Enterprises Are Worried About "Labor Shortage" &Nbsp; Workers Are Looking For Jobs.

With the end of the Spring Festival holiday (from February 2nd to 8th), enterprises in the Pearl River Delta region have started their new year.

"1600 yuan is too low, at least 1800 yuan, can not work overtime too late."

Lu Minhua, a more than 30 year old woman worker in Hunan, asked for treatment in Guangzhou Xinke Industrial Park.

She said she would rather not work if there was no suitable income and working environment.

Compared with the "calm" of job seekers, many enterprises

The staff of the enterprise listed their "can" conditions: wages at least 1600 yuan, on time distribution, no overtime work day, year-end bonus and full attendance award, monthly guarantee of 3 days' leave, work full 3 years, maternity leave factory subsidies.

Even so, he admits that recruitment is far more difficult than last year.

"Starting from No. 7, we are preparing to recruit 40 people.

But only 5 people left contact now. "

Yongchuang director said helplessly.

At the beginning of the new year in 2011, Shanghai, Jilin, Shandong, Shaanxi and other provinces and cities invariably released the signal of raising the minimum wage standard, with an increase of around 10%.

Experts said that raising wages would help to regulate the structure of income distribution and protect the rights and interests of workers.

The Guangdong Provincial Department of human resources and social security has announced that the minimum wage standard for Guangdong workers will increase by 18.6% on average from March 1st, and Guangzhou's standard will increase to 1300 yuan per month, the highest in the country.

Some workers indicated that the minimum wage standards were sharply raised everywhere, and they were asked to improve their treatment.

In addition, the rising price pressure has made many wage earners expect to rise.

On the other hand, with the rising demand for quality of life and the rising cost of living in China, even if the enterprises take the initiative to raise salaries, it is still difficult to meet the expectations of employees.

Zhang Baoying, the director of the Guangzhou human resources market, told Xinhua News Agency 8 days that the current Guangzhou regional enterprise multiplying rate is about 1.36:1, that is, each job seeker has 1.36 vacancies.

There are more jobs than workers, and the structural shortage of labour still exists.

The agency's survey of post employment recruitment intentions of 343 enterprises in Guangzhou revealed that more than 80% of the enterprises were recruited after the holiday, and the recruitment rate was about 10% of the total staff. After a month, the Guangzhou labor force shortfall was expected to reach 150 thousand.

Zhang Baoying said that in the industry, the traditional labor intensive industries such as toys, electronics and textiles are facing the biggest gap.

In terms of personnel structure, more manpower gaps are reflected in skilled workers and skilled workers.

It is worth noticing that under the situation of expanding labor gap, some enterprises, in order to recruit workers as soon as possible or prevent the loss of workers, resort to illegal means such as subcontracting recruitment, malicious wages and so on, which seriously infringe upon the rights and interests of workers.

On the 10 day after the festival in Guangzhou, Guangzhou Yongfeng Decoration Engineering Co., Ltd. asked Zhou Xu, a Sichuan migrant worker who applied for welders, to apply for a welcoming job for more than a dozen people after the application, and the salary will be interviewed according to the progress of the project.

This made Zhou Xu, who worked as a welder for 16 years, somewhat surprised.

"I used to be a welder.

For the first time, people who want to hire a new generation may be recruiting difficulties for the current enterprises, so they will put the blame on the candidates.

According to Chen Mufeng, deputy director of the Jiangmen high tech Industrial Zone police station, because of the difficulty of recruiting workers, many employers have delegated the recruitment task to the foreman, subcontracting part of the project to the foreman, and giving the foreman certain interests, so that the foreman can recruit himself by way of "people with people".

"There is often a lack of contract agreement between the foreman and the enterprise, so it is difficult to define whether it is a subcontracting relationship protected by law."

Chen Mufeng said.

It is also a way for many enterprises to "stay in a disguised form" to pay part of their wages a year ago.

Zhou Xu told reporters that his former employer defaulted on his salary of more than 5000 yuan and has not yet been resolved.

According to Du Minghan, the leader of the Labor Supervision Detachment of the Foshan Municipal Bureau of human resources and social security, before the Spring Festival, Foshan received many complaints from migrant workers. Some business operators tried to prevent them from leaving the enterprise, violating the labor contract, and deliberately withholding part of the wages before the new year.

Experts point out that "deliberate wage arrears" is precisely the lack of confidence in the operation and management of enterprises.

Many labor-intensive enterprises have weak foundation, weak foundation and weak ability to resist risks. They are afraid of the prospect of recruitment. In fact, they lose the sense of belonging because they are "outweigh the gains".

Zhang Chewei, deputy director of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, pointed out that regardless of salary increase or wage arrears, if we always hold the attitude of "headache and pain", it will not help solve the problem fundamentally.

The Pearl River Delta enterprises still have a long way to go in perfecting the protection mechanism of laborers' rights and interests and speeding up the pformation of the mode of economic development.
