【Explanation】Since the official approval of the Zhangjiang Science City construction plan in 2017, a large number of enterprises have entered Zhangjiang, especially science and technology-based enterprises. In an interview with reporters, Wang Shimin, deputy mayor of Zhangjiang Town, Pudong New District, Shanghai, said that due to the frequent turnover of technical talents and high liquidity, some small start-up companies have problems such as unsound systems, unstandardized operations, and unclear labor policies. Labor disputes in science and technology enterprises within the jurisdiction have been increasing in recent years. Official data shows that in 2019 alone, science and technology and start-up enterprises accounted for 58% of the 1,300 cases handled by Zhangjiang under the arbitration procedure.
Wang Shimin believes that the construction of the three courts will effectively save the costs of enterprises and laborers, and improve efficiency. "This is very critical for science and technology enterprises and science and technology talents."

Both for enterprises and laborers are cost savings. For science and technology-based enterprises and science and technology-oriented talents, these time and cost savings are very critical.
【Explanation】According to the official statement, while the labor dispute resolution platform established on the same day provides traditional mediation and arbitration services, it can also collect key data and risk risks that affect the contradiction between labor and management through the integration of existing case data and big data analysis.
