With more and more people entering the labor market, the problem regarding employment is becoming a hot issue within the nation. As we may know, industrial advancement will arrange the amount of employment among all industries. It is presented by the employment quantity in one industry increasing or decreasing and the labor flowing between either different industries or sectors. Generally speaking, it causes the total amount of the unemployed increasing and the structural unemployment happening as we often mention. This paper intends to propose how the industrial development influences the employment environment in Shanghai.This paper consists of five chapters. Chapter 1 is the introduction; Chapter 2 is an analysis of the industrial development in Shanghai; Chapter 3 and 4 give a study about the employment quantity and structurial transform under the impact of industrial development. Chapter 5 is a general analysis based on Chapter 2, 3 and 4, it is to present the industrial development at Shanghai in the future and the corresponding employment transform.This paper will finally draw three conclusions. First of all. With the industry at Shanghai developing, the quantity of the employment will be increasing. Some traditional manufactures are decreasing in the employment. That's because of either their migration or technical improvement. But the service industry, such as finance, insurance, wholesale & retail business, as well as social service, is supplying more opportunities of employment. That will, to some extent, increase the ability of the whole economy to supply employment positions. Secondly, with the improvement of industry, the employment structure is also advancing. The tertiary industry plays a more important role than the secondary industry in supplying opportunities of the employment. But it is worth noticing that many people rushing into the service industry haven't made the production value of this industry going up quickly, but the departure degree of the structure of tertiary industry becomes to be negative. Thirdly, in an ideal situation, there will be more than 2.8 million employment positions available in Shanghai in the future. The major employers are financial intermediation industry, wholesale & retail trade business and leasing & business services industry. In the future, financial intermediation industry will be a very important industry in increasing production value and providing new employment positions in Shanghai.
