Investments into an industry or project can produce temporary and long-term employment.
A direct job is employment created to fulfill the demand for a product or service.
Employment created by the additional personal spending (e.g., eating at a restaurant) by both direct and indirect workers is classified as an induced job.
Investments in some projects or industries are more efficient at producing direct and indirect jobs.
[6] A special economic zone produces fewer indirect jobs if it is isolated from the country's main economy, and more if it is well integrated.
