This study investigates the relationship between poverty and high school education and involvement in the formal labor force in 30 provinces in Indonesia from 2019 to 2023. This study is sourced from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS). The study sample includes various groups that were randomly selected. Data were collected and analyzed using Pearson correlation to understand the relationship between poverty, education level, and formal labor. The findings show that (i) there is a negative correlation between poverty and education, where an increase in poverty tends to be followed by a decrease in high school education levels. (ii) there is a positive correlation, where the higher the level of high school education, the higher the participation in the formal labor force, and (iii) there is a negative correlation, where the higher the level of poverty, the lower the participation in the formal labor force. This study differs from previous studies because it also explores how these three variables are interconnected and that investment in education and poverty alleviation can be essential strategies to increase participation in the formal labor sector.
