Regional Differences in Motivations regarding Labor Mobility: University Students? Perspective
Original language description
Many countries currently experience the "brain drain" phenomenon, i.e. the departure of qualified people, which iscomplex and affects many areas. This paper investigates the phenomenon from the regional perspective and in the context of global production networks. Its aim is to compare the identified push and pull factors influencing the labor mobility of university students in two regions of the Czech Republic ? Ústí nad Labem (UnL) and Mladá Boleslav (MB). Within this benchmarking of two regions, it is monitored whether the students' assessment is unique for the given regions. A questionnaire construction (N=108) and a nonparametric test were used. The comparison between regions was carried out by evaluating the importance, satisfaction and differences between the defined factors. The difference revealed the factor "image" as a possible pull factor for both groups of students, however, it occurs at a very low value, as well as the factors "good environment" for students from MB and "family and friends" for students from UnL. The biggest difference is found among students from UnL when it comes to the "good job" factor, which can be one of the main reasons for departure. By contrast, for students from MB, the strongest push factor is "affordable housing". Evaluations are important for regional actors who make decisions about regional development. Finally, strategic measures are formulated to consolidate and strengthen the position in global networks and in the competition for talent.
