By the study, it is found that there exists the labor cost stickiness in Chinese listed companies, and the degrees of labor cost stickiness have differences in the enterprises with different equity natures, and the labor cost stickiness of state-owned enterprises is significantly stronger than that of private enterprises. After the further introduction of capital intensity, it is found that the higher the degree of capital intensity is, the stronger the labor cost stickiness of enterprises is, and this phenomenon is more obvious in the state-owned enterprises.
