This study examines the mediating effect of thinking to future from the impact of social stigma of Out-of-School adolescents on career obstacle, and attempts to grasp the direct effect of social stigma on career obstacle and the indirect effect through thinking to future. To do this, 454 out-of-school adolescents who were in a state of school dropout were used in the data for the second year(2014) of the ‘School Dropout Youth Panel Survey’. As a result of the study, first, it was found that social stigma of Out-of-School adolescents has a positive effect on career obstacle. Second, the social stigma of Out-of-School adolescents was found to have a negative effect on their thinking about the future. Third, it was found that thinking to future has a significant effect on career obstacle. Fourth, in the process of social stigma of Out-of-School adolescents having a significant influence on career impairment, it was found that the thinking to future was partially mediated. Based on the results of this study, we discussed and suggested various measures to reduce career obstacle of Out-of-School adolescents and to support their career.

A variety of activities are important factors influencing career adolescence. Depending on whether it is positively formed in various activities, it is necessary to study how it can improve career identity and how it can affect you.

To this end, this study used data from the Korea Youth Panel Survey (KYPS: Korea Youth Panel Survey) collected by the National Youth Policy Institute (NYPI) for middle school students. In order to achieve this goal, the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey tracked the overall growth and development of students who were in the first and fourth grades of elementary school and the first grade in middle school in 2010, and tracked and accumulated data every year for seven years until 2016.

Based on these research results, the significance of this study is as follows. First, we found the effect of youth's experiences and various activities in community awareness on establishing a sense of self and career identity in adolescence. Second, social consensus is needed to enable youth to develop self-actualization and career plans.

The purpose of this study is to identify the part-time job and work-related conditions among youth labor rights issues and to find ways to improve them. To reach this purpose, 1,940 copies of questionnaires were distributed to youths in K-city, Gyeonggi Province, and 1,591 copies were collected and processed. And conducted FGI by organizing a focus group of professors, field experts, experienced students and teenagers related to youth labor and human rights. The results obtained from the survey and FGI are summarized as follows. First, the consciousness of youth labor rights was quite high. This is because public relations for responding to problems related to minimum wage or part-time jobs have been properly made, so the conditions of legal and institutional responses related to the implementation of part-time jobs seem to be quite positive. Second, youths were regarded as not violating personal treatment at the workplace and not receiving wages on time, and their rights were violated if they did not observe the law on working for youths. Third, the education on youth labor rights was not properly received, and there was a lack of information on the institutions or organizations that can receive youth labor rights education in schools or local governments. Based on the results, this study proposed the necessity of establishing a long-term plan to guarantee youth labor rights, resolving relations between employers and youth, and the expansion of educational opportunities related to youth labor rights, training of human rights education organizations, promotion of education for improving the human rights awareness of employers, and youth labor rights at the local level.
