A Study on Recruitment Structure of Construction Workforce Through Surveying Wages in the Construction Industry

건설업 임금실태 조사를 통한 건설인력의 취업구조에 관한 연구

While the recovery of local construction industry is picking up steam, and the number of the employed in the construction industry is on the increase, workforce supply is out of balance in its quality as well as quantity, and with economic crisis facing the country, construction and recruitment methods are in transition. In addition, rising demand in skilled workforce and a workforce in short supply have expedited wage rises and have brought broad effects on construction including productivity and construction time. Such imbalance in construction workforce supply also causes various structural changes by category. This research compares and analyzes data on annual wages of construction workforce, analyzes the state of construction workforce supply, understands recruitment structure in accordance with workforce supply conditions, and looks over characteristic changes in recruitment structure. With reflections drawn from these, this paper suggests responsive measures to future construction circumstances - changes to wages of construction workforce - as well as prospects of future construction workforce supply and measures designed for stable medium and long-term workforce supply.

최근 국내 건설경기의 회복세가 뚜렷해지고 건설취업자수도 증가세를 보이고 있으나 인력수급의 양적, 질적 불균형 양상이 나타나고 있고, 경제위기를 겪으면서 건설 생산 방식과 인력 활용 방식이 과도기적 양상을 나타낸다. 또한 기능인력에 대한 수요 증가와 구조적인 공급 부족 현상은 임금 상승을 가속화시켜왔으며, 생산성과 공기 조절을 비롯한 건설 생산활동 전반에 지대한 파급효과를 미치며 건설 인력 수급의 불균형 상태는 부문별로 상이한 취업구조의 변화를 야기한다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 조사된 각 연도의 건설업 임금실태 조사를 비교분석하여 건설인력수급현황을 분석하고 건설 수급 여건에 따른 건설 인력의 취업구조를 파악하여 취업구조 변화의 특성을 살펴보고 시사점을 도출한다.
