Purpose Education-based discrimination has not received sufficient attention within the field of human resource development (HRD), which can provide practical interventions to help solve the hardships of high school graduate employees (HSGEs). This paper aims to bring this issue to the forefront by framing the current marginalization of South Korean HSGEs as an individual-level issue that has repercussions to early career development, and also as an organizational-level issue that has implications on workplace learning and development. Design/methodology/approach This paper used an integrative literature review method by analyzing studies that have focused on the challenges faced by HSGEs. The objective was to identify patterns of their experiences and call attention to strategies they utilize to cope with the marginality they face in the workforce. The Korea Citation Index (KCI), a database that manages Korean domestic journals, was used. In total, 187 articles were found, and 15 articles succinctly matched the research criteria. Findings HSGEs struggled with employment unreadiness and faced discrimination based on their academic background, young age and low-rank position within organizations. In turn, they were vulnerable to poor working conditions (e.g., high work intensity, long working hours, etc.). These challenges led HSGEs to pursue a college degree and/or engage in workplace learning. Originality/value The use of critical human resource development (CHRD) has typically been limited within a South Korean context. We deliberately applied a critical perspective to raise awareness about how contemporary forms of marginality have gone unchecked, specifically by interrogating the exclusion and disempowerment experienced by HSGEs.

This study delves into the complex challenges surrounding the employment of older adults, investigating perceived barriers and their interaction with sociodemographic variables and life satisfaction. Utilizing data from 153 older adults and employing a cross-sectional design and multivariate analysis of covariance, the study uncovers significant associations between gender, age, race, and perceived barriers. Female, older, and racially diverse individuals report higher perceived employment barriers, indicating disparities influenced by sociodemographic factors. Gender and race interactions on these barriers are substantial, with life satisfaction emerging as a significant covariate affecting perceived employment barriers. These findings stress the importance of targeted interventions and policy reforms to address systemic inequalities and promote age-inclusive practices. By embracing diversity, fostering inclusivity, and championing age-friendly policies, stakeholders can create a more equitable labor market, empowering older adults to contribute meaningfully to society.

Cinsiyet ayrımcılığı, hayatın her alanında olduğu gibi iktisadi hayatta da dramatik biçimde varlığını sürdürmektedir. Eşitsizliğin ve ayrımcılığın geçmişten günümüze bazı ülke ve ülke gruplarında azaldığı gözlemlense de hala süregelmesi, konunun nedenlerinin derinlemesine araştırılmasını gerektirmektedir. Özellikle çalışma hayatında üst basamaklara doğru çıkıldığında ayrımcılığa algıların, çeşitli sosyo-ekonomik ve demografik faktörlerin etkili olduğu görülmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye’de yöneticilik pozisyonunda cinsiyet ayrımcılığı yaratan faktörleri tespit etmeye çalışmaktır. Bu bağlamda Avrupa Değerler Araştırması/Dünya Değerler Araştırmasının 2018 yılı Türkiye verileri probit yöntemi ile analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonucunda, eşitliği sağlayabilmek maksadı ile en önemli belirleyicinin annenin eğitimi olduğu görülmüştür. Buna göre annenin eğitim düzeyi yükseldikçe erkeklerin kadınlardan daha iyi yöneticilik yapabileceğine dair algının anlamlı derecede azaldığı tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmada ayrıca, yaş, kişinin kendi eğitim düzeyi, medeni hal, yaşanılan yerin büyüklüğü gibi parametrelerin de söz konusu algıyı azaltan diğer faktörler olduğu ortaya konmuştur. Çalışmanın sonucunda gelir düzeyinin ise herhangi bir anlamlı etkisi tespit edilmemiştir.
