China has the most population of the world;it is also the country that has the most quantity of labor in the world. From the establishment of PRC on, because our country has been implementing full-employment policy and social security policy relating to employment and our present situation that China's economic development is still in the elementary stage of socialism, our labor participation rate has been keeping a comparably high level, recently, along with the deepening of reform and openness, the structure of our labor participation rate has changed enormously too.The thesis bases on the every year's census data from reform and openness to now and data from Statistic Almanac, analyzing the changing orbit of our present labor participation rate, analyzing and proving the age, sex, urban and rural and district differences of the labor participation rate, and then getting the following conclusions: labor participation rate of our adolescence population is descending, adolescence educated population is increasing;the difference of female labor participation rate is notable relating to the difference of economy development level, the labor participation rate of districts which have higher economy development level is inferior to that of districts which have lower economy development level remarkably;because of the limitation of economy development level and the influence of the coverage of social security, the difference of urban and rural, district labor participation rate is bigger.
