摘要

尽管坦桑尼亚的旅游部门有就业潜力,但该部门没有充分吸收青年,他们从各种机构毕业后仍然失业。本研究考察了该部门的青年就业程度以及与他们增加就业相关的因素。该研究使用了2018年9月至11月期间收集的445家中小微企业(MSMEs)的横截面数据,结果显示,年轻人在领薪员工中所占比例最大。此外,运用计量经济学方法,研究发现影响企业雇佣更多青年的因素包括企业经营年限、正式获得资金的途径、提供雇佣合同、非网络招聘渠道和客户数量。因此,中小微企业雇佣更多年轻人的潜力在内部取决于可靠的资本渠道和遵守最佳就业实践,例如提供就业合同和确保申请人机会均等。中小微企业的生存和青年就业的增加都依赖于吸引更多的游客。JEL分类:M51, J21, E24

Leveraging Youth Employment in the Tanzania Tourism Sector: The Role of MSMEs
Despite the employment potential of Tanzania’s tourism sector, the sector is not absorbing the youth sufficiently, who remain unemployed after graduating from various institutions. This study examines the extent of youth employment in the sector and factors associated with their increased employment. Using cross-sectional data from 445 micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) collected between September and November 2018, the study reveals that the youth form the largest proportion of wage employees. Furthermore, using econometric techniques, the study finds that factors influencing enterprises to employ more youths include duration of business operation, formal access to capital, provision of employment contracts, non-networking recruitment channels and number of customers. Hence, the potential of MSMEs to employ more youths depends internally on reliable access to capital and adherence to best employment practices, such as providing employment contracts and ensuring equal opportunity to applicants. Both the survival of MSMEs and increased youth employment depend externally on attracting more tourists. JEL Classifications: M51, J21, E24
