A Study on Quality-of-Life Perception of Informal Employment in Urban Tourism

Abstract

In previous studies on the impact of tourism development on the quality of life of urban residents, it is difficult to reduce the interference of non-tourism factors and highlight the direct effect of tourism on the quality of life by treating urban residents as homogeneous groups. Taking five scenic spots in Fuzhou City as example, this paper focuses on the informal tourism employees among residents. Through the analysis of 151 convenience and snowball samples, it studies the composition of their quality of life, and compares the differences in the quality of life of different employees. The results show that, different from other residents, tourism informal employees pay more attention to leisure and entertainment, work prospects, family life, work status, social communication, consumption and safety, ability development and living conditions, accounting for 58.3%. In areas where interpretation is large, happiness is generally low. The study further shows that the well-being of employed people with different demographic characteristics and employment conditions is not different in most areas of quality of life, their overall well-being is highly similar, and their well-being is at a medium level.
