Xinhua Shenzhen, February 23, after a shortage of workers in Shenzhen for more than 800,000, especially worker difficult to recruit the situation, the reporter recently visited some enterprises, professional agencies and government related departments, found that led to the Shenzhen "labor shortage" reasons are mainly the following: first, the economic recovery, business orders increased. The reporter learned from the Foxconn company, the company after the employment gap of about 50,000 people, in order to ease the "labor shortage", the company began to recruit from the junior year, and adopted the "staff recommended the villagers" reward system.  As of 22nd, the company recruited more than 10,000 people on site.  Foxconn company officials told reporters that the employment gap is one of the important reasons is the economic recovery, business orders increased. The reporter learned that Foxconn companies are facing the situation in Shenzhen enterprises are very common. In the second half of 2008, affected by the international financial crisis, Shenzhen Many enterprises, especially export-oriented enterprises due to the sudden decline in orders, have to lay off or "shutdown holiday."  Once the economy improves, once the order is taken, skilled workers cannot be found temporarily;  Second, the employment space in the Midwest is increasing. The reporter learned that in recent years, including Shenzhen, the Pearl River Delta region for industrial Restructuring, upgrading, many labor-intensive enterprises to the underdeveloped areas of the transfer. The international financial crisis has accelerated the industrial upgrading, making the manufacturing and service industry in the Midwest of China develop rapidly. At the same time, the country's agricultural policies intensified, rural labor out of employment will be reduced.  In addition, along with the national economy development, the peasant laborer goes out to work has more destinations.  These reasons directly lead to a reduction in the number of job seekers, Shenzhen the human Resources and Social Security Bureau statistics show that the number of job seekers has been down since last year, the end of last year compared to the beginning of the entry of the number of job seekers dropped by 33.7%.  Third, the remuneration package in Shenzhen lacks competitiveness. Reporter learned that the current Shenzhen worker monthly salary of 900 to 1500 yuan, but in the labor output in Sichuan Province, worker monthly wages have reached about 1000 yuan, a large number of migrant workers choose the nearest career choice. A migrant worker from Chongqing told reporters that many of his relatives and friends have chosen to stay in their hometown to work, "if in Chongqing to work in the electronics factory, one months not to eat and live can get 1800 yuan, and close to home, the attractiveness of Shenzhen wages is not much higher than the mainland, less attractive."  "Four, the new generation of migrant workers unwilling to do worker." "I won't do worker," he said. "A lot of" generation "," the "new generations of migrant workers said so.  Flextronics power Supply (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. recruitment department Miss Wu told reporters that the new generation of migrant workers pay more attention to quality of life, freedom, development opportunities, and so on, most are unwilling to do the worker on the line. Statistics show that in the four quarter of last year, Shenzhen labor market 16-24-year-old job seekers accounted for 51.53% of the total job seekers. Compared with the first generation of peasant workers, the new generation peasant workers have received better education and higher academic qualifications.The pressure is far from the parents, and their view of career change has changed a lot.  Five, "structural" lack of work can not be ignored.  Shenzhen Municipal Bureau of Human Resources and social security officials said that Shenzhen after the "labor shortage" to what extent, but also to see the recent period of time, especially after the Lantern Festival peasant workers to the deep situation, the recent Shenzhen will be held free job fairs, especially for enterprises in the scarce types of job fairs to ease the "labor shortage."  Wang Hongli, vice minister of the Production and protection Department of Shenzhen Federation of Trade Unions, believes that with the approaching of the elderly society, the total labor supply will gradually decline in the future, enterprises must upgrade the industry, improve production efficiency, improve the employment environment and so on to deal with. Wang Hongli pointed out that although the current lack of workers is mainly the economic recovery, orders surge caused by the "compensatory" shortage of workers, but with the industrial restructuring and industrial upgrading in Shenzhen, "structural" phenomenon can not be neglected.
