Abstract

The level of labor cost is the key to the innovation and development of small and medium-sized enterprises. In order to further locate the relationship between the two, an empirical analysis of labor cost and innovation investment intention of small and medium-sized enterprises is carried out. Taking the small and medium-sized enterprises as the research object, this paper investigates the labor cost of the employees in the enterprises, selects the effective employee information, and obtains the sample data. By setting independent variables and dependent variables, the structural equation model of SMEs' innovation investment intention is constructed. At the same time, based on SEM model, this paper tests the impact of labor cost on innovation investment intention from two aspects of internal and external factors. By using the multiple regression method, this paper analyzes the innovation investment intention of small and medium-sized enterprises, and completes the research on labor cost and innovation investment intention of small and medium-sized enterprises.
