Wage Consultation Mechanism Is A Big Improvement In The Spinning And Weaving Industry. Two

Long sleepy

Implementation of New River town Wage negotiation The system was also forced out.

The woollen sweater factory in New River town is concentrated on both sides of the highway on Lantau Island, as well as many garment industries in China. In the mid 80s of last century, it developed from family workshops, from the initial four or five scale to nearly 100 in 1998, and then to the 116 enterprises at most, nearly 1 billion yuan annual output value and 12000 workers.

On Changyu Island Cardigan Among the workers in the industry, 70%-80% is the province of other provinces, and labor disputes are also inconstant with the influx of migrant workers with working experience.

Woolen sweater production has a weak season. Every April to December is the peak season, and January to April is the off-season. This instability leads directly to the instability of workers. Every March and April, workers fly like migratory birds. They fly past in December and fly away like migratory birds. Whether wages can be settled on time will become the focus of conflict between workers and employers.

The woolen sweater enterprises on Lantau are not large in scale, and some of them only have annual output value of 34 million yuan. "Money" is not big. "Gas" is not natural. Chen Fuqing introduced that before 2003, some bosses had to pay their living expenses only at the end of the year in order to "bind" the workers, and the wages were paid at the end of the year. Therefore, especially in the poor management of enterprises, there often occurs arrears and deductions of wages.

In August and September, the peak season of production is also the frequent occurrence of petitions and stoppages caused by wage problems. In 2002 alone, Cardigan The number of workers in the industry accounted for 45% of the total number of visits.

Unreasonable labor prices and irregular employment often lead to frequent job hopping and skilled workers are hard to stabilize. The shortage of workers in the busy season has become the collective dilemma of the Lanzhou sweater factory and has become a bottleneck restricting the growth and strengthening of the local industry.

However, this situation has been significantly improved after collective wage negotiations. In 2003, the petition for labour disputes in the Lanzhou sweater industry decreased by 70% over the same period in 2002.

"In 2006, we achieved zero complaints about wage disputes." Chen Fuqing is proud of this result.

Progress in "consultation"

How to treat Wage negotiation The "Wenling model"?

"This is a good phenomenon and a manifestation of fair and fair competition among different interest groups in the society." Zhong Dajun, a famous economist, said in an interview with our reporter that the "Wenling model" is very good and worth spreading to the whole country.

Zhong Da Jun analyzed that when China increased its openness to the outside world, the whole economy was linked to the world's strong economic bloc. In this process, China unknowingly became the object of cheap looting. To a certain extent, this situation has led to a large number of low wage strata in China. To change this phenomenon, our country must speed up the process of industrialization, and adjust the industrial structure and urban and rural social structure as soon as possible to a reasonable state. But in this process, if we maintain a low wage state for a long time, it is likely that China's industrialization and modernization will go into a malformed state.

" Wage negotiation The mechanism is a progress. Before it was the boss's interest group, the workers had no mechanism to compete with the boss, and now they have the wage consultation mechanism, so that the income distribution is fair and reasonable, which is conducive to the long-term development of the whole industry and economy. Zhong Dajun thinks.

Today, the wage consultation system has been highly valued by the relevant departments of the state.

The National Union recently convened a special meeting to propose that the collective contract system should be implemented in all kinds of trade union enterprises by 2012, and the collective wage consultation should be implemented in an all-round way. The latest news from the all China Federation of trade unions shows that up to now, 13 provinces have issued documents to promote collective wage consultations, and 23 Provincial People's congresses have formulated local regulations such as "collective contract provisions" or "collective contract regulations". In addition, the wage regulations drafted by the Ministry of labor and social security will be promulgated within the year, and the terms of the wage consultation system will be included.

From July 1st onwards, Beijing, Henan, Shenzhen, Shaanxi, Anhui, Hainan and other provinces and cities at the same time raise the minimum wage standards, an average increase of more than 20%. There are 27 provinces or municipalities that have raised or planned to raise minimum wage standards this year.

A nationwide "wage surge" and "wage consultation" are heating up again.
