| Summary: | Tourism can have a key role in the national economy by offering opportunity for employment, contributing to improvement of the current account balance and stimulating the economic growth. On the other hand, more and more attention should be paid to the serving of the tourist in certain countries where the number of the tourists is large as well as environmental and social consequences can be expected.Therefore, the governments are interested in the controlled development of tourism for economic, social, cultural, architectural and natural environmental reasons equally.Today, around the world, one of the most important governmental tasks is to stimulate the development of the tourism sector considering its key role in the job creation.This essay investigates the role of employment in economy of the developed countries, focusing on the states possessing the largest tourism revenue. The sector means an important pulling power for each macro economy having a positive effect on different areas of the economy. At the same time, the average income of the persons employed in the accommodation services and catering is “traditionally” one of the lowest recognised ones among the national economic sectors in the European countries. With analysing the data of the examined period and comparing them to the targets simultaneously, we can experience that, at the end of 2013-2014, a measure of growth started in point of the employment and the gross average income but it still lags behind the goals stated in 2005. The economic crisis coincided with this period, effects of which cannot be left out of account because it greatly influenced not only the Hungarian but the global tourism as well. However, in the long term, it seems likely that economic role of the tourism, including the stability and enlargement of the labour market, will intensify both globally and in the EU’s member states in future years. |
