Through social platforms, Yu Yishu from Shandong completed the video recording between the seemingly casual "chat".

After graduating with a master's degree, she became a short video blogger and started a career that was different from the 9-to-5 career of office workers.

  At present, my country's flexible employment has reached about 200 million people. With the first batch of "post-00s" walking out of the ivory tower, flexible employment has also become one of the important choices for college graduates to find employment.

  Flexible working hours, independent work arrangements, and taking into account interests and hobbies, the seemingly "beautiful" flexible employment has also caused some graduates to worry: how to protect labor rights without signing labor contracts?

Who is responsible for occupational injury without paying work injury insurance?

The industry iterates quickly, eats a meal of youth, and what should I do for long-term career development?

  Experts remind that when graduates choose flexible employment, they should comprehensively consider issues such as social security rights and career development, and make long-term plans for personal development.

  More and more graduates prefer flexible employment

  The "gust of wind" in the summer vacation of 2019 will blow Yu Yishu, who is still studying for a master's degree, to the flexible employment track.

  On the eve of the IELTS test, she took a "Tucao" video and posted it on the short video platform. "It was unexpected, the video suddenly became popular, and many netizens left messages."

  "Afterwards, there were several videos 'breaking the circle'." Yu Yishu, who gradually found the way of short videos, will officially become a blogger after graduating with a master's degree in 2021, specializing in the creation of short videos of life.

Currently, it has nearly 800,000 fans.

  Occupations closely related to the Internet such as network anchors, e-commerce operators, copywriters, etc., do not clock in, do not work, and have flexible employment methods, which are favored by graduates.

According to the "2022 College Student Employability Survey Report" released by Zhaopin, 18.6% of the 2022 college graduates chose freelance jobs, an increase of 3 percentage points from last year.

  Li Qianqian, a fresh graduate majoring in music education, was attracted by the freedom of flexible employment and chose to become an online piano sparring partner.

"Young people don't need to be 'stable', they can first brush up on experience, build up contacts, and then go it alone."

  "College graduates have received good education, and their choice of flexible employment is different from traditional 'part-time jobs'." Han Wei, associate researcher of the China Academy of Labor and Social Security Sciences and secretary-general of the Modern Service Industry Branch of the China Labor Society, told reporters that college graduates Flexible employment for students, higher quality of employment, stronger labor autonomy, and more diverse forms of employment, showing a clear tendency towards digitalization.

  Labor rights face 'flexible' risks

  At the beginning of this year, Li Qianqian had a small operation, which cost more than 10,000 yuan before and after, which is a lot of expenses for her who just started working.

"When you get sick, you realize how important it is to have health insurance."

  During the interview, the reporter found that many graduates lack social security awareness like Li Qianqian.

According to the current relevant policies, people with flexible employment can participate in endowment insurance and medical insurance. Some places have loosened household registration restrictions for people with flexible employment to pay social security.

  Shang Siyu, a lawyer from Beijing Jintai Law Firm, pointed out that when choosing a career, college graduates generally consider factors such as remuneration, industry development, and personal growth, and often ignore social security rights, especially work-related injury insurance, which belongs to employers' liability insurance and has no employer. , individuals cannot participate in insurance, "It is recommended that graduates choose commercial insurance to supplement according to the nature of their work."

  "Graduates should pay special attention to terms of salary payment, working hours, rest and vacation, social security rights, occupational injuries, etc." Han Wei reminded.

  Enjoying the freedom of flexible employment also means taking the risks and pressures associated with it.

  "Sometimes short videos that took a few days to make just can't impress the audience." Yu Yishu told reporters that the number of clicks fluctuated greatly, and it was difficult to find "popular models", which meant that her income was very unstable.

  Fill up the short board of rights and interests

  With the large-scale trend of flexible employment, many places and departments have successively issued policies to protect flexible employment workers, including college graduates.

  In 2021, eight departments including the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the All-China Federation of Trade Unions will jointly formulate the "Guiding Opinions on Safeguarding the Rights and Interests of Laborers in New Employment Forms" to increase the protection of labor rights and interests of workers in new forms of employment.

  This year, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Notice on Further Doing a Good Job in the Employment and Entrepreneurship of College Graduates and Other Youth", proposing that college graduates who have not been employed within the year of graduation and within two years of leaving school to achieve flexible employment will be given social security subsidies according to regulations.

  For the highly popular occupational injury protection, pilot projects have also been started in many places.

  Among them, Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province has created a new model of "work-related injury + supplementary + commercial" insurance participation, and a network platform that clearly plays the role of the main body of workers can participate in work-related injury insurance for a single type of insurance for employees in new formats, and participate in work-related injury supplementary insurance at the same time; Changshu City, Jiangsu Province launched For occupational injury insurance for employees in the new business model, each person pays 360 yuan per year, and the maximum claim standard is 400,000 yuan per person per year.

  In January of this year, Yu Yishu set up his own studio in Shandong with a total of 3 members.

At present, the studio has successively enjoyed tax relief and social security deferral policies for small and micro enterprises.

She knows that it is not easy to stay on the flexible employment track for a long time, and she needs to run hard.
