Abstract
Unemployment is one of the main problems facing Algeria, due to their negative dimensions and serious
consequences on the country’s economy and social life. Therefore, Algeria government has developed policies of
employment concerning the category of young people; especially university graduates. This is resulting in a new version
of labor, temporary labor instead of permanent labor; that represents an essential mechanism for integration and social
cohesion. The objective of this paper is to investigate labor representation of the young university graduates category
rather than their ambition realized from temporary labor. In this study, a conceptual framework is developed based on
extend literature review and examination of data collected from 60 young university graduates working in public sector.
Globally, there is a difference between female’s and male’s labor representation. Female labor is a way to self –
realization and appreciation in the first confederation and them a means of financial independence. While for the male
labor is festival way to salary then an obligation for society services. As a result of their ambitions, temporary labor may
help to absorb unemployment rate especially for university graduate.
