The Monthly Salary Of Migrant Workers Is Too Low &Nbsp; Manufacturing Industry Has The Largest Labor Gap.

It is understood that the number of migrant workers in Foshan is decreasing by 10% per year.

Foshan over 90% recruitment difficulties

According to the data analysis of the supply and demand of human resources market in the third quarter of 2010 in Foshan, human resources in the fourth quarter of this year are shown.

According to dragon Berlin, senior HR Consultant analyst at Foshan branch of Zhitong talent market, in all industries in Foshan, the employment gap in manufacturing industry is relatively large compared to other industries.

The main reason is that manufacturing industry is labor-intensive industry, and its demand for employment is greater.

Reporters from the third quarter of 2010 Foshan city human resources market occupation supply and demand analysis report, Foshan manufacturing industry in the third quarter of the total number of employment demand for 6856 people, accounting for 56.5% of the total demand.

Manufacturing industry dominates Foshan economy

Since the beginning of reform and opening up, China has become a global trading exporter and even enjoys the reputation of "world factory" by developing labor-intensive industries, especially in Foshan, which is located in the Pearl River Delta region. In 2009, the GDP of the city was estimated to be about 470 billion yuan, accounting for 15% of the Pearl River Delta GDP, of which the total industrial output value of above scale is close to 12000 billion yuan, and "Foshan manufacturing" is indispensable.

Although Foshan is an industrial leading manufacturing city, its current advantages are mostly manifested in traditional industries. According to statistics, traditional industries account for about 55% of the total industry. Several pillar industries, such as ceramics, textiles, aluminum profiles, food and beverage, plastics, household appliances and so on, are all labor-intensive industries and require a large number of workers.

According to Xu, manager of the personnel department of an electronics factory in Foshan, recruitment difficulties are an industry problem. Their factory labor gap has been very large, recruiting 200~300 people every day during the recruitment season, but still unable to meet the demand.

At the end of the year, the company will try its best to keep people. It will be necessary to raise wages after the Spring Festival this year.

Zou, a carton factory in Shunde, told reporters that migrant workers in their factories accounted for 70% of their annual returns every year, and the proportion declined over the past two years. Workers have been in short supply after the year, but they have barely kept up. If they reach the peak season of production, they will only be able to recruit people with high wages.

Manufacturing industry has the highest monthly salary of 1500 yuan.

At the two sessions of Foshan held in July this year, Luo Yubo and Xia Shufa of the Foshan Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China jointly put forward the proposal to solve the problem of labor shortage in Foshan. The recommendation mentioned that the base salary for processing workers in Foshan area to ordinary workers is about 700 yuan per month. If the weekend and normal overtime pay are counted, the monthly income will be about 1200~1500 yuan.

However, in terms of expenditure, their monthly housing rent is 260 yuan. If the cost of water, electricity, gas, sanitation, cable TV and so on is about 320 yuan, in addition, the cost of eating, shopping and driving costs about 500 yuan, so the monthly expenditure is no less than 1000 yuan, so the average worker can only have about 400~500 yuan a month.

In comparison, the basic reason for the shortage of labor in Foshan lies in the low wage level.

It is not that enterprises are unwilling to raise salaries for their employees, but that the processing and manufacturing industry in Foshan is at the low end of the value chain.
