Chinanews, Fuzhou, March 2 (Reporter Long Min) "It is really not easy for migrant workers to integrate into the city." In an exclusive interview with a reporter from Chinanews recently, a representative of the National People's Congress, Jiahaojia (Fujian) Ecological Environment Technology Hou Yanmei, team leader of the company's environmental sanitation project, said, "It will be more 'blessing' for migrant workers to integrate into the city."

　　At the rest point of the urban management station in Hongshan Town, Gulou District, Fuzhou City, Hou Yanmei chatted with the workers before going to Beijing to participate in the National People’s Congress, “We must go to the labor site and listen to the voices of the front-line workers.”

　　No matter how ordinary a job site is, Hou Yanmei, who is "wandering", regards it as a job performance site.

"I am a deputy to the National People's Congress, but first of all I am a sanitation worker. I perform my duties all the time. Diligent and down-to-earth work itself is also part of my duties."

　　Hou Yanmei knows very well that in order to be a good representative of the National People's Congress, she must base herself on her post, consider issues from the perspective of migrant workers and sanitation workers, communicate with them with heart and soul, and understand their practical difficulties and real demands before she can come up with a solution. Down-to-earth, high-quality advice.

　　Since coming to Fuzhou to work in January 2012, Hou Yanmei has experienced the tremendous development of Fuzhou's environmental sanitation industry.

"Garbage classification is becoming more and more accurate, roads are becoming cleaner and tidier, and the city environment is becoming more and more beautiful. Especially in December 2020, Fuzhou took the lead in realizing 'zero landfill' of domestic waste in the country."

　　In Hou Yanmei's view, Fuzhou's waste sorting work has achieved outstanding results, but there are still some bottlenecks.

Some property management companies have not taken the initiative to take the initiative, some communities have not taken the initiative to promote it enough, and grassroots communities have not formed a joint force with administrative agencies, property management, voluntary organizations and residents.

　　"Garbage sorting is a new trend in urban environmental protection. It is a long way to go for environmental sanitation work to reduce, recycle, and harmless waste." Hou Yanmei said that waste sorting is like sailing against the current. Empowered by technology, improve the level of waste sorting management.

　　"The sanitation work is at night. Whenever I see the bright lights of thousands of houses, I feel very proud when I think that our migrant workers have made a contribution." This year marks the 45th anniversary of reform and opening up. According to Hou Yanmei, the huge migrant workers Contributed to China's reform and opening up.

　　Aside from being proud, Hou Yanmei felt a little sad in her heart, "For migrant workers, it is not easy to have their own lamp in the city."

　　"Migrant workers are facing all kinds of unimaginable pressure to integrate into the city." In the representative office specially set up by the company for Hou Yanmei, Hou Yanmei often listened to the bitterness and bitterness of the workers and witnessed the tears of many workers.

　　Because of the same feelings, Hou Yanmei pays special attention to the integration of migrant workers into the city.

She said that during the research process, she found that many migrant workers like herself are engaged in the work of delivery workers, couriers, and online car-hailing drivers, but these jobs have complicated employment relationships, legal rights are easily violated, and rights protection is difficult.

　　Hou Yanmei suggested that the system of labor laws and policies should be improved to implement the main responsibilities of enterprises, strengthen coordinated supervision to standardize enterprise operations and employment behaviors, and optimize the efficiency of public services to accurately and efficiently protect labor rights and interests.

　　Last year, Hou Yanmei became a new grandma, and she soon encountered "happiness troubles".

She said that child care costs more than 6,000 yuan per child, which is beyond the reach of migrant workers' families. Therefore, the daughter-in-law gave up her job and took care of the children full-time at home.

　　"I hope that governments at all levels will pay attention to the problem of raising migrant workers, and not let the high cost of childcare prevent migrant workers, a special group, from having children, or send their children to rural areas to become left-behind children," Hou Yanmei said.

　　"The labor shortage in coastal provinces in recent years has once again confirmed that migrant workers are an important contributor to the sustainable high-quality development of cities." Hou Yanmei said that more warm care measures should be given to migrant workers in terms of basic necessities of life, food, housing, transportation, education, etc. Introduce more granular measures to allow them to integrate into the city while building it.
