Study On The Effect Of Environmental Regulation On Industrial Employment

Since the reform and opening up,my country’s national economy has achieved rapid development,and the industrial economy has played an important role in regional economic development,but at the same time,this sector has also produced a large amount of waste,which has had a serious impact on environmental quality.After entering the 21 st century,the problem of environmental pollution has attracted great attention from the state,and policies related to ecological and environmental protection have been issued successively to comprehensively control the problem of environmental pollution.Therefore,it is of great practical significance to clarify how environmental regulation affects industrial employment and to ensure environmental protection and optimization of industrial employment.This paper summarizes and sorts out relevant literature on the impact of environmental regulation on employment;analyzes the mechanism of environmental regulation’s impact on industrial employment threshold effect and spatial effect;combined with the availability of data,my country’s environmental pollution and investment in governance from2004 to 2019 were analyzed.Analyze the status quo,and calculate the environmental regulation indicators;through the establishment of panel thresholds and spatial measurement models,analyze the threshold and spatial impact of environmental regulation on the scale and structure of industrial employment.The study found that: by increasing the intensity of environmental regulation and technological innovation,environmental regulation will gradually have an impact on the scale of industrial employment that first inhibits and then promotes;when environmental regulation is at a high level,enterprises will change their short-term strategies and start from long-term development plans,and consider increasing investment in environmental governance.The scale and structure of industrial employment have a strong agglomeration effect in space,and a certain area will be regulated according to the environmental regulation intensity of its adjacent areas,to realize the upgrading of the industrial employment structure.Finally,based on the above conclusions,it is proposed that the local government and industrial enterprises should comprehensively consider environmental protection and employment conditions to implement environmental regulations,strengthen the training of industrial high-tech talents and joint governance between regions and strengthen supervision of environmental regulations.
