Chinanews client, Beijing, August 30 (Reporter Li Jinlei) "First of all, the structural employment contradiction is more prominent and will become the main contradiction in the employment field. This may be our most basic understanding of the employment situation during the 14th Five-Year Plan period. Judgment. Its outstanding performance is the coexistence of'difficulties in employment' and'difficulties in recruiting', and may even be strengthened."
On August 30, Gao Gao, Deputy Secretary-General of the National Development and Reform Commission, said this at the State Council’s regular policy briefing.

Gao Gao pointed out that the "difficulty in employment" is mainly reflected in the inability of some workers' knowledge and skills to adapt to the changes in the development of modern industries, and the difficulty in job hunting and employment has increased. There is a problem of insufficient matching of needs,
so there may be some structural contradictions with high education and low skills.
On the other hand, the trend of population aging is accelerating, and the number of older workers is increasing. As the industry transforms and upgrades, their employment will become more difficult.
At the same time, there are also "difficulties in recruiting workers." Especially in the recent period, in some industries that serve import and export trade in the eastern coastal areas, there is an obvious shortage of general workers, skilled workers, especially technical and skilled personnel.
In fact, the recruitment rate of skilled talents in my country has been maintained at 1.5 times for a long time, and high-skilled talents will even reach 2 or more.
"At present, the proportion of the total number of skilled personnel in the country is constantly increasing, but its proportion is still low in terms of the huge labor force population structure, and it is now less than 30%. Germany, Japan and other manufacturing powers, their skilled personnel The total proportion can reach 70% to 80%, so our gap is still relatively large." Gao Gao said that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, it is expected that technological progress and industrial transformation and upgrading will accelerate further, which will affect the skills of workers. Quality puts forward higher requirements, especially the structural contradiction of high-quality labor shortage may be more acute.
Gao Gao believes that, in terms of total amount, employment pressure still exists in urban areas.
In the coming period,
we will need new growth labor force such as college graduates to work in cities and towns every year, and it is estimated that there will be more than 10 million people every year.
At the same time, in the process of industrialization and urbanization, there will still be a considerable amount of rural surplus labor that needs to be transferred to employment.
The task of promoting the employment of key groups such as college graduates and migrant workers is still very arduous.
In addition, in terms of some deep-seated problems in the field of labor and employment, there are still some mismatches between the labor field policy system and the realization of more adequate and higher-quality employment.
The social mobility channels of labor and talents are still not smooth enough, and there are still some differences in employment policy services between regions and between urban and rural areas.
The protection of labor rights for flexible employees, older persons and women workers needs to be further strengthened.
Gao Gao said that looking forward to the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, my country's economic and social development has entered a new stage. The overall analysis and judgment show that although there will be many difficulties and challenges in promoting employment in the future, as well as a large number of uncertain factors, the overall Shanghai is still confident that it can maintain a stable employment situation, so as to provide a solid foundation for more adequate and higher-quality employment.
Gao Gao believes that, first of all, my country's long-term economic improvement has provided important support for employment promotion.
Second, the service industry and the private economy are constantly developing and expanding, thus providing a broad space for expanding employment.
Third, in recent years, double innovation and the accelerated development of the digital economy have provided continuous and powerful new momentum for employment expansion.
