Research Abstract |
As the service industry has the largest share of the working population and the highest ratio of university graduates, it has been the most influenced by the expansion of the university graduate labor force in Japan. Local areas where the total service industry working population increased also saw remarkable expansion of the total working population and also the ratio of university graduates in employment. On the other hand, local areas where the increase in the service industry working population was less significant did not see a rise in the ratio of university graduates. Furthermore, the latter areas had relatively small increases in their young labor force. So there are differences by local areas in capacities for especially young university graduates absorption, and these factors increase area differentials within the labor market.
