Abstract

Unemployment is an economic phenomenon that is a concern for a country. Unemployment itself is a situation where someone who is in the labor force wants to get a job but cannot get it. The importance of this research is to see the effect of inflation, provincial minimum wage and economic growth on poverty in Indonesia. Inflation is a situation where the prices of goods and services in general experience a continuous and significant increase within a certain period of time, provincial minimum wage (UMP) is the minimum wage set by the provincial government for workers in the region, economic growth is a process of changing economic conditions that occur in a country continuously towards conditions that are considered better within a certain period of time. This study uses secondary data processing sourced from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) with multiple linear regression, from 1990-2023. The results of data processing show that inflation and provincial minimum wage have a positive and significant effect on unemployment in Indonesia, while economic growth has a negative and insignificant effect.
