Relieve the worries of overage migrant workers (People's Times Commentary)

  Recently, many places across the country have successively issued documents requiring further regulation of the age management of construction enterprises; relevant construction sites clearly prohibit the recruitment of over-age migrant workers, and use facial recognition and other technical means to regulate employment... After bidding farewell to construction sites, over-age farmers How to transform workers, and how to ensure income and pensions have become a practical issue.

  Migrant workers are the main body of my country's industrial workers and an important force in promoting the country's modernization drive.

Thousands of migrant workers have made great contributions to my country's economic and social development.

From participating in the construction of urban infrastructure such as schools and hospitals, to demolition and renovation of old communities, every step of urban development and renewal is full of the hard work of migrant workers.

For over-aged migrant workers, we should help them solve the most direct and realistic interests, and strive to protect everyone's labor security rights.

  Employment policy to maintain temperature.

For many over-aged migrant workers, income from work is an important source of income for their families.

For those migrant workers who are willing to use their residual heat, it is advisable to strengthen targeted public employment services, and guide them to transform into service-oriented and auxiliary positions with higher safety factors through various channels.

At the same time, in some areas with relatively low requirements on physical strength and ability, restrictions can be appropriately relaxed, health monitoring can be strengthened, and over-age migrant workers who are willing to be supported can be engaged in some low-intensity work nearby.

Over-aged migrant workers have rich working experience and a certain amount of physical strength. The management policies of various regions should leave a sufficient buffer period, so that the accumulated experience and abilities of the over-age workers can be "slowly released" and gradually withdraw from the front line of labor.

  The pension policy needs to be improved.

A happy and happy old age is the expectation of all workers, including migrant workers.

In reality, due to historical factors and practical difficulties, some over-aged migrant workers have a relatively short time for pension insurance payment, and the savings in their personal accounts are not high.

To this end, on the one hand, it is necessary to continue to increase the coverage of basic endowment insurance, work-related injury insurance and other insurances for migrant workers, and to promote the liberalization of the household registration restrictions for people with flexible employment from other provinces to participate in insurance in the place of employment. The level of subsidy for individual contributions.

On the other hand, it is necessary to implement detailed rural elderly care services, actively develop public welfare positions in villages and towns, explore methods such as asset income support systems, promote the social participation of returning migrant workers, increase their income, and let the over-aged migrant workers who have rested share the fruits of reform and development. .

In short, we must take multiple measures to relieve the worries of over-aged migrant workers.

  At present, the total number of migrant workers in my country has approached 300 million.

The transformation and upgrading of the industrial structure puts forward higher requirements for the comprehensive quality of workers.

In the face of still relatively large employment pressure, we must stick to the bottom line of people's livelihood, solve the security problem of over-aged migrant workers, and give them support and support for their old age.

On this basis, efforts are made to expand and improve quality, and constantly expand new employment space.

Only by further improving the skills and quality of young and middle-aged workers, increasing security, and promoting a fair and effective intergenerational connection between long and short, can more adequate and higher-quality employment be achieved.

  There is an opportunity to choose a career again, and there is no trouble in old age.

Pay more attention to alleviating structural employment contradictions, pay attention to the coordinated development of policies, and strive to do a good job of serving over-aged migrant workers and other groups in the process of in-depth implementation of the employment priority strategy, which will definitely make migrant workers work more decently and live better. Comfortable.
