旅游业创造就业数量为金融业两倍

世界旅游业理事会(WTTC)近日发布报告显示，2016年，世界旅游产业增长了3.3%，全球每10个就业岗位中就有1个是由旅游业创造的，旅游业连续6年引领世界经济。 根据调查，旅游业在2016年增长了3.3%，在世界范围内创造了7.6万亿美元，综合旅游业的直接、间接和引导性影响，该数额占全球GDP的10.2%。 同时，报告也显示，旅游业创造的就业机会显著超过金融不么。当你比较两者创造的GDP时，你会发现，金融服务行业攻占全球GDP 19.4%，旅游业占10.2%，不过后者却创造了超过两倍的全球就业机会。 WTTC总裁兼首席执行官大卫·斯科斯尔说，“这是旅游业连续第6年超过全球经济了，这说明尽管世界上存在经济和政治挑战，但旅游依然富有韧性，人们也渴望不停地旅行和探索新世界。我们行业的持续发展强调了商务和休闲旅游对推动经济发展和在世界范围内创造就业的重要作用。” 报告显示，得益于中国出境游市场和其他国家市场的推动，东南亚是2016年旅游业发展最快的地区，增长8.3%。拉丁美洲是发展最慢的地区，增长0.2%；有些国家表现良好，超出世界平均水平，但巴西经济拖累了整个地区。
