An Express Or A Potentially Dangerous Group Of "Overwork"

Recently, the State Post Office issued the 2016 China Express development index report.

The report shows that in 2016, the average daily handling capacity of China's express delivery reached 85 million 710 thousand, with a maximum daily processing capacity exceeding 250 million, with an average daily service of more than 170 million.

Experts say that express workers who work hard, have fast turnover and have low base salary, seem to be "fighting time" and "speed up". In fact, they are "fighting for life". Couriers engage in high-risk, high-intensity and high load "three high" industries, which are hidden behind the risk of sudden death.

Last November 20th, a Hunan courier employee died in Zhuzhou's Hetai street. When he died, he sat on the ground telling passers-by that he was tired.

It is understood that the courier came out early every day and worked nearly 16 hours a day.

According to a survey, there are about 2000000 employees in express delivery in China, of whom more than 80% are migrant workers. The proportion of migrant workers in the first line couriers is as high as 90%.

"Many couriers have a low level of culture and do not know how to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests by law.

At the same time, the express industry management is very extensive, basically there is no job training, not only low labor contract signing rate, social security benefits are low, there is also a lack of necessary industrial injury insurance.

In the pay assessment, most of the couriers take the basic salary plus royalty system, the base salary is very small, and want to increase income can only increase labor intensity and working hours.

University of International Business and Economics law school professor Su Haopeng pointed out.

In this regard, Su Peng suggested that more efforts should be made to publicize rights, regularly carry out lectures on legal knowledge, standardize management of enterprise personnel, conduct regular training on safety production posts, make training records well, and improve staff's self-protection awareness and safety and health work concept.

"At the same time, we should study and formulate relevant policies and learn advanced.

We should guide enterprises to reform the backward employment system, provide a humane working environment, raise wages and benefits, pay attention to controlling the labor intensity of employees, set the upper limit of labor time for employees, and force employees to take a vacation once they reach the warning line.

Su Peng said.

At present, there are 3 modes of operation for express delivery companies: direct operation, franchise and cooperation. According to the analysis of the industry, the employees' five risk and one gold payment rate is low in the joining and cooperation mode, and the proportion of employees who did not pay five risks and one gold once reached 90%.

"At present, there are only a few courier companies in the express delivery industry who sign contracts directly with enterprises, and pay five risks and one gold in full, in full and in full. But more courier companies fail to pay five risks and one gold for their employees because of the existence of vicious price competition, which is unfavorable for the development of the express company and the whole society."

Liu Qiangdong, founder and CEO of Jingdong group, spoke of the short board of the express industry at the forty-sixth biweekly consultative meeting of the CPPCC National Committee.

In this regard, Su Peng pointed out that

The large turnover rate and low labor contract signing rate are due to the fact that most express companies are unwilling to buy insurance and sign contracts for couriers to save money and avoid risks.

"The lack of social security is actually increasing the risk of employment, and it is difficult for couriers to enjoy the statutory benefits such as social security and medical insurance. Overtime, high and low temperature allowances, haze subsidies, and cold protection equipment are also difficult to implement."

Su pointed out that due to the lack of labor contracts and work-related injury insurance, it is difficult to identify work-related injuries, and its legitimate rights and interests are difficult to maintain.

In the opinion of Su Bo Peng, the protection of the labor rights and interests of the courier should start with the system and improve relevant laws and regulations.

"It is suggested that the rights and interests of express employees should be safelined into the rule of law, and a perfect reward and punishment mechanism should be established. Enterprises and employees should be standardized to sign labor contracts according to law, so that employees can be handled as much as possible.

We should reduce the risk of accidents and ensure the legitimate rights and interests of employees.

Su Peng said.

"Combine social insurance with commercial insurance and use special commercial insurance to cover the whole situation.

We will guide Business insurance company to carry out related special insurance businesses, provide policy support for the establishment of a safeguard mechanism for the rights and interests of couriers, and formulate corresponding penalties to refine the contents, so as to provide a strong basis for follow-up implementation.
