Abstract: 
This study analyzes the workforce transformation performance and the patterns of change and composition of job opportunities in Southern Sumatra. It will also examine the influence of export variables and domestic investment on employment in the Jambi Province. The results showed that the workforce structure in Southern Sumatra has undergone changes but is still dominated by the primary sector (agriculture and mining), meaning that there has not been a transformation of labor. The analysis shows that exports and domestic investment influence the absorption of work in Southern Sumatra.
