What roles do high-growth small- and medium-sized enterprises play in a slow-growing region? The job diversity and inclusive growth in Incheon, South Korea
This study examines the labor market outcomes of high-growing incumbent small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Incheon during the 2013-2016 economic downturn. By using employee-employer matched panel data, this study found that only a small number of high-growth firms (HGFs) created the majority of new jobs, while other firms reduced their employees in response to the economic challenges. SME HGFs, on the whole, have a tendency to hire people with high human capital. However, a group of HGFs exhibits a different hiring pattern, specifically targeting marginalized individuals in the labor market. Micro-firms that show one time sharp growth are more likely to hire middle-aged unemployed women and provide them with secure and well paying positions. These findings highlight the significant role of incumbent micro-HGFs in job creation and inclusive growth, emphasizing the need for increased attention from policy circles.
期刊介绍:
Local Economy is a peer-reviewed journal operating as an interdisciplinary forum for the critical review of policy developments in the broad area of local economic development and urban regeneration. It seeks not only to publish analysis and critique but also to disseminate innovative practice. One particular concern is with grassroots community economic development strategies and the work of voluntary organisations, considered within the context of wider social, political and economic change.
