The shortage of raw materials and the lack of personnel can make it difficult for some poverty alleviation workshops to resume work. This also reveals some inherent deficiencies in development. Many poverty alleviation workshops are uneven from planning and construction to operation management, from poverty alleviation effects to development prospects. The key is to make industrial development more closely linked to the interests of migrant workers.

In recent years, many places have supported the development of poverty alleviation workshops and played an important role in promoting employment and poverty alleviation for poor families. At present, many poverty alleviation workshops have resumed work, which has stimulated the employment of many migrant workers and played a role in the "epidemic" process.

However, a reporter from the Workers' Daily found that some poverty alleviation workshops faced difficulties in returning to work due to lack of people and short materials.

Lack of personnel and short materials make it difficult to resume work

In Gansu, a total of 1982 poverty alleviation workshops have been developed in the past two years, and more than 90,000 migrant workers have been employed, of which more than 33,000 have been registered as poor labors. The average monthly salary of migrant workers employed in poverty alleviation workshops is 1600 yuan to 3,500 yuan, and the average annual income is more than 20,000 yuan.

After the Spring Festival this year, only 237 poverty alleviation workshops in Gansu Province resumed work. With the promotion of relevant government departments, as of February 23, there were 519 poverty alleviation workshops that resumed work. By early March, nearly half of the poverty alleviation workshops had not resumed work.

At a news conference held a few days ago, Zhou Lining, director of the Gansu Provincial Department of Human Resources and Social Security, frankly stated that due to the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the shortage of raw materials and the inability of personnel to work in the Gansu poverty alleviation workshops led to difficulties in returning to work.

On the one hand, during the epidemic period, due to the traffic control in various places, many of the poverty-alleviation workshops with processing materials received raw materials and products could not be transported, which restricted the progress of the poverty-reduction workshops to resume production and work; on the other hand, as labor Intensive "big industries and small workshops", enterprises need a large number of employees, and migrant workers want to choose high-income jobs. Such a "dual-demand" problem of labor also restricts the resumption of production and resumption of work in poverty alleviation workshops.

A migrant worker who had worked in a poverty alleviation workshop admits that now that the products are not selling well, and after the enterprise further reduces the cost, the piece rate compensation is also lowered. It feels that the income for one day is not as good as before, so there is no enthusiasm for returning to work.

Exposed some birth defects

According to media reports, the difficulties faced by the Gansu Poverty Alleviation Workshop are still in other places. "Resumption of work in poverty alleviation workshops is difficult to expose some inherent deficiencies in development." An analysis of relevant persons pointed out that some poverty alleviation workshops are uneven from planning and construction to operation management, from poverty alleviation effects to development prospects, especially after the epidemic.

Chai Shaohao, member of the Standing Committee of the CPPCC of Gansu Province and vice chairman of the Gansu Provincial Federation of Industry and Commerce, conducted a survey on the development of poverty alleviation workshops in various places. He analyzed and pointed out that some poor areas followed up blindly, and poverty alleviation workshops "flowered everywhere", but failed to produce normally and had a high idle rate. . Some investment invitations are imprecise and closed shortly after the start of construction. "Some workshops have irregular management and there are hidden dangers."

Zheng Xiaoping, member of the Standing Committee of the CPPCC of Gansu Province and deputy dean of Lanzhou Institute of Technology, believes that the cause of the "two skins" of industrial development and precision poverty alleviation is that the industrial development is vigorous, but the participation of poor people is not high, and some poverty alleviation workshops follow the trend Industry, leading to "not a bumper harvest".

The above-mentioned relevant persons analyzed and pointed out that the key is to make the industrial development and the interests of migrant workers more closely, work hard to solve marketing, production and sales docking, and improve the logistics system in poor areas, avoiding simple "give money to things to cattle and sheep", establish Positive incentive mechanism and negative constraint mechanism to enhance the sense of participation and gain of migrant workers.

New consumption brings new opportunities

In the past few days, in response to the problem of resuming work in poverty alleviation workshops, relevant departments have adopted many emergency measures. The Gansu Provincial Government has decided to grant labor subsidies to all kinds of production and business entities such as poverty alleviation workshops, cooperatives and other local production laborers who have been employed for more than half a year. , According to the standard reward of 5,000 yuan per person. In addition, training subsidies are issued.

Gansu Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology urgently instructed 10 cities and prefectures including Dingxi and Longnan involving industrial poverty alleviation in the east and west, actively exploring "network bridge", launching "2020 industrial transfer series docking activities · Entering Gansu", and actively planning poverty reduction in the region The workshop's industrial cooperation projects, especially the short-term problems of the industrial chain in the epidemic prevention and control work, and targeted project cooperation. The Provincial Human Resources and Social Affairs Department will strengthen cooperation with the transportation and other departments to customize customized cars, implement "point-to-point" and "one-stop" delivery of "going out, getting in, getting out, and entering the factory", providing flexible and efficient services. . Human resources and social departments of various places have sunk to the grass-roots village communities, tracking services throughout the process, and doing their best to organize and mobilize migrant workers to return to poverty alleviation workshops.

Some experts have pointed out that the new type of consumption created during the epidemic prevention and control has brought new opportunities to the development of poverty alleviation workshops. Some poverty alleviation workshops with better return to work are struggling for the "advance train" for new consumption. In the poverty alleviation workshop of Tianshui Zhongxing Fungus Technology Co., Ltd., more than 30 migrant workers picked and packed enoki mushrooms in a busy and orderly manner on the production line. Driven by the popularity of “fresh food online” during the epidemic, this poverty alleviation workshop has 100 tons of edible fungi every day, and is stably sold to Lanzhou, Xi'an, Yinchuan and other places. Migrant worker Pu Ruizhen said, "Not long ago I was worried about the impact of the epidemic and will be 'unemployed' this year. Who knows that I am earning more now, earning 3,000 yuan a month, and taking care of my family.

Seeing the new opportunities of poverty alleviation workshops, Gansu Province decided to build another 1225 poverty alleviation workshops this year, to absorb 33,400 poor labor force who set up files, and arrange industry-to-household support funds of 15.56 billion yuan. At the same time, on the basis of summing up experience, clarify support policies, strengthen supervision services, and make poverty alleviation workshops operate more standardized and increase income more significantly.
