용안정성에 적지 않은 영향을 미쳤다. 수입경쟁심화 산업에 종사했던 근로자는 장기에 걸쳐 근로소득 증가율이 감소하고 비자발적 실직을 경험할 확률이 높아졌지만, 수출증가산업에 종사한 근로자는 동 기간에 더 큰 근로소득 증가율과 고용안정성을 누렸다. South Korea, with its heavy economic reliance on international trade, has undergone significant changes in its labor market due to trade shocks. Since the early 2000s, for example, the rapid economic growth of China and Vietnam has dramatically increased trade volumes between these countries and Korea. This surge has notably altered Korea’s industrial employment landscape, affecting worker income levels and job security. Workers in industries facing heightened import competition from China and Vietnam have experienced diminishing earned income growth rates and an increased risk of involuntary job loss, while those in industries with rising exports to the countries have benefited from enhanced income growth and job stability. (the rest omitted)
