Abstract

This study aims to analyze the determinants of the regional unemployment rates in West Java Province in the period 2010-2019. Due to the diversity of characteristics between regions, this study uses Geographically Weighted Panel Regression (GWPR) analysis. The results showed that all the independent variables used had a significant effect on the regional unemployment rate in West Java. It is recommended that the government encourage efforts to reduce unemployment in their regions by investing more in real sector development, attracting investors in the manufacturing and service sectors, and improving education and skills.
