BEŞERÎ SERMAYE, EŞİTLİK ALGISI, İSTİHDAM VE ÜLKE EKONOMİSİ İLİŞKİ ANALİZİ: TÜRKİYE ÖRNEĞİ

Eğitim, her alanda olduğu üzere tüm dünyada kadınların istihdamına katılımlarında ve güçlendirilmesinde temel faktördür. Ancak bu eğitimin gücü kültürel ve algısal olarak ülkeden ülkeye değişmektedir. Çalışmada, eğitim-istihdam bağlantısını açıklayan beşerî sermaye teorisi ve eşitlik algısı-istihdam bağlantısını açıklayan eşitlik teorisinden yararlanılmaktadır. Dünya Değerleri Araştırması altıncı dalgası (2010-2014) verileri kullanılarak Türkiye’nin istihdam piyasası yapısına eğitimin, cinsiyetin, eşitlik algısının, medeni durumunun nasıl etkilediğini ortaya koymak ve eğitimin ülke ekonomisiyle ne şekilde ilişkisi olduğunu açıklamak amaçlanmaktadır. Bunun için Türkiye örnekleminden toplanan 1.605 anket üzerinden çalışmaya uygunluğu açısından 1.284 anket analizlere alınmıştır. Çalışmada lojistik regresyon ve karar ağacı analizlerinden yararlanılarak eşitlik algısı ve eğitimin artması durumunda istihdama pozitif etkisi olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmaktadır. Aynı zamanda eğitime yapılan yatırımların, ekonomiyle paralel hareket ettiği ve istihdamda oransal cinsiyet farklılığı yarattığı bulunan diğer sonuçlardır.

HUMAN CAPITAL, PERCEPTION OF EQUALITY, EMPLOYMENT AND ECONOMY RELATION ANALYSIS: THE CASE OF TURKEY

Education, as in all other areas, is a key factor in the employment and empowerment of women throughout the world. However, the power of this education varies culturally and perceptually from country to country. In this study, the human capital theory explaining the education-employment connection and the equality theory explaining the perception of equality-employment are utilized. Using the sixth wave (2010-2014) data of the World Values Survey, it is aimed to reveal how education, gender, perception of equality and marital status affect the labor market and explain how education is related to the national economy. For this sample of 1,284 out of 1,605 survey questionnaires collected from Turkey it was to analyze in terms of fitness for work. In this study, logistic regression and decision tree analyzes are used and it is concluded that there is a positive effect on employment in case of equality perception and education. At the same time, it is found that investments in education move in parallel with the economy and create proportional gender differences in employment.
