The Countries Most Reliant on Tourism #infographic

As the global travel and tourism industry stalls, the spillover effects on global employment are far-reaching. A total of 330 million workers are funded by this sector across the globe, adding 10% or $8.9 trillion to global GDP per year.

Today's infographic uses data from the World Travel & Tourism Council and highlights countries that are most dependent on the travel and tourism industry for employment — quantifying the scale of the industry 's contribution to the health of the global economy.

Worldwide, 40 countries depend on the travel and tourism industry for more than 15% of their total jobs. Unsurprisingly, many of the countries that experience the most economic harm are island nations.
