  This work analyzes the tourist sector, the employment generated by the
tourism industries, and its relationship with tourism receipts. The hypothesis
is that there are tourist subsectors with a potentially higher level of income.
The article studies the impact of the distribution of the employed population
in the different subsectors of the tourism industry, controlling for the most
important economic variables, on the level of income per arrival in 24 OECD
countries, using panel data for the period 2008 to 2018. As its main result,
the model indicates that the labor force that increases most the receipts per
arrival is the 'travel agencies and other reservation services', followed by
the 'sports and recreation industry' labor force, while having a large labor
force in the 'food and beverage' or 'cultural industry' operates in the
opposite direction.
