Reporter King Xiaoming, Cong, Chen Jian, Hou Dawei, Jiangyi, Cao Yan Chengdu, 41-year-old peasant worker Huang Bin in Sichuan province wearing a black leather jacket, a neat face. With a hand in carpentry, he is currently working part-time on a local construction site, earning an average of five thousand or six thousand yuan a month. Huang Bin said: "I am very satisfied with my income, I intend to work in the future, do not go out." "Western migrant workers are employed locally, which is a message that many eastern companies do not want to hear." Recently, the face of a new round of "labor shortage", the migrant workers "scramble" smoke.  "Economic reference newspaper" reporter in the western Labor export provinces in Sichuan province to interview, to explore the "scramble" of migrant workers brought about by new problems.  The labor market is facing disorder. Song Su, a shoe factory owner told reporters that some of the county labor-intensive enterprises have begun to "poach", digging the object is ordinary migrant workers. Another reason for Huang Bin's reluctance to go out for a migrant is based on pension considerations. He said: "I bought a new farm insurance in Renshou County, after 60 years old, every month has the endowment money to take." If I go out for a job, I can't afford to buy a new farm insurance. I'm not going to work outside.  "It sounds good news to local employers and the Labor Department," he said. Just a few years ago, the Renshou County Labor Department was still worrying about helping migrant workers find jobs, but now companies are actively seeking to recruit. After the Spring Festival this year, some local governments in Sichuan province, in order to help attract investment enterprises recruitment, have hired intermediaries in Chengdu railway station to intercept the peasant workers in Sichuan.  According to their introduction, some large enterprises in the investment, will be "government to help hire" as a precondition for investment in the construction plant.  In the face of the "river closure" operation in the western provinces and cities, some traditional labor importation in the east has also carried out the "scramble" under the local government departments, and some eastern cities have organized hundreds of long-distance buses to "take back" the peasant workers in the Midwest labor force province.  Some authorities and experts worry that, due to the "difficult to recruit" expected to increase the "scramble for migrant workers" is increasingly fierce, and the market mechanism should be normal regulation, configuration of the labor market is "difficult to recruit" under the pressure of gradual disorder. Jintang County is a well-known labor export in Sichuan province, the local large number of migrant workers working in Dongguan for many years.  "Economic reference newspaper" reporter in Jintang County interview learned that in order to ease local employment pressure, before the Spring Festival this year, the local authorities formed a delegation to Dongguan, Guangdong, the county workers to carry out the condolences, and in the local media published advertising, publicity of the county's industrial development, call the county migrant workers return to work. The "scramble" is manifested not only between the east and the West but also between enterprises, and the labour market is facing a test of disorder. In Jintang County interview, a shoe factory boss Song Su told reporters that some labor-intensive enterprises in the county has begun to "poach", digging the object is ordinary migrant workers.  As Jintang County's CPPCC member and chairman of the Footwear Association, he was prepared to ask the county magistrate to intervene. Guo, deputy Dean of Sichuan Academy of Social Sciences, who has long been concerned about peasant workerssaid that the labour market in the final analysis is a market economy, should be allocated by the market resources, through the "recruitment difficult", "shortage of migrant workers," such market signals, conducive to the redistribution of industry and upgrading, local governments should actively purify the market environment, standardize market behavior, and should not be surprised, or even "The era of cheap labor has become the past" "last year with children, we decided to return to Sichuan, after all, this is our root, we do not want to let children in the future is neither Sichuan, nor Cantonese." At present, the gap between wage level and eastern coastal area is shrinking, which has become an important factor affecting the flow of migrant workers in the Western Labor export area.  In the Sichuan peasant workers interviewed by the economic reference newspaper, most of the wage expectations for this year are about 2000 yuan, up more than 300 yuan in previous years. Meishan Renshou County of Sichuan Province and Labor export counties, according to the Labor Department understand that at present, Renshou County's return to the Chinese New Year's migrant workers, more than 10,000 migrant workers are unwilling to go to the eastern region to work this year. Renshou County Labor Bureau director Liu said: "Wages is a problem, these years, the wages of Dongguan is not comparable to the wages of Chengdu, the overall low 3,500 yuan." The era of cheap labor in China has become the past. In addition to wages, the "family" and "sense of belonging" in the past in the migrant workers often overlooked factors, is increasingly becoming migrant workers to choose employment, or even choose the lifestyle determinants. Reporters in the interview, more than once heard that migrant workers in order to better care for children and the elderly, and even willing to give up the past in the accumulation of foreign workers in the seniority and high pay, instead to stay in local employment.  In this sense, peasant workers are returning from the "economic Man" to the true nature of their "social people". In the Renshou County village, "Economic reference newspaper" reporter saw in Shenzhen for 12 years of villagers Huang Hua. He told reporters: "Although in Shenzhen one months to earn more than 4,000 yuan, but not in the elderly parents to filial piety, I feel very guilty." Not at home for a long time, the home has collapsed. This time back to cover the house, take good care of their parents, even if the wages are less it does not matter. "Yang Lunya The couple is Sichuan Jianyang people, they repeatedly to the reporter stressed" sense of belonging ":" in Dongguan, Shenzhen Electronics factory played so many years of work, but also used to the Guangdong side of life, but we always feel that they can not become the locals, the heart is floating. Last year with children, we decided to go back to Sichuan, after all, this is our root, we do not want to let children in the future is neither Sichuan, nor Cantonese.  "To lay the foundation for future development" more than 80% of respondents highlighted the impact of "family, health and happiness" on their own well-being, and most people no longer recognize and accept their parents ' low income, high intensity and poor working environment. "Economic reference newspaper" reporter survey found that after 30 years of development of rural labor transfer output, the current generation of migrant workers occupy the total number of workers in half. NumberThe new generation accounted for more than half of the 22.46 million workers in Sichuan province in 2010, according to the survey. The new generation of migrant workers in the protection of labor rights and interests have more specific requirements. 23-Year-old Sichuan Yibin boy Lin Tao told reporters from the coast back to Sichuan after the not adapt: "Here, although many jobs, but compared with the east, many enterprises in the West are not standardized, the workers to buy insurance does not buy, and some bosses have to seize the worker's identity card." "Compared with their parents, the new generation of migrant workers on their own value, quality of life requirements more modern." The 22-year-old Meishan town peasant worker Liang Yide told reporters: "I attended the optical fiber installation training in the province now one months can get 1800 dollars." For me to eat is not a problem, home is no burden, but the work must be able to lay the foundation for future development.  "In a survey of more than 2,500 new generation migrant workers who were born 1980 years later, the Sichuan Academy of Social Sciences more than 80% of respondents highlighted the impact of" family, health and happiness "on their own well-being, and most people no longer recognize and accept their parents ' low income, high intensity and poor working environment. "My standard is at least 2000 yuan a month." Some recruiters offer high wages, but work more than 10 hours a day and work overtime on weekends. I don't think it's strange that these companies can't recruit workers.  Lin Tao said. Do not have the professional skills of the enterprise competing for the object of the town mayor He Zhihui said: "Now many East Coast enterprises to our recruitment, the requirements are under the age of 35 years of general workers." They do not have the technology, because they are engaged in simple labor. "In the past, migrant workers, who lacked vocational skills, often struggled to find employment in the labour market."  However, the reporter found that the current round of "labor shortage" of a prominent feature is that low value-added ordinary jobs generally exist "difficult to recruit", do not have professional skills of migrant workers instead become the object of competition. Industry insiders pointed out that, although the industrial transfer is the trend, but at present, the eastern coastal enterprises low-end labor-intensive industrial model is still continuing, while the western region with the coastal industry transfer, a new round of western development and rapid economic development, infrastructure construction has brought a large number of low-end employment needs.  This has caused the eastern and western regions to have a "scramble" for general workers, and this contention will become normal in the current and future periods. The decrease in the new labor force is one reason for the general workers shortage. Sichuan Province Labor service development and migrant workers work Office deputy director Tsao told reporters: "Sichuan rural labor force currently has 38 million people, 2010 transfer output 22.46 million, the level of labor output has belonged to the high running." In the rural stock labor force, the ability to transfer and output the ' tapping potential ' space has been very few. In recent years, Sichuan's new rural labor force of 500,000 to 600,000 per annum, although the labor supply overall growth trend, but the decline in growth is already very obvious. "For the general workers shortage of the current situation, the Labor enterprises haveIncreased pay levels. Located in Chengdu, near the third Ring road, the Jinjiang human resources market, has always been the employment of rural migrant workers in Sichuan "vane."  According to the statistics of this market, from the second half of 2010 to now, due to the persistence of employment gap, waiters, security, cleaning, general workers, such as low technology, low knowledge requirements of the type of work, the general wage level of 200 yuan to 300 yuan. Chengdu Jintang County is a county in Sichuan province to undertake the eastern industry transfer, and the local industry, such as footwear and garments, is absorbing more and more local migrant workers. Jintang County Employment Bureau Director Liang told reporters: "The county 2010 years of employment than 2009 increase of more than 5,000, the corresponding number of migrant workers, is 2000 to 4000 people per year decline in speed." This year Jintang also appeared the phenomenon of general workers lack. "The East-west region competes for low-end labor at the same time, indicating that the industrial upgrading of China's east coast is far from complete." Guo said that in normal years, the company's production workers relatively stable, and after the financial crisis, coastal and mainland-related enterprises have been "large area layoffs", after the economic situation rebounded, there appeared a "large area of recruitment."  And this large area layoffs and recruitment has the characteristics of sudden and scale, because a large number of jobs and many job seekers need a certain period of time, this to labor-intensive industries to form a huge impact and test. Huang Jie, Director of human resources marketing at Jinjiang, said the "recruitment difficulties" highlighted the reliability and solidity of the strong demand for labour, especially the general workforce, and that "because these labor-intensive enterprises are greatly affected by the international economic situation, the demand will shrink sharply once the external economic form changes." Do not forget that in the last two years we were still worried about how to deal with ' migrant workers returning to the tide '. "Sky-high blue collar" is pushing the Enterprise Overseas reporter Heffengrun report from tens of thousands of yuan monthly salary mahogany furniture technical worker, to 4000 yuan/month's senior month sister-in-law, from 8000 yuan "Hanlaobaoshou" the sales representative, to tens of thousands of Yuan's sound tune teacher ... After the Spring Festival, encounter "labor shortage" in many places, frequently appear "sky-high blue-collar" recruitment ads.  "Economic reference newspaper" reporter in-depth interview, many experts and scholars that: "Sky-high blue collar" appearance, highlighting the economic restructuring process, labor value is increasingly prominent, but to truly meet the needs of enterprises, to achieve a dual sense of "mutual benefit and common win", but also need a lot of joint efforts. The first in the recruitment notices to play "sky-high blue Collar" banner is Fujian red Furniture company, in the company's website, reporters see such a recruitment notice: Hit the embryo General workers 540 yuan/day, five pieces of sawing 540 yuan/day, milling machine, Taiwan router general work 480 yuan/day, the selection of materials, broken materials, cutting plate general workers 430 yuan/day, maintenance,  320 yuan/day for filling material ... Chief Engineer Zhang Yaojien told reporters that according to this calculation method, five pieces saw general workers according to the monthly work 30 days machine calculate, monthly salary up to 16000 yuan, milling machine, TaiwanThe average monthly salary also exceeds 14000 yuan. He said: "This is still the income of ordinary workers, if a skilled worker, according to the performance of the calculation, the maximum monthly income of up to twenty thousand or thirty thousand Yuan." "The reporter found in the interview, mahogany furniture" sky-high blue-collar "is not surprising, welders, machinery manufacturing, sales representatives, tuner, and many other industries, have also played a high salary to hire people's ads. At the same time, Nanning, Liuzhou some months sister-in-law's prices have also risen.  "Economic reference" reporter through QQ, MSN and other means, is engaged in the month sister-in-law and plans to hire the family survey, found that during the Spring Festival, these places, the month sister-in-law price has been higher than the original 300-800 yuan. The annual study of the Pearl River delta Labor problem experts, Zhejiang University doctor Yang Tianbao that: Labor price rise is undoubtedly the whole of China's economic development to a certain extent, industrial structure upgrading of the inevitable trend. He also pointed out: "' sky-high blue collar ' does not mean a complete ' seller's market ', because the enterprise side of the ' sky-high ' corresponding to the" High technology level "of the Labor Party, if there is no ' higher standard ', can not get enough compensation. "Economic reference newspaper reporter found in the interview, Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, some traditional processing enterprises in order to avoid the continued occurrence of" labor shortage "situation, began to focus on the construction of" offshore base "way to cultivate their own labor reserve personnel.  But with this accompanying, it is related industry "hollow trap" will gradually surface. Guangxi Yulin A long time engaged in jeans processing business owners Ching told reporters that the beginning of 2009, enterprises have invested in Vietnam to set up factories, a short period of two years, only the labor costs have reduced the cost. He said: "Domestic labor prices have been rising, I and a few shareholders to discuss the appreciation of the renminbi we set up factories in Vietnam, but also the direct settlement with the renminbi, a monthly salary of only hundreds of yuan, more than the domestic monthly salary of thousands of yuan, cheap half." "The sky Red Furniture Company is also brewing to build" Southeast Asia base. Xu Xiaoqing said: "We are ready in Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries to build a preliminary processing production base, which can save a lot of money." But the biggest problem is that the local workforce needs to be trained for quite a long time. "The Guangxi Humanities and Social Sciences Development Research Center Director, scholar Chen Xingzhang thinks:" If the labor-intensive industry transfers to the neighboring country, may cause in our country Midwest Province which has not already been rich to encounter the industry ' hollow trap ', thus may continue to pull up our country East and West Province's economic disparity. The central and western provinces urgently need to solve, is through the effective way, will raise the more high-level labor force, and through the government's coordination, realizes the Labor and the management in the salary treatment, the workers ' rights, the enterprise development foreground and so on many fields ' consensus '.  "Labor export big province:" Difficult to recruit? Reporter Georu Jiang Jianggang Hefei Report Labor resource shortage total of 250,000 people Anhui province is a large labor resource in the middle of the province, 67 million of the population, longThere are about 13 million migrant workers out of the year.  In recent years, in the national macro-economic recovery to the good and to undertake the transfer of eastern industry, the economy of Anhui sustained rapid growth, enterprise employment surge, the traditional labor export big Province also began to encounter "recruitment difficult." Recently held in Hefei, "2011 Anhui and East China large-scale talent recruitment", "Economic reference newspaper" reporters at the scene to see, and the previous large-scale recruitment will be crowded scene, the job fair was a bit deserted, a lot of recruiting stations almost nobody. Reporter learned that the job fair has more than 700 provincial and foreign enterprises to participate in, providing more than 30,000 posts.  In order to attract talent, many enterprises also collective pay rise. "Since the Spring Festival, I almost every day to participate in job fairs, than candidates run more frequently."  "Anhui Green Treasure Stainless Steel Equipment Manufacturing Co., Ltd. Human Resources Minister Zhang Yuzhi said," Our company now requires 50 workers, in order to recruit people, the enterprise has shortened the probationary period to one months, the first-line operator salary has been mentioned 1600 yuan, even so, did not recruit enough people. Anhui Province, the Department of Human Resources and social security statistics show that by the end of 2010, Anhui Province, more than 50 enterprises lack more than 2,300 households, the total number of workers to reach 250,000 people.  After the Spring Festival this year, the provincial enterprises also plan to hire more than 250,000 people. Increased labor force increase but reduce the reporter learned that the Anhui appeared in the "recruitment difficult" presents a structural and industry characteristics of two: first, the general workers, that is, no technical requirements of workers or front-line operators difficult to recruit, the shortage of enterprises recruit general workers number accounted for 64% of the total number of workers, the second is the main focus on the lack of clothing (toys) processing,  Mechanical processing, electronic processing and other labor-intensive industries, the number of workers accounted for 72%. In the past, we have been impressed by the output of the labor force, why will it encounter "recruitment difficulties"?  Anhui Province Human Resources and Social Security Department Director of Employment Promotion Department Liu XiaoYan that the industrial transfer brought about by the surge in employment demand and the increase in the new labor force reduction is the main reason. According to the Anhui provincial human resources and Social Security Department of the previous survey shows that at present, the province is concentrated in the city of Wanjiang belt. This year, only 32 major industrial transfer projects (enterprises) in Wanjiang City belt have been built and produced, and more than 30,000 people need to be recruited.  "Liu XiaoYan told the Economic reference newspaper reporter, in the future, with the expansion of enterprises, workers and return to entrepreneurship, these will lead to a surge in employment demand, employment gap will continue to increase." and the corresponding increase in employment demand, but the new growth in urban and rural labor supply is declining trend. According to the Anhui Provincial Bureau of Human Resources and social security statistics, Anhui Province 2008 new 1.089 million people, compared to the 2005 reduction of 280,000 people.  It is expected that during the "Twelve-Five-year" period, the new growth labor force in Anhui is still in shock downward trend. The new generation of migrant workers demand diversification, but also exacerbated the enterprise "recruitment difficult." In Hefei, an electrical enterprise to do quality Inspector Wang Qiang, monthly wages reached 2500 yuan. The 22-Year-old said he was under a lot of pressure because he worked 12 hours a day, and hardly any amateurActivities。 "My salary has an advantage over those of other employees," he said. But who can handle such a long working day? I'd like to change my job, too. "Nowadays, the new generation of labor force has become the main body, in the human resources market" generation "," "" The New generations of migrant workers accounted for more than 60%, their employment environment, income treatment and the realization of their own value more diversified.  Part of the shortage of enterprises working environment, employment is not standardized, many new generation of migrant workers do not want to go to such enterprises, resulting in tight labor supply and demand. In addition, due to the lag of network construction, public employment information transmission channel is single, many can not be communicated to the grassroots peasant workers in time.  At the same time, the majority of the labor force in Anhui comes from rural areas, its average education level is low, and most of them have not received vocational training, can not adapt to the needs of enterprises, resulting in labor skills and job needs of incompatible contradictions. Cheng analysis of the original vice president of China Regional Economic Society, with the rapid progress of industrialization, China has only spent 50 years to go through the western countries 100 years of development process, resulting in industrial technology progress and upgrade transformation, advanced productivity development, new products continue to emerge, enterprises to achieve mass production, A large labour force is needed.  But the worker's technology formation, the psychological quality promotion needs an adaptation process, this is the enterprise "the recruitment difficulty" the deep-seated reason. "Recruitment difficult" or will be long-term existence of the National Youth Committee, Anhui University School of Economics professor Jiangyonghong said, China's industry is a gradient transfer, the east coast of the industry to transfer to the Midwest is the trend. In the process of undertaking industrial transfer, Anhui is faced with the increasing demand of labor.  At the same time, with the quickening pace of urbanization, Anhui County economy can take off rapidly, also will bring a large number of labor demand, and new growth in urban and rural labor is a downward trend, therefore, long-term shortage of workers or will inevitably. According to the introduction, with the aging trend of the labor force is becoming more and more obvious, industrial structure to form the Labor age demand and labor age structure contradictions will become more and more prominent. According to the Department of Human Resources and Social security of Anhui Province, in 1990, the average age of labor in Anhui was 24 years, and in 2009, the average age rose to 37 years.  The aging trend of labor force is very obvious. Liu XiaoYan said that from the current economic and social development situation, "recruitment difficult" may not be a short-term phenomenon, or will become a long-term trend. However, she also pointed out that the current shortage of workers is still structural, and the emergence of "recruitment difficulties" is only partial. In the "recruitment difficult" at the same time, there are still some urban older unemployed people and urbanization brought about by the older transfer personnel difficult employment, "recruitment difficult" "employment difficult" phenomenon will exist for a long time.
