Abstract

As the traditional labor-intensive industry in our country, the textile industry plays a supportive role in the economy of our country. Recently, the RMB exchange rate has retreated. The textile and garment industry is expected to usher in an inflection point. Its quota has drawn wide attention. At the same time, the international labor standards have drawn increasing attention from its birth to its development all over the world. Some countries have included relevant labor standards in their free trade agreements, either for the protection of the domestic textile and clothing industry or for their emphasis on human rights provisions. Based on the data from 2001 to 2015, we use the sequence autoregressive model, the BG test and the Ramsey RESET Test to examine the influence of the labor standards on the textile exports in China. In the end, we draw conclusions.
