This paper is aimed to examine how could that figure derived from vocational school graduates be reduced by the program in education that taking an opportunity from current several regulations issued by central government and competency-based human resources development to equip students and graduates with a set of competencies hence they will be competent and able to compete in the job market. This article was produced by using a systematic literature review method to explore and provide an overview of CSR program shifting in the education setting. The authors recommended the switch from a traditional or philanthropic model to a contemporary or strategic one by deploying internship, apprenticeship, and teaching factory to surmount the aforementioned issue. Finally, this paper offers managerial implication in general and suggestion for future academic research to explore and to assess their effectiveness in tackling poverty and impact on corporations, schools, and students or graduates. Keywords: competence, corporate social responsibility, vocational education INTRODUCTION Unemployment is one of the big problems in many countries, including Indonesia. Of a population of more than 268.57 million, the workforce in August 2019 totaled 133.56 million people. However, there were only 126.51 million people employed and 7.05 million unemployed. The level of open unemployment was mostly supplied by vocational school graduates. In August 2019, the dominance of vocational school graduates in the open unemployment figure was 10.42% [1].

On the one hand, technological disruptions give some benefits, but on other hand provide challenges for example automation or workers displacement by machines [4]. Although automation and digitalization are deemed to support humans instead of replacing them [5], or only a few works will be eliminated [6], the condition we perceive today is definitely different in that there are numerous types of jobs emerging, machines on the production line or technology replace humans, digital or Information Technology based companies that only consist of a few people make millions of dollars. The reason for the replacement of humans by technology such as robots because they show the ability to replace human labor, not only in routine tasks requiring low skills but also in jobs requiring high and complex skills [7]. Failure to mitigate graduates who are not ready to face this will increase the unemployment rate and unable to compete with other countries amid free-trade partnerships allowing labor mobility within the region, which absolutely will have an impact on people's welfare. This trend and situation, combined with the condition of vocational institutions and their graduates, need to be taken into account by the government and industries as partners of
