The unemployment rate of young people on the mainland continues to soar.
Official data shows that in addition to the employment pressure of college students, the demand for front-line blue-collar and skilled workers among young people exceeds the supply, which is also one of the important reasons for the rise in unemployment.
However, this explanation has sparked fierce controversy among netizens. Because some people believe that young people are not as "high-eyed and low-handed" and "arrogant" as the official says, but that they are discouraged by the poor factory environment and low income.
They pointed out that apart from those sitting in the office, which front-line worker does not work more than 60 hours a week?
With meager wages and no compensation for overtime, how can such treatment attract young people?
Some netizens also raised the issue of "identity discrimination".
They pointed out that employees of large enterprises such as China Power Grid and China Tobacco have high wages and good benefits, but it is difficult for ordinary young people to enter.
This kind of "identity discrimination" under the trading of power and money has left a large number of promising young people out of reach.
In addition to the problems of the factory environment and treatment, the education sector is also to blame.
Therefore, the education sector should pay more attention to vocational education and skills training to improve the skills level and employability of young people, thereby alleviating the problem of rising unemployment.
In summary, the problem of rising youth unemployment is not the result of a single factor, but the result of a combination of factors.
At this time, a sensible netizen asked a thought-provoking question:
"Why does our education tend to shape the same talent?"
At present, many colleges and universities are caught in the dilemma of narrow knowledge fields and single vocational skills, which undoubtedly exacerbates the urgency of reform.
In fact, this storm of public opinion about the plight of young people in employment is actually only a microcosm of the structural contradictions on the mainland.
Simply attributing the problem to the subjective factor of the individual obviously fails to get to the heart of the problem.
Looking back at the 90s, being able to work in a factory was something to be proud of for most families. But as time goes on, people seem to be becoming more and more picky about their job choices.
Epilogue:
The times are different, in the past, there was a shortage of materials, if you didn't work hard, it was really difficult for you to live a good life, but now the materials are extremely abundant. Why do you have to work so hard to get better things in other ways? And it's really a bit strange that the factories are now. Let's take the factories I interviewed around me, the ones I went to were all mechanical, and they opened their mouths and closed their mouths about high-level workers. But they simply don't know. Also as a major manufacturing country, Germany and Japan, have 30% and 40% of their senior workers, while the mainland only has 5%. If you multiply this ratio by the number of people in the country, I will do a general calculation. There are 70 million high-ranking workers on the mainland, and if they are distributed to more than 30 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the central government, including the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps. On average, how many people can be obtained in each place? More than 2.06 million. If you break it down, what if you assign it to each prefecture-level city, which has just over 7,000 people. This statement is not very correct, but enterprises are competing for people, but there are only so many resources, and they have to compete with other enterprises, how much can be grabbed? How much can be retained after three months? Let's go back to overtime. Mainland labor law clearly stipulates an eight-hour workday, but there will still be overtime. Overtime is a sign of inefficiency, and any entrepreneur knows it, but they don't know how to use those eight hours effectively. A truly smart entrepreneur will allocate tasks effectively and reasonably according to the priority of the tasks and the capabilities of each department of the enterprise, and arrange the work schedule. When and what to arrange, it is clear and makes full use of the eight hours, but they don't understand. Can't do it either.
Those who have entered the express factory know that they get up at five o'clock in the morning to wash up and eat breakfast, and they can hardly see the sun. Work until 12 o'clock, punch in and eat, half an hour to eat. Then continue to work until 6 p.m. You can't sit and walk all day, and you have to apply for a travel card to drink water outside. Since the work is in a large tin warehouse, it is very stuffy. And it doesn't see sunlight for a day, so it can be said that it is completely insulated from light. By the way, the vacation is a rotational holiday, with an average of one or two days off per person per month. The salary is four thousand five, and there are five insurances and no gold. After a few days I ran away, and from then on I felt that the factory would always be the last resort, unless I was going to starve to death.
I think I may not have a mortgage, a car loan, a wife, children, parents and other places that need to spend a lot of money, so I can't hold on
