  • Abstract
    This study carried out an empirical analysis on the IT-caused shifts in labor demand with the data of 498 Korean companies having domestic sales of KRW 100 billion or more during the six-year period between the fiscal years 2003 and 2008. The result of the analysis find found that IT-caused shifts in labor demand took place in favor of IT convergence industries and service industries. On the other hand, there was no a statistically-significant relationship between the labor turnover indexes and IT in IT production industries and IT high usage industries. The shifts in labor demand occurred most frequently in service industries when IT investment increased.
