Under the background of the high employment pressure in China,tourism employment is an important means to ease the pressure on employment in China.While there are still a series of problems such as structural imbalances and regional imbalances in tourism employment.In order to fully promote tourism employment and ease the pressure on employment in China,it is particularly important to explore the issue of tourism employment between different regions in China.Therefore,this article takes 31 provinces,municipalities,and autonomous regions as the research objects,and explores the relationship between tourism development and tourism employment through the Granger causality test.It uses impulse response function and variance decomposition method to analyze the impact of tourism development on tourism employment.Then it makes a comparison of the influence of tourism development on difference provinces.Finally it summarizes the provincial the development model of tourism employment.It puts forward different strategy to promote tourism employment for different development model.This study draws the following conclusions:The relationship between tourism development and tourism employment shows inter-provincial differences.(1)There is a Granger causality between tourism development and tourism employment in Inner Mongolia,Liaoning,Jilin,Jiangsu,Jiangxi,Guangdong,Guangxi and Xinjiang.And there is no Granger causality in the remaining provinces.The relationship between different indicators of tourism development and tourism employment shows provincial differences.(2)Domestic tourism income of Inner Mongolia and Guangdong is the granger reason of their tourism practitioners.There is no granger causality relationship between inbound tourism income and provincial tourism practitioners.The number of inbound tourists of Jiangxi and Guangdong is the granger reason of tourism practitioners.And the number of domestic tourists in Jilin is the granger reason of its tourism practitioners.The number of star-rated hotels of Liaoning and Guangdong is the granger reason of tourism practitioners.The number of travel agencies in Xinjiang is the granger reason of tourism practitioners.Tourism colleges number of Liaoning and Xinjiang is the granger reason of the number of tourism practitioners and number of tourism colleges students in Jiangsu、Guangxi and Inner Mongolia is the granger reason of tourism practitioners.(3)The degree of influence of tourism development indicators on tourism employment in different provinces has some differences.① The number of star hotels,revenue of star-rated hotels,and the number of students in tourism colleges have a greater impact on the number of tourism employees.The number of travel agencies,travel agency revenues and number of tourism colleges have a relatively small impact on the number of tourism employees.② Domestic tourism income and number of inbound tourists have different effects on the number of tourism employees in different provinces.The domestic tourism income has a greater influence on the number of tourism employees in Inner Mongolia,while it has a smaller impact in Guangdong;the number of inbound tourists has a greater influence on the number of tourism employees in Jiangxi,but less affected in Guangdong.③ Tourism foreign exchange income and number of domestic tourists have no effect on provincial tourism employment.(4)The provincial development model of tourism employment can be mainly divided into the following five types:the tourism economic growth promotion type,the tourism market demand promotion type,the tourism enterprise development driven type,the tourism education development promotion type,and the tourism enterprise development and education development promotion type.According to the division of the development model of provincial tourism employment,it respectively propose targeted development strategies:promoting tourism economic growth,expanding tourist markets,promoting enterprise development,improving tourism education quality,strengthening tourism enterprises and comprehensive development of tourism education. |
