Abstract

During the last decades, the deepening of globalisation has led to an intensification of two forms of international human mobility – tourism and migration. Considering the high proportion of migrant workers in the tourism industry, migration’s possible negative or positive impact on international tourism comes to the forefront. The current article aims to explore the influence of migration, including labour migration, on tourism flows and the impact of tourism flows and migration on the labour market both in donor and host countries. The statistical basis of the analysis was the annual panel data on labour market and tourism indicators for selected EU member states. We have built three panel data econometric models on 17 member states of the European Union on the data from 2005 to 2019. The results suggest that migration and labour migration are significant factors for international tourism and the labour market, with immigration positively impacting both the tourism industry and labour market. At the same time, emigration has a negative effect mainly due to the possible “brain drain” in the donor countries. On the other hand, international tourism has a strong positive influence on the labour market, providing strong evidence for the phenomena of migration-led tourism in the selected member-states of the European Union. Our primary assumption in this regard is that immigration and labour migration contribute to the increase in international tourism arrivals through VFR tourism and cultural enrichment of the destination countries. The current study contributes to the modern research on the interconnections between labour market and tourism. Policy makers can use the results to improve labour market and tourism conditions.

劳动力迁移与旅游业流动:以欧盟为例
在过去的几十年里,全球化的深化导致了两种形式的国际人口流动的加剧-旅游和移民。考虑到外来务工人员在旅游业中所占的比例很高,外来务工人员对国际旅游业可能产生的负面或积极影响就摆在了首位。本文旨在探讨包括劳工移徙在内的移徙对旅游流量的影响,以及旅游流量和移徙对捐助国和东道国劳动力市场的影响。分析的统计基础是选定欧盟成员国的劳动力市场和旅游业指标的年度小组数据。本文利用2005 - 2019年欧盟17个成员国的数据,构建了三个面板数据计量模型。研究结果表明,移民和劳动力迁移是影响国际旅游和劳动力市场的重要因素,移民对旅游业和劳动力市场都有积极影响。与此同时,移徙主要由于捐助国可能出现“人才外流”而产生消极影响。另一方面,国际旅游对劳动力市场具有强烈的积极影响,为欧洲联盟某些特定成员国的移民主导旅游现象提供了强有力的证据。在这方面,我们的主要假设是,移民和劳工移徙通过VFR旅游和目的地国家的文化丰富促进了国际旅游人数的增加。本研究为劳动力市场与旅游业相互关系的现代研究做出了贡献。政策制定者可以利用这些结果来改善劳动力市场和旅游状况。
