数字技能对青年就业质量的影响及作用机制研究OACHSSCD

In the era of the digital economy,digital skills have become an important factor affecting youth employment quality.Based on wage bargaining theory,information asymmetry theory,and work-family boundary theory,this study employs data from the 2021 Chinese Social Survey to explore the impact of digital skills on youth employment quality and its mechanisms.The study finds that digital skills significantly enhance youth employment quality.Specifically,digital skills have a more pronounced effect on youth wage income,labor protection,job stability,and career advancement.Heterogeneity analysis indicates that the positive effect of digital skills on employment quality is greater for groups with lower income levels,those without high school education,and youth working outside the state sector.Mechanism analysis reveals that digital skills improve employment quality by reducing perceived unemployment risk,increasing equality of employment opportunities,and balancing work and family life.Hence,the study suggests vigorously strengthening digital infrastructure construction,enhancing the public service system for digital employment,reinforcing digital skills training,and fully promoting the role of digital skills in assisting youth to achieve full and high-quality employment.
