This paper aims to make an in-depth and systematic study on the relationship between international trade and labor force handholding length. The research purposes mainly include the following aspects: First of all, this paper deeply summarizes and discusses various impact mechanisms of international trade on the labor market, laying a corresponding theoretical foundation for empirical research. Secondly, this paper constructs an econometric model of the impact of trade liberalization on the labor market, and uses China's trade, labor and other relevant data to quantify the impact of different technologies on the labor force in China's industrial industries. This paper focuses on the challenges existing in China's economic development, studies and discusses how the regional labor market is affected by the impact of trade liberalization from a dynamic perspective, as well as the differences in the impact in different regions. Finally, relevant policy suggestions are put forward for China's overall trade strategy choice, China's labor market development policy.
