The Shortage Of Workers In The Pearl River Delta Region Of Hunan And Jiangxi Provinces Is Worsening.

Guangdong has always been the largest gathering place for migrant workers in mainland China. Recently, because the inland provinces began to crack the economy, not only did migrant workers return to the tide obviously, but even more, neighboring Jiangxi and Hunan's foreign-funded enterprises were affected by the lack of local labor, and they returned to Guangdong to dig corners, which made the situation of shortage of workers in the three corners of the Pearl worse.

"Taiwanese businessmen build agricultural products wholesale markets in Tianjin because of geopolitical relations, they used to be foreign-funded enterprises in the Pearl River Delta to recruit workers in Hunan and southern Jiangxi. But now, in turn, many of the labor-intensive foreign-funded enterprises are going to set up factories in the local area, and the children of Hunan and Jiangxi who still work in Guangdong have become the best targets for digging corners.

According to the Taiwan industrial and commercial times, according to Wu Zhenchang, chairman of Chuangxin shoes industry, the monthly salary of most grassroots employees in Guangzhou, including the social security expenditure, is about 1600 yuan (the same below). There is still a gap between the average salary of 800 to 1000 yuan in southern Jiangxi and Southern Hunan.

However, it is still a small incentive for those who want to go home, or those whose parents are old at home.

In particular, many export-oriented enterprises are moving inland, resulting in an increase in job opportunities, resulting in the shortage of workers in the 2 provinces of Hunan and Jiangxi, which are closest to Guangdong.

As a result of this wave of Taiwanese enterprises set up factories in Hunan and Jiangxi, at the very beginning, most of them were mainly local laborers, and factories in these cities, whether local governments or Taiwan funded enterprises, were lack of experience in raising migrant workers in the field. Under the circumstances of no help, the employees who had worked in Guangdong were encouraged to return to the old villagers in the Pearl River Delta region.

Wu Zhenchang, who has visited the Hunan and Jiangxi provinces many times, thinks that the population of the inland cities is small and mainly local laborers. Generally, the labor-intensive enterprises go to set up factories. The scale of each factory can only maintain about 2000 people.

This phenomenon will cause enterprises to set up factories in their strongholds too dispersed, and then there will be difficulties in supporting and managing them.

In addition, influenced by the influx of employees in inland provinces, the direction of recruitment of Taiwanese companies in Guangdong has also changed dramatically, and the situation of local employees has changed.

In the case of Chuang Xin, there were fewer than 100 employees in Panyu in 15 thousand employees 10 years ago, but now there are more than 2000 local employees.

Wu Zhenchang believes that it is mainly in today's traditional industries that wage levels have risen to the acceptable level of local people, which will result in a significant increase in the number of local employees in Panyu.

In addition to the locals in Guangzhou, other parts of Guangdong, especially those in North Guangdong and western Guangdong, have also been growing rapidly, filling the shortage of jobs in part of their return to employment.

Now, due to the increasingly serious shortage of workers in Hunan and Jiangxi provinces, wages in some inland cities have increased rapidly to 1000 yuan in the past 1 years.

At present, there are basically no shortage of industrial land in the inland cities adjacent to Guangdong. However, the phenomenon of lack of work has attracted the need to find labour in other provinces. Local Taiwanese businessmen believe that this phenomenon of labor shortage is coming early, which will inevitably affect the future investment in the interior.
