NDRC: 92 Million Labor To Digest &Nbsp; Brewing New Employment Policy For College Students

Recently, the division of employment and income distribution of the national development and Reform Commission completed the "first quarter 2011 employment situation analysis and suggestion report" (hereinafter referred to as the "report").

Deng Haibin, director of the employment and income distribution division of the NDRC, said that the current report has been submitted to the State Council as a policy proposal.

The report pointed out that the employment situation started well in the first quarter, but the total pressure and structural contradictions still existed. The supply of urban labor exceeds 2 million people, and 90 million people in the rural areas needed to pfer jobs. The report recommended that according to the current employment situation, we should accelerate the allocation of 42 billion 300 million yuan of employment special funds in 2011.

According to the report, 6 million 600 thousand college graduates enter the job market this year.

According to an official responsible for employment promotion, at present, the Ministry of human resources, the Ministry of finance, the national development and Reform Commission and other departments are launching a new policy to promote college students' employment.

One of the most striking moves is that the state loan to college students is expected to increase from 50 thousand to 100 thousand.

The employment special fund system needs to be improved.

The report pointed out that the employment situation in the first quarter was "steady and good" at the beginning of the employment situation, showing a steady increase in urban employment, an increase higher than that of the same period last year.

Statistics show that in 1-3 months, 3 million 30 thousand new jobs in cities and towns nationwide were completed, and 34% of the annual target (9 million people) were completed, an increase of 140 thousand over the same period last year.

The unemployed in cities and towns reemployed 1 million 330 thousand people, completing 27% of the annual tasks (5 million people).

Employment difficulties for 410 thousand people, completed 41% of the annual task, an increase of 10 thousand over the same period last year.

After the Spring Festival, the number of rural labor force has increased rapidly. By the middle of March, the employment gap in the "Yangtze River Delta" and "Pearl River Delta" areas has decreased significantly.

But we must not neglect that the total employment pressure and structural contradictions coexist, and the overall employment situation is still very grim.

The total pressure is reflected in the annual new urban employment opportunities (including supplemental natural attrition) generally around 12 million, and this year the number of new urban labor market will exceed 14 million, with a supply exceeding 2 million.

In rural areas, at least 90 million of the surplus agricultural labor force needs to pfer jobs to towns and non-agricultural industries.

About 8 million of the rural labor force will be pferred to employment this year, and the employment situation is still grim.

The structural contradiction of employment is reflected in the imbalance of the vocational skills and quality of labor supply and demand, the uneven distribution of areas, and the large difference in seasonal labor.

In addition, due to the recent serious natural disasters and political turmoil in some parts of the world, it also has a negative impact on China's employment situation.

Japan's earthquake and tsunami disaster caused a large number of enterprises such as electronics, machinery and automobile to stop production, which seriously affected the import and production of the core components of many related enterprises in China, and had a negative impact on the employment of related enterprises.

Political instability in Libya and other countries in North Africa has seriously affected China's foreign contracted projects.

In the 1-2 month of this year, the amount of non new contracts signed in our country was 3 billion 470 million US dollars, a decrease of 53.2% over the same period last year.

By the end of 2, the number of non labor workers in China has decreased by 28 thousand compared with the same period last year.

According to the report, according to the current employment situation, we will accelerate the allocation of 42 billion 300 million yuan of employment special funds in 2011.

The NDRC official explained that the employment special funds were declared by the local people's and social organizations according to the needs of local employment projects, and approved by the Ministry of Finance and social affairs after the approval of the Ministry of social and economic affairs. The Ministry of Finance issued the review to the local authorities after the review of the Ministry of finance.

The scope of employment specific funds is employment subsidy, vocational training subsidy, social insurance subsidy, public welfare post subsidy, vocational skill appraisal subsidy, specific employment policy subsidy, small loan guarantee fund and small guarantee loan discount, and supporting public employment services.

However, due to the fact that the employment items themselves do not meet the requirements of application, and the threshold of capital application is relatively high and the scope is narrow, there is a surplus of special funds for employment every year, which has been deposited until next year, and has not fully played the role of funds.

Deng Haibin disclosed that at present, the NDRC is in consultation with the Ministry of finance, improving the use of special funds for financial employment, improving the efficiency of capital use, and tending to apply for state-owned and large collective enterprises in Bankruptcy Reform, eliminating backward production capacity, resource exhausted areas, reservoir areas, and protection of migrant workers, land expropriated farmers and other employment difficulties.

Venture loans increased to 100 thousand

The report points out that the pressure on employment of college graduates will further increase this year.

In the second half of 2011, there will be 6 million 600 thousand ordinary people.

Deng Haibin, director of the employment and income distribution division of the NDRC's employment and Income Distribution Division, said that the Ministry of education is currently negotiating with the Ministry of education, hoping to increase the discipline of higher education enrolment and the adjustment of professional structure to improve the adaptation of higher education training mode.

According to the officials responsible for employment promotion, the Ministry of human resources, the Ministry of finance, the NDRC and other departments are launching a new policy to promote the employment of university graduates.

"At present, it has basically taken shape."

"The general principle is to solve problems through the market and focus on institutional reform."

He said that the new deal includes many aspects, one is to encourage college students to go to grass-roots employment, and the existing grass-roots employment plans mostly focus on supporting agriculture, supporting teaching and supporting doctors. All of them belong to the traditional institutions. If there is a fixed quota, there are institutional obstacles.

In order to solve this problem, the ministries and commissions are studying ways of making multiple preparations at the grass-roots level, such as turnover preparation, temporary preparation, reserve preparation and formal compilation, so as to get through the system export of basic employment college students, expand the scale of students at the grass-roots level of employment, and increase their finances accordingly.

The official disclosed that the state loan volume for college students is expected to increase from 50 thousand to 100 thousand, and the government will pay interest according to 100 thousand.

"If it's a partnership and an organization to start an undertaking, one person will give 100 thousand in principle."

The standard of living allowance for trainee students is expected to be reasonably determined based on prices and local economic conditions.

Ge Yuhao, an associate researcher at the China Employment Research Institute, points out that the success rate of College Students' entrepreneurship is only 2% to 3%.

He suggested that our government should achieve the policy goal of promoting the employment of university graduates. Besides providing financial support for college students' entrepreneurship, we should also pay attention to supporting the successful experience of supporting young entrepreneurs in Australia and Hongkong, China.

For example, we should set up a mentoring mechanism for entrepreneurs. For young entrepreneurs who have access to national interest free loans, the state will provide them with an entrepreneurial mentor, closely follow up guidance for projects, and help young entrepreneurs to establish their own social networks, so as to provide communication platform for them to share and exchange information.
