In Ningbo, Zhejiang, the export volume from January to February this year was 111.4 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 53.4%. The prosperous foreign trade import and export industry has brought sufficient orders to many companies in Ningbo, but it has also caused considerable pressure on corporate employment
In the textile, clothing, machinery and other industries, some companies face the risk of being unable to complete orders in time due to labor shortages, which may lead to the loss of orders.
In Juexi Street, Xiangshan County, Ningbo City, there are more than 500 large and small knitting companies gathered. The current labor gap in the entire knitting industry is as high as about 20%. The situation in the machinery manufacturing industry is not optimistic either. At a sensor manufacturer in Jiangbei District, Ningbo, orders have increased by about 40% this year. Currently, there is a shortage of more than 40 people in technical jobs such as fitters and lathes.
700 a day and still can’t recruit anyone
The clothing factory owner queued for 3 kilometers waiting to be picked by the workers
On a 3-kilometer-long path, there are many garment factory owners looking for workers. They held various clothing samples and held up signs waiting for passing workers to choose.
Li, the person in charge of a garment factory in Guangzhou, Guangdong Ms.: In the past, factories chose workers, but now workers choose bosses. Now, the post-90s and post-00s generation will no longer learn this.
If you need a flat lathe with more complex technology, Ironing workers are even more difficult to find and the wages are higher.
The person in charge of recruiting workers at a garment factory in Guangzhou, Guangdong: Some parking space workers have not yet come out. Those who come out charge a high price to do it. One person costs at least 700 yuan a day, usually 300 to 400 yuan. There is nothing you can do if you are in a hurry, no one will do it.
A recruitment manager said that workers generally After the Lantern Festival, people gradually returned to the city in large numbers, so in the past few days, there have been more bosses than workers.
The person in charge of recruitment of a garment factory in Guangzhou, Guangdong: Business is good in the first one or two months of the year, but after the first two months, business is no longer good, and there are too many goods. When there is a shortage of goods, it is difficult to recruit people. When there is a shortage of goods, there are too many people working there.
At noon, the entire Kangle Street has been It was packed with recruiters and applicants. Mr. Li is an ironing worker who has worked nearby for more than ten years. He told reporters that although the bosses offer high salaries, they require extremely long overtime work to get them.
Applicant worker Mr. Li: The more you work, the more you get. There is no job in the garment industry that is not tiring. Every type of work is tiring. We work seventeen or eight hours a day. , I can earn more than 20,000 yuan without sleeping.
Not only is the resumption of work after the holiday,
Textile and garment enterprises have “recruitment difficulties” again
This Spring Festival is a little different this year. Under the call to “Celebrate the New Year on the spot”, many non-local employees of companies stayed in Keqiao to celebrate the New Year. At the same time, home textile companies, printing and dyeing companies, and weaving companies still have many orders for the year. They are optimistic about the market this year and have quickly resumed work and production in the past few days. Home textile companies, in particular, have been bucking the trend since the second half of last year. Many companies have decided to expand production capacity this year, and labor demand has surged.
After a few days of visits, I found that Keqiao is now The employment situation in the textile industry has seen an “ice and fire” scene: on one side, there is a continued shortage of front-line workers and sales, making it difficult to recruit and retain employees; on the other side, some high-quality companies rely on various benefits and considerate arrangements to not only retain old employees, but also attract New employees came to the company on their own initiative, creating a gratifying situation where there were no worries about employment.
Conclusion: The difficulty in recruiting and retaining workers in the textile industry is not new to this year. The owner of a garment factory said: “Employees are the company’s precious wealth. You can use your true feelings to Treat your employees, and they will repay you with sincerity.” The same is true behind companies that have no worries about employment. Behind competitive salaries, good corporate culture and corporate care can make companies even more powerful in recruiting employees.
