Where Are The Workers In The Textile Industry "Labor Shortage"?

< p > with the disappearance of China's demographic dividend, recruitment and employment are becoming more and more puzzled by a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/" target= "_blank" > textile < /a > a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/" target= "href=" > clothing enterprises. Take Changzhou, Jiangsu, which is one of the pillar industries of textile and garment industry as an example. Although 48 Enterprises offered 1300 jobs at the special recruitment meeting, only more than 130 of the 1000 job seekers in the field initially reached their intention to work. < /p >
< p > according to China Economic Weekly, there is no statistical data on how many employees are lacking in the textile and garment industry, but the boss of the processing enterprises is almost no pain for foreman, and the pain law is not the same. Liu Jiafa, President of the Yiwu glove industry association, said that in Yiwu, enterprises not only promised to raise salaries in the coming year, but also encouraged the old staff to bring new workers back to the factory with bonus, but every year, some of the field workers returned home after the Spring Festival. < /p >
At the same time, Guangzhou Chuangxing Garment Group is one of the largest denim leisure clothing manufacturers in the country. Li En, executive vice president of the group, said that there were some old employees who lost in Chuangxing this year, but the new employees didn't follow up. They were unable to recruit people. He was worried that if he went on like this, the employment gap would be bigger and bigger in the next 35 years, when the development of enterprises would be severely restricted. < /p >
< p > in addition, Yang Shibin, Deputy Secretary General of China Textile Industry Federation, said that the situation of "employment difficulty" in the whole industrial chain is not quite the same. < /p >
< p > in the upper reaches of the textile industry, the demand for skilled workers is relatively large in general, while in the downstream garment processing industry, the wage cost of the workers is rising faster because the equipment substitution of the garment enterprises is not so strong, and the labor productivity is not as fast as that of the upstream, and the contradiction between the wages of workers and the rise of enterprise benefits is more prominent. < /p >
< p > Li also revealed that the average monthly salary of Chuangxing group's basic employees is 4000 yuan, and there is an increase every year. The monthly salary of workers who work for more than 5 years is basically six thousand or seven thousand yuan, and the monthly salary of some technicians is tens of thousands, which is actually higher than that in some office buildings. Yang Shibin introduced this year textile and garment enterprises wage increase in 5%~10%. But such treatment and gains do not seem to appeal to job seekers. < /p >
< p >, where did the workers go? Xu Li (a pseudonym), 22 years old, home in Cangzhou, Hebei, worked for two years in a knitting mill in Changshu, Jiangsu, but this year she did not want to go again: "too far away from home, always looking at machines, working too monotonously, making no money, and coming back to find a similar job is very easy." Staying in his hometown like Xu Li is an important reason for the lack of work in many southeastern coastal provinces. < /p >
< p > to this, Yang Shibin said that along with the pace of industrial transfer in the past few years, some underdeveloped areas in the central provinces or developed provinces have undertaken the textile and garment industry transferred from developed regions, especially in the central provinces of human resources export, and workers return to their hometown to re stabilize employment, resulting in the shortage of labor in textile and garment enterprises in developed areas. < /p >
< p > on the other hand, no new person is willing to enter this a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > industry < /a >, which will leave behind worries for the subsequent development. Li En said this is due to the low status of the industry. Not just the textile and garment industry, but also in the entire manufacturing sector. < /p >
< p > he thinks this is related to the direction of public opinion. The social concept of "first class talents to do finance, second rate talents to engage in real estate, and three streams of talents to do business" is a great harm to the people who do business. The industry sense of pride is getting lower and lower. People will not enter this industry. After leaving campus, they would rather do real estate sales than be skilled workers in textile mills. < /p >
< p > we need to point out that recruitment is difficult and wage cost is rising. The difficulty of employment in textile and garment industry is actually a microcosm of the whole manufacturing industry. < /p >
< p > Zhang Yansheng, Secretary General of the academic committee of the national development and Reform Commission, said the survey showed that in the 10 years from 1995 to 2005, the average wage of migrant workers in the Pearl River Delta region increased by only a few dozen yuan, which ended after the arrival of Lewis's turning point in 2005. The textile industry has undergone adjustment, impact and concussion in the past 9 years. < /p >
Yao Jingyuan, the famous economist and former chief economist of the National Bureau of statistics, said that the absolute number of labor force in China has been reduced for two consecutive years. Last year, the number of labor force in the whole country decreased by 2 million 330 thousand. In 2010, the average monthly wage of migrant workers in China was 1690 yuan, and 2609 yuan was reached last year. < /p >
< p > Yang Shibin believes that enterprises can solve their employment problems from two aspects: first, college students have become new employment forces, and China has 10 million new jobs every year. In 2013, nearly 7 million university graduates have been recruited. To attract some of these people to the industry, apart from providing decent remuneration, there should be a working environment that can be incorporated into their life planning. On the other hand, more efforts should be put on stabilizing existing employees. Some enterprises will recruit new workers every time they encounter problems, but new recruits need constant training, and employees' feelings for enterprises should also be re established. It is better to retain the existing a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_f.asp" > employees < /a >. < /p >
