Kayıtdışı çalışma ile yaşam ve iş memnuniyeti arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi: Birlikte değişim analizinin bulguları

Bu çalışma, ücretli çalışanlar arasında kayıtdışı çalışma ile yaşam ve iş memnuniyeti arasındaki bağıntıyı araştırdı. Birlikte değişim analizi kapsamında, 2004-2012 dönemini içeren Türkiye Yaşam Memnuniyet Araştırmasının verileri kullanılarak, Sıralı Probit ve Sıradan En Küçük Kareler yöntemleriyle kayıtdışı çalışmanın çeşitli memnuniyet ölçümlerine etkileri tahmin edildi. Bulgular, kayıtdışı çalışma ile yaşam ve iş memnuniyet ölçümlerinin birlikte negatif yönde değiştiğini işaret etti. Ayrıca, kayıtdışı çalışma ile memnuniyet ölçümleri arasındaki negatif bağıntının cinsiyet, yaş ve eğitim gruplarına göre nasıl değiştiği incelendi. Alt grupların tümünde, bu negatif ilişkinin bulunduğu belirlendi. Ancak bazı memnuniyet ölçümlerinin incelenmesinde, kadınlar, üniversite mezunları ve yaşlılar arasında, kayıtdışı çalışmanın olumsuz etkisinin zayıfladığı yönünde bulgulara ulaşıldı.

Informal employment and life and job satisfaction: A statistical association analysis

This study examines the statistical association between salaried employees’ informal status and their life and job satisfaction. In the framework of the association analysis, using data from the Turkey Life Satisfaction Survey for the 2004-2012 time period, Ordered Probit and Ordinary Least Squares Methods were implemented to estimate the impact of informal employment on various measures of satisfaction. Estimation results suggest that informal employment is negatively related to the life- and job-satisfaction measures. This negative association remains robust across different specifications and estimation procedures. Furthermore, the study also evaluates the extent to which the negative associations between informal employment and satisfaction measures differ across gender, age, and education groups. The analysis highlights that the adverse consequences of informal employment are prevalent in all sub-groups. For some measures of satisfaction, however, there is some evidence that these negative consequences are weaker among women, university graduates, and older individuals.
