Factories ran to the highway intersection to "rob people"? According to China Securities News, since May 2, Zhengzhou Foxconn idpbg business group has been recruiting enthusiastically, with a maximum bonus of 8500 yuan. Compared with the previous award amount increased by 30%. The business group also said that idpbg business group established connection points at highway intersections for the first time to carry out "point-to-point" recruitment. It is understood that Foxconn idpbg business group is mainly responsible for Apple iPhone assembly.
In the "point-to-point" recruitment at the intersection of the expressway, the attendance bonus was increased by 30%. It can be seen that Foxconn did "fight" to "rob people". Affected by the epidemic, the mobility of people on a large scale has been reduced, and labor-intensive enterprises have to fight for local labor resources. AppleiPhone Global shipments are rising. Foxconn, as an assembly factory, has multiple orders and heavy tasks. It opens up a "point-to-point" closed-loop safe entry channel for job seekers at the highway intersection, of course, because of the lack of personnel. In order to ensure the production of enterprises, it is natural to "rob" one person.
Foxconn's "robbing people" to grab the high-speed intersection is an epitome of the "labor shortage" of labor-intensive enterprises at present. As a leading enterprise in the traditional manufacturing industry, Foxconn's employment is still so tight, so we can imagine the situation of other enterprises. The huge impact of the epidemic on labor-intensive enterprises, coupled with the diversion of labor from various emerging industries, has made the problem of "labor shortage" reported by the media in recent years more severe. According to the ranking of 100 occupations in which the national recruitment is greater than the "most short of jobs" in the fourth quarter of 2021 released by the Ministry of human resources and social security, the shortage of jobs in the manufacturing industry continues. From the distribution of 100 occupations, 43 belong to the sixth category - manufacturing and related personnel.
Manufacturing is the foundation of a country's economic and social development. No matter how far we develop, we cannot leave the real economy and ignore the manufacturing industry. As a large manufacturing country, whether it can realize the leap from big to strong is related to the overall situation of high-quality economic development. What needs attention is that more and more young people are unwilling to enter the factory. Many young people would rather deliver takeout and express than enter the factory. "Labor shortage" is not a case problem faced by any enterprise.
Why don't young people want to enter the factory? There may be many reasons. For example, the work content of the assembly line is single and boring, the factory management system is strict, overtime is often required, and the salary is not high. Moreover, the promotion space of factory work is very limited. It belongs to the kind of "you can see to the end at a glance", which is less helpful to the improvement of personal ability and lacks long-term welfare protection. In the final analysis, it is that skilled talents are not really treated well, young people can't see development prospects when entering the factory, and it is difficult to get the opportunity to shine in life in manufacturing factories.
In my opinion, the essence of the so-called "labor shortage" is the "shortage of cheap labor" -- the attraction of cheap wages decreases and workers' choice opportunities increase. Behind the "shortage of cheap labor" is the rational choice of workers and the contradiction between the growing material and cultural needs of workers and backward enterprise production. Foxconn high-speed intersection "robbing people" can solve the temporary needs at best, but it is difficult to solve the problem in essence. Because to solve the "labor shortage", the fundamental lies in making skilled talents have more development prospects.
Where there are many people, people are not "robbed", but come on their own initiative. To attract workers, factories can't just rely on temporary bonuses or "robbing people" at high-speed intersections. The manufacturing industry needs transformation and upgrading, and the employment of manufacturing industry also needs "transformation and upgrading".
In recent years, the state has paid more and more attention to vocational education, strengthened the training of skilled talents, and issued many encouraging policies to improve the attraction of vocational education. In addition, to really broaden the rising channel of vocational education students, the key lies in providing more high-income and promising employment opportunities for skilled talents. When the working environment of the factory is better, the management is more humanized, the wages and benefits are more guaranteed, the skilled talents have a wider rising channel and are more respected by the enterprise and society, the problem of "labor shortage" can be truly solved, and the factory naturally no longer needs to "rob people" at the highway intersection.
