On Advancement Of Tertiary Industry To Drive Employment In Fujian Province

Employment is the basic for people's livelihood. Expanding employment and achieve the goal of full employment is the inherent demand of"people oriented"Scientific Outlook on Development , an urgent need to construct harmonious socialist society and an objective requirement to build Fujian province as the"forerunner in two aspects"in West-strait economic zone .there are still many problems concerning employment in Fujian province ,such as difficulty in re-employment for the laid-off from state-owned enterprises, large scale of frictional unemployment for college students and invisible un-employment for rural labor and an acute structural imbalance in the labor market . Counting on the development of tertiary to stimulate employment is a sufficient way-out for employment problems in Fujian province, which will not only take in more surplus labors rural and urban, but also stimulate the adjustment and updating of industrial structure, and pave the way to stability and development in Fujian province.Such methods as Quantitative analysis, qualitative analysis, comparison and induction, and such software as SPSS and ORIGIN are employed in this paper. Firstly, based on the analysis of the status quo and problems of employment in Fujian province, and on the comparison of three ways to settle those problems, it is pointed out that to count on tertiary to settle the problems in Fujian province is an inevitable way. Secondly, the changes of employment proportion for primary, secondary and tertiary industries and for each sectors in tertiary industry. On the basis of the comparison to employment structure home and abroad and with the aid of three models on changes of employment structure, the employment structure problems in tertiary industry is revealed , and the factors effecting employment in the industry is also analyzed . Thirdly, the propellant force of tertiary industry to employment is analyzed in the following aspects: rise proportion of production value leading to rise in employment proportion via industrial structure deviation, increase in GDP causing the increase in volume of employment in tertiary industry via elasticity of employment, and the change of tertiary proportion to the three industries propelling the total volume of employment via SPSS; a curve chart on the change of employment in sectors of tertiary is produced through ORIGIN to predict the employment potential of each sectors . Finally, based on the analysis above, the developing direction for tertiary is pointed out and relevant countermeasures are put forward.The conclusions are as followed:1. Economic development will promote employment, but not sufficient enough; elasticity of employment for secondary decreases continuously, which means it has a increasingly weak employment driving force; the elasticity of employment for tertiary industry shows sign of stable rise, and it can take in large volume of labor, which enables it to be the best way to settle the employment problem.2. from the aspect of industrial structure deviation ,the absorbing capacity for tertiary will be larger ; from the aspect of elasticity of employment , each increase in percentage point of GDP will lead to rise of 0.38 percentage point in employment of tertiary industry ; from the relationship between change in employment structure and employment volume , each increase in percentage point of employment proportion of tertiary industry will cause an increase of 0.56418 million in employment, much higher than the primary and secondary industry .3. From the aspect of employment potential for each sector in tertiary industry, the circulation department enjoys the largest proportion of employment and will maintain this state in the future; the department offering service to production and livelihood is still weak in its employment proportion, but it is the trend for it to take in more employment and to be the channel to absorb labors; the department offering service to improve cultural and scientific level and enhance civil quality will expect increase in employment as the institutional reform progresses; the department offering service to social needs is weak in its capacity to absorb labors.4. The direction for tertiary to absorb more labor will be enhancing traditional service comprehensively, speed up development of new service, promote advance of producer service, and develop rural service.
