Socio-economic sustainability for tourism workers does not play a prominent role in contemporary tourism economic impact studies. Rather, to promote economic growth paradigms, the focus lies on aggregated employment and income effects. To better understand tourism's contribution to decent work and reduced inequalities (Sustainable Development Goals 8 and 10, respectively), our study assesses tourism's socio-economic impact by focussing on meso-level perspectives from major tourism institutions that are complemented with macro-level results gained through an occupation-based Input-Output model. Although income inequalities across tourism occupations remain relatively low, income inequalities over a period of nine years have increased. Tourism employees continue to work in precarious occupations due to limited training and career opportunities. Employers demand skilled vocational professions and provide non-monetary benefits; however, respective salaries remain average. Altogether, tourism contributes to Sustainable Development Goals 8 and 10 only moderately, and regional tourism institutions need to continue their development strategies for greater sustainability.

旅游工作者的社会经济可持续性在当代旅游经济影响研究中没有发挥重要作用。相反，为了促进经济增长范式，重点在于总体就业和收入效应。更好地了解旅游业对体面工作和减少不平等的贡献（分别是可持续发展目标 8 和 10），我们的研究通过关注主要旅游机构的中观层面来评估旅游业的社会经济影响，并辅以通过基于职业的投入产出模型获得的宏观层面的结果。尽管旅游职业的收入不平等仍然相对较低，但九年间的收入不平等有所增加。由于培训和职业机会有限，旅游业员工继续从事不稳定的职业。雇主要求熟练的职业，并提供非金钱利益；然而，各自的薪水保持平均水平。总而言之，旅游业对可持续发展目标 8 和 10 的贡献不大，
