Abstract
As an important aspect of the industrial structure, the employment structure can better reflect the real production, true lifestyle and income distribution, and it is a key indicator to measure the development of the city. As a symbol of the openness and development of the super city, FDI has become one of the core drivers for employment structure optimization. Based on the three perspectives of sector structure, space structure and quality structure of Beijing’s employment, a dual-coupling model is established to investigate the interaction mechanism and coupling effects between FDI and employment structure and to examine the role of FDI in optimizing the employment structure of Beijing. Results show that the employment structure system is better developed than FDI system, and there are coupling effects between FDI and employment structure in terms of employment sector-structure and quality-structure, while the coupling effects are not obvious in terms of space structure.
Highlights
As an important aspect of industrial structure, the employment structure can better reflect the real production status and lifestyle, directly affect income distribution, determine the wage level, and is an important indicator to measure the level and stage of city development
The current literature on Foreign direct investment (FDI) and the employment structure of the host economy mainly focuses on the overall employment effect of FDI, regional employment structure effect, industrial employment structure effect and skill structure effect
For the overall employment demand, most studies claim FDI has a significant effect on overall employment demand of host economy, but whether the effect is positive or negative is quite different according to different status of host economy
Summary
As an important aspect of industrial structure, the employment structure can better reflect the real production status and lifestyle, directly affect income distribution, determine the wage level, and is an important indicator to measure the level and stage of city development. Foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows change the proportion and structure of the original production factors, affecting factor demand and affecting the employment structure. How to effectively use FDI to realize regional employment-structure optimization and economic transformation has become an important topic in current economic development
