Recently the relationship between industrial diversification and regional unemployment and employment instability have been the subject of heated debate in Korea due to the specialized cluster development and balanced regional growth policies. Previous researches have been unable to clarify the influence of economic diversification on unemployment and instability in regional economies of Korea. Thus, this article investigates the effects of industrial diversification on regional unemployment and employment stability utilizing plausible theory, proper units of analysis, valid measures and more inclusive analytic models of the diversity-stability relationship. The empirical analysis estimates the influence of industrial diversity, regional employment instability, population size, growth rate, and control variables on unemployment and employment instability in 15 metropolises and provinces during the 1994-2006 period. The results from the fixed effects model using panel data indicate that regions with more diverse industries experience lower unemployment rates and less stable employment. The implication of this paper is that industrial diversification of a region does not guarantee lower employment instability and a comprehensive policy to lower both the unemployment rate and risk in regional labor markets should be devised and implemented in Korea.
