Abstract
This research aims to analyze the factors that influence the millennial generation (Y) and Z as precarious employees in the era of digitalization. The research design used was cross-sectional, involving 122,309 individual subjects who were young people aged 15 to 43 years. Data was taken from the results of Sakernas 2021. Chi-square analysis and logistic regression were used to determine the relationship between risk factors and the probability of becoming a precarious employee in the YZ generation. The research results show that based on the characteristics of age, YZ workers, women and individuals with less than a high school education tend to fill uncertain jobs. Work experience also has a significant role, where higher work experience is associated with a lower probability of being a precarious worker. However, marital status and income do not differ between precarious and non-precarious employees. On the other hand, based on job characteristics, the association between internet use and the risk of precarious work highlights the importance of digital connectivity in creating more stable employment opportunities. The employment sector is the dominant factor in reducing the risk of precarious employees, especially in the agricultural sector. The implication is that policies that pay attention to conditions in the agricultural sector and encourage digital inclusivity in the workplace can reduce job insecurity. These findings provide concrete guidance for formulating policies responsive to differences in working conditions in various sectors and groups and support efforts to reduce job uncertainty for generations Y and Z in Indonesia.
