What is labour intensity?
Labor intensive refers to the combinations of factor inputs for a firm. If a firm produces a good that is labor intensive it means that the number of units of labor is high relative to the number units of capital (or whatever other factor of production there is). For example, education and teaching is very labor intensive, as the teaching field needs a lot of people to educate and handle the administration of education. It is also not likely that the teaching sector will not shift to ever be capital intensive. Any firm that produces a good that is intensive in any factor is vulnerable to shocks or changes in the cost of that factor. If the price of labor increases it will greatly hinder the ability the firm's ability to produce that good.
