Based on the theory of labor market segmentation, this study uses the 'relative price method' to estimate the labor market integration of 31 provinces and cities in China (excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan) from 2007 to 2019, and then empirically examines the nonlinear relationship between labor market integration and tourism development. The results show that, from the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics, the development level of tourism shows an upward trend, while the integration of labor market shows a 'fluctuating' upward trend. This shows that with the continuous advancement of the factor marketization policy, the segmentation of the labor market is gradually broken. At the same time, there is a U-shaped relationship between labor market integration and tourism development. When the labor market integration is lower than 19.3, it reduces the tourism development level. However, when the labor market integration exceeds the threshold of 19.3, with the deepening of labor market integration, the development level of tourism is improved. Further research shows that the U-shaped relationship between labor market integration and tourism development is different due to different environmental governance, geographical location and location. Therefore, the relevant departments should take precise measures according to the time and place.
