To realize the benign coupling between human resource structure and industrial structure, and promote high-quality economic development, the article analyzes the coupling relationship between human resource and industrial structure, conducts a comparative study on the coupling between human resource and industrial structure in nine provinces in the Yellow River Basin by using 2020 statistics.
