Dongguan is China's "world factory".
Zhenxiong is the county with the largest number of poor people in China.
The driving navigation map shows that the journey from Zhenxiong to Dongguan is 1229 kilometers.
From the mountains in the west to the coast in the east, from poor areas to economically developed areas. In recent years, like Daniel Zhang, a group of employment poverty alleviation cadres stationed in distant places have helped many people who have never stepped out of the mountains and found jobs thousands of miles away.
As the director of The Labor Export Workstation stationed by Zhenxiong in Qingxi Town, Dongguan, Guangdong Province, Daniel Zhang has visited hundreds of domestic workers in Dongguan since April last year.
Entering the park and entering the factory, in addition to on-site inspection and analysis of the employment situation, the 37-year-old often asks questions for the migrant workers: Can the canteen add a spicy dish or pepper sauce? Is there a husband and wife room in the factory? Can children read on the spot? Five insurances and one gold to buy or not to buy? ......
Daniel Zhang expand labor cooperation with local social security departments, industrial parks and enterprises, collect and sort out employment information, and timely transmit the information back to the hometown, and then provide it to the villagers by the villages, and organize a large number of laborers to go out to work in an orderly manner by the counties and townships.
In more than a year, the Daniel Zhang collected tens of thousands of dynamic reserve jobs, coordinated and resolved more than 20 labor disputes of migrant workers, and recovered more than 500,000 yuan in wages; assisted the masses to solve 4 work injuries, obtained compensation of more than 1.2 million yuan, and helped more than 2,000 hometown people to find employment in Qingxi.
On February 10 this year, the first day of the factory's resumption of work, he went to Guangdong overnight despite his family's opposition. Through the opening of a green channel in coordination with Dongguan, on February 16, the first batch of 358 poor people from Zhenxiong returned to Dongguan for employment.
Because of his excellent work, Zhenxiong was transferred back to the Daniel Zhang at the end of March and promoted him to deputy secretary of the party committee and political and legal committee member of Yuhe Town.

In order to achieve "point-to-point" employment, on the demand side, we will focus on labor-intensive enterprises with high wages, good working environment, and excellent accommodation conditions, and strengthen post development reserves; on the supply side, establish a special responsibility system to find out the employment situation of poor households one by one.
