Based on the results obtained that, GDP, wage and investment get together influence significantly on absorption of worker in West Java. Then partially, GDP variable has a positive effect to the employment. Wage factor has a significant negative effect to the employment, while the investment factor has a positive effect but insignificant effect to the employment. This research suggests local government is expected to further encourage and push even spur economic growth, especially growth in every sector. Local governments need to overcome wages problems so that can improve the welfare of the workers without compromising the interests of employers. Investment in West Java province which has no significant effect on employment indicate that as long as these investors tend to impose a system of capital-intensive rather than labor-intensive, so that local governments should be more selective in granting licenses to investors associated with employment needs.
