摘要:AbstractTourism is a phenomenon that can generate effects on the labour market, both for visited the state and the state of origin of tourists. However, tourism is contributing to employment growth, business development, social development (the ties between nations), the cultural, environmental quality, development and economic growth sensu lato. Therefore, tourism can have both positive and negative effects on the labour market in both countries and the effects will be analysed in our paper.However, to determine the effects of tourism on the labour market, we must take into account the factors that determine the evolution of tourism, factors that also will be analysed in our paper.With the help of tourism, a state can create new jobs, thus helping to attract surplus labour from other sectors and also contributing to decrease unemployment. Surplus labour force growth and youthful not only determines supply on the labour market, but also increased consumption, so the general supply, resulting in GDP growth and, as a consequence, improve living standards.We believe that tourism helps greatly to economic growth and economic development of our country, so take this as a particularly important topic and present, unvalued tourism being one of the branches of Romania. Therefore, tourism can be a catalyst for improvement of living standards of our country and the quality of life and social welfare.
