Abstract

Employment opportunities are one of the basic human needs as well as an important economic indicator to assess the level of success of a region. This indicator is also a reference for the government in formulating economic policies. One of the main problems of employment in East Java Island is the low level of employment opportunities. In addition, there is a mismatch between the skills of the workforce and the needs of the business world. Many industrial sectors require workers with special skills, while most of the workforce does not have these qualifications. This study aims to analyze the effect of the number of workers, employment, and investment on employment opportunities in East Java Province during the period 2008 to 2023. This study uses a quantitative approach with the multiple linear regression analysis method and SPSS version 29 tools. The data used are secondary data obtained from the BPS website of East Java Province for that period. The results of the study show that the number of workers has a positive and significant effect on employment opportunities in East Java.
