On March 6, General Secretary Xi Jinping attended a forum on decisive battle and victory over poverty in Beijing and delivered an important speech. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that priority should be given to supporting the employment of poor laborers, prioritizing the organization and use of poor labor in areas such as resumption of production and resumption of production, the start of major projects, and the construction of the logistics system, and encourage enterprises to recruit more poor areas, especially the need to set up poverty-stricken documents Family members help the poor laborers to return to work as quickly and orderly as possible through the “point-to-point” collaboration between the eastern and western regions.
At a press conference held by the State Council ’s joint prevention and control mechanism, Liu Yongfu, director of the Office of the Leading Group for Poverty Alleviation and Development of the State Council, stated that the impact of the epidemic on poverty alleviation was relatively obvious, mainly because of the need for epidemic prevention and control, and people flow and logistics were affected. . Many poor families now rely on part-time jobs, which has been affected, but this situation is changing. Last year, 27.29 million people from across the countryside worked in poverty. By March 6, 14.2 million people had gone out, accounting for 52% of the actual number of migrant workers last year, slightly lower than in previous years. However, after the epidemic situation improved and the government took some measures, the speed of going out to work is accelerating. From February 28 to March 6, the number of people working has increased by 3 million, and it is expected to accelerate.
Wei Baigang, Director of the Development and Planning Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said that there are still about half of returning migrant workers who have not returned to the city to resume work. Migrant workers return to the city for employment as soon as possible. "Some of the returning rural migrant workers are willing to stay in the country to start a business. For these people, we will promote the implementation of the business subsidy policy, do a good job of one-on-one business training, and help them choose employment paths and improve their entrepreneurial capabilities."
After the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia, in addition to the poor labor force, the employment situation of other groups has also attracted much attention, and a number of policies and measures have been issued from the central government to the local government to actively respond.
Recently, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Implementation Opinions on Strengthening Employment Stability Measures in Response to the Impact of the New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Situation", and proposed five measures and policies. The first is to better implement the employment priority policy; the second is to guide the safe and orderly transfer of employment for migrant workers; the third is to expand employment channels for college graduates; the fourth is to strengthen the protection of people in need; the fifth is to improve vocational training and employment services.
Attach great importance to rural employment
Accurate butt employment services
Ma Liangyong (pseudonym) is the secretary of a village party branch. There are 26 poor households and 64 people in his village. Local “one-to-two” pairing assistance measures are implemented for poor households. One poor household is connected by a street cadre and a village cadre. All 26 poor households were lifted out of poverty in 2015 and they can still enjoy poverty alleviation policies.
"This epidemic has some impact on the work and life of poor households, including the inconvenience of purchasing living materials, the failure to sell some agricultural products, the poor purchase of seeds and fertilizers for production, and the inability to go out to work," Ma Liangyong told the Legal Daily. During the epidemic prevention and control, assistance to the poor households was mainly targeted by helping cadres to contact the specific needs of the poor households.
It is understood that a poor household in the village needs seeds and fertilizers, and because of traffic restrictions, they cannot go out of the village, so the cadres will assist in purchasing and centralized distribution. Other poor households have a need to go out to work, and help cadres report their statistics and provide employment information in a timely manner.
"At present, there are more and more companies returning to work and production, but the epidemic prevention and control still cannot be careless. We have registered all the poor households with employment needs and entered them into the higher-level employment demand database. After the epidemic situation is completely overcome, the supporting cadres will Connect directly with them as soon as possible and solve their employment problems as soon as possible. "Ma Liangyong said.
Wang Haohua (pseudonym) is the person in charge of a county public employment talent service bureau. He told the reporter of "Legal System Daily" that during the epidemic prevention and control, the local area mainly provided employment services from three aspects.
First of all, comprehensive exhaustion information, including information on the lack of employment and recruitment information of enterprises and information on the needs of key employment groups such as poor labor, returning migrant workers, and college graduates. "We spent a lot of energy to make arrangements through the WeChat public account, point-to-point publicity, and visits of village and township cadres." Wang Haohua said.
Secondly, carry out employment service docking and focus on implementing precise docking with key enterprises. Previously, the county will hold job fairs after the year, but now affected by the epidemic, the job fairs are shifted from offline to online. By understanding the employment needs of various companies, they will uniformly release job information through WeChat public accounts, TV stations, and so on. Regarding precise docking, Wang Haohua said that, for example, a company has 200 employees, and they will go to villages and towns near the company to publish relevant information, print out the QR code that publishes the public number of employment information, and paste it on the village entrance and community. At the entrance of the epidemic prevention inspection point, people can see relevant employment information by simply scanning.
Third, in order to ensure the smooth resumption of production and the normal return of employees to work, the county also actively implemented subsidies issued by higher authorities for key enterprises such as epidemic prevention materials production enterprises. In addition, the county has introduced some subsidy policies to promote employment. For example, companies chartered cars to send employees to work in other places, and companies recruit a large number of new employees, etc., there will be corresponding subsidies.
Online recruitment is gaining popularity
School companies work together
At a press conference held by the State Council ’s joint prevention and control mechanism, Vice Minister of Education Weng Tiehui said that this year, there were 8.74 million graduates of ordinary colleges and universities in the country, and the original pressure on employment was not small. In addition, the outbreak of epidemic conditions increased the pressure on graduates ’employment. Big. The Ministry of Education places graduate employment prominently, and works with relevant departments to maximize their employment channels, increase opportunities for further studies, and provide accurate guidance services.
Unlike poor labor and migrant workers, college graduates are more inclined to find jobs through the Internet.
The reporter of "Legal System Daily" learned that at present, the employment guidance centers of major universities have set up WeChat public accounts to release the latest recruitment information every day, and there is no shortage of recruitment information from well-known companies.
According to senior student Chu Wenhao (pseudonym), the education department in his area has launched a series of activities such as online spring recruitment of graduates since February. The school employment guidance center and each department have their own employment information release groups.
"It is quite convenient to apply for a job," Chu Wenhao said, "but for online interviews, there are some discomforts."
Xu Huaiying (pseudonym) is also a senior student. He passed the interview of the work unit at the end of last year. He originally planned to go to the unit for an internship after the winter vacation to offset the probation period agreed with the unit. The outbreak affected the internship program.
In the end, Xu Huaiying negotiated with the unit and the trial period began after graduation.
Xu Huaiying told the reporter of Legal Daily that other students had the same situation as him. However, some students have not yet found a job, and they are under more pressure.
In order to ease the employment pressure of college students, related policies have been introduced one after another.
Recently, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council issued the "Emergency Notice on Steadily Doing Job Stabilization and Employment Expansion During the Prevention and Control of the New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Situation", requiring central enterprises to vigorously promote job stabilization and job expansion to attract college graduates, migrant workers, and labor from poor areas Focus on the employment of three categories of people.
The recruitment notice of a large central enterprise stated, "To solve the problem of employment for college students, we promise: not to reduce recruitment, reduce recruitment, and try our best to meet employment needs."
The last year of poverty alleviation
Top employment issues
At a press conference held by the State Council ’s joint prevention and control mechanism, Liu Yongfu said that we must actively deal with the impact of the epidemic on poverty alleviation and minimize the impact of the epidemic on poverty alleviation, and we must not achieve the goal of poverty alleviation because of the epidemic . Focus on doing a good job for the poor laborers; carry out consumer poverty alleviation actions and sales of agricultural products, especially poverty alleviation products; do a good job of restarting poverty alleviation projects, and strive to complete in the first half of the year.
Su Guoxia, spokesperson of the State Council's Office of Leading Group for Poverty Alleviation and Development and director of the Comprehensive Department, said that the employment of poor households in poverty-stricken areas is the main source of income, so we and the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security have introduced measures to help poor households increase their employment. Require the safe and orderly organization of the return of poor laborers for employment, promote local employment, encourage key enterprises to preferentially recruit qualified poor laborers and, if recruited, provide one-time employment subsidies. In order to promote employment, we have also played the role of the poverty-relief cooperation mechanism between the east and the west. At present, 1 million poor families' labor force has been re-employed through “point-to-point” transfers across provinces. We and the Ministry of Finance have made clear that we require 80% of the benefits of photovoltaic poverty alleviation in 2020 to be used by the poor to pay for public welfare posts and the wages of poor households participating in the construction of public welfare undertakings in the village to minimize the impact of the epidemic on their wage income.
Wei Baigang said that for the rural secondary and tertiary industries, the focus is to promote the implementation of supporting policies such as leisure agriculture and rural tourism, rural small and medium-sized enterprises' credit guarantee, and promote the construction of high-standard farmland, the improvement of rural human settlements, and the acceleration of modern agricultural industry development projects. Construction, create more jobs, and let these laborers engaged in the secondary and tertiary industries in the countryside get employed as soon as possible. For those engaged in agricultural production, focus on spring plough preparation work such as supply of agricultural resources, strengthen scientific and technological services, strengthen productive socialization services mainly based on agricultural machinery, help them solve production problems, and rush cultivation and planting in a timely manner without losing agricultural time.
Zhang Liyun, an associate professor at the School of Law of the China Institute of Labor Relations, believes that employment of poor labor is more urgent than employment of the general labor. This year is the last year of the fight against poverty. China ’s poverty population has decreased from 99.99 million at the end of 2012 to 5.51 million at the end of 2019. Affected by the epidemic, it has become more difficult to fight poverty alleviation and poverty alleviation. Therefore, it is necessary to give priority to supporting the employment of poor laborers.
"After years of hard work, China has accumulated a wealth of experience in poverty reduction, such as precision poverty alleviation, docking between the East and the West. Combining the urgency of poverty alleviation work and the need to resume work and production, on the one hand, it provides various help to the poor labor force, and On the one hand, it is possible to consider recruiting the poor labor force in consultation with the employers. For agricultural production, early spring cultivation is very important. For the rural poor, assistance in farming and fertilization must be completed according to farming hours, in order to win poverty alleviation. Laying the foundation for tough battles. "Zhang Liyun said.
Zhang Liyun believes that in the long run, ensuring the employment of poor labor force and education cannot be relaxed. This is an important job to prevent the intergenerational transmission of poverty, including vocational education and training. A full grasp of a vocational skill is equivalent to having the keys to employment and poverty alleviation.
"For poor people who are difficult to get rid of poverty through their own efforts due to illness or other reasons, the corresponding social assistance system needs to be put in place to give them timely help." Zhang Liyun said.
Help enterprises resume work and resume production
Stabilize employment and develop economy
At a press conference held by the State Council ’s Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism, You Jun, deputy director of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, said that the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security will take employment stabilization as a top priority and expand employment and support enterprise development by focusing on stable economic growth. Stabilizing employment, highlighting key groups to ensure employment, optimizing training services to promote employment, and strengthening the bottom line of employment assistance, comprehensively implement policies and work together to help college graduates with more precise policy measures and more powerful work measures. Key groups such as migrant workers are employed as early as possible and return to work in time to reduce the impact of the epidemic on employment and to ensure that the employment situation is generally stable.
Gao Kun, Deputy Secretary-General of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that the National Development and Reform Commission will work with the relevant departments and localities to thoroughly implement the spirit of the State Council executive meeting, continue to place stable employment in a prominent position, and accelerate the implementation of the policies that have been introduced. , Continue to deepen the reform of “decentralization and management services”, promote “Internet +”, and promote the “dual innovation” in-depth development, further stimulate market vitality, create more jobs, work hard to reduce the adverse effects of the epidemic, and do all we can to stabilize employment jobs.
Shen Jianfeng, Dean of the School of Law of China Institute of Labor Relations believes that since the outbreak, a large number of policies and measures to promote and stabilize employment have been introduced from the central to local levels, mainly including the following four aspects:
First, help businesses. Through phased reductions and exemptions of social security, deferred payment of housing provident fund, increased unemployment insurance and stable job return, and issued one-time employment subsidies and job stabilization subsidies, etc., to support small and medium-sized enterprises in their normal production operations and even to expand production, so as to achieve the prevention and control of epidemics Discontinued and no layoffs.
Secondly, promote the orderly resumption of production and division of enterprises in different levels.
Third, promote employment of key groups such as migrant workers and college graduates. Specific measures include the implementation of "point-to-point" return to work for migrant workers, support for migrant workers to find employment nearby, and increase recruitment of graduates in basic education, primary care, and community services.
Finally, actively promote online recruitment.
In Shen Jianfeng's opinion, the above-mentioned policies and measures have very positive significance for reducing the burden on enterprises, stabilizing the employment situation, and building harmonious labor relations in special periods. Among them, some policies and measures can not only effectively alleviate the employment pressure brought by the epidemic, but also represent the development direction of future employment, which is conducive to improving the employment structure and balancing social and economic development.
"With the continuous advancement of the rule of law government, a series of policies to promote employment that have been introduced in recent years, including during the epidemic prevention and control period, have clear legal basis." Shen Jianfeng said, for example, Article 2 of the Employment Promotion Law states that the state will expand employment Putting prominence on economic and social development, implementing a proactive employment policy, adhering to the principle of independent labor selection, market-regulated employment, and government promotion of employment, and expanding employment through multiple channels; Article 52 stipulates that people's governments at all levels establish and improve employment The assistance system adopts methods such as tax and fee reduction, loan discount, social insurance subsidy, and post subsidy, etc., and provides priority support and key assistance to people with employment difficulties through channels such as public welfare job placement.
"The key to the stable development of the employment situation is to maintain a virtuous circle of socio-economic development. Policies and measures to promote employment need to consider all aspects of socio-economic development. At present, the focus of socio-economic recovery is still on the consumer market, and consumer demand in the market suppressed by the epidemic has been restored. Later, it will be a powerful driving force for economic growth to drive employment. Without the epidemic situation being completely controlled, 'Internet + logistics' can meet consumer demand to a certain extent, promote resumption of work and production, and stabilize the employment situation. "Zhang Liyun said .
Professor Liu Junhai of Renmin University of China Law School also believes that during the epidemic prevention and control, the Internet and logistics industry played a role in promoting employment and stabilizing the economy. For migrant workers, especially rural poor laborers, who cannot resume work and production in time due to the epidemic situation, they can increase their income by selling agricultural products through "Internet + logistics". For college graduates, the implementation of online interview signing is an important way to solve their employment problems.
