This means that, Quanzhou, the survival of traditional manufacturing industries have long been fully shake the foundation of cheap labor, industrial upgrading is imminent. On the other hand, in order to attract industrial workers, many companies have to accelerate the migration to the wealthier areas of human resources, the speed, the risk of urban industrial hollowing this further. How to make upgrading faster than the speed of hollow, Quanzhou has become an industry will be off a barrier.
【Reporter survey】 structural lack of work spread to the general lack of work
“The information came from Quanzhou labor department, the number of labor demand Festival spring rate of 160 million people, employment gap of at least 15 million people, business recruitment tension.”
“I’m only two days to hire a worker, hard.” Chatted about the recruitment of these days, Jinjiang Co., Ltd. TPU old Xie Zhi charge of recruitment of helpless look, “you can see, the candidates who No more than recruiting. “
It is 10 am yesterday, more than Jinjiangchendai bridge Ukraine, Uzbekistan bridge is the traditional job market in Jinjiang, because the pocket is located in the stream and the two sides in the middle of the village of professional footwear, is the major recruitment companies Chendai ” base. “
But in yesterday’s black bridge, the reporter saw the job site really lonely, because workers are not more candidates, many companies recruit intolerable “lonely,” McCain together have played a big mountain.
The same picture also appeared in Jinjiang, the labor market. Jinjiang labor market yesterday was the day held a job but the recruitment of journalists in the market area in the see, very few persons to come to candidates. Yu Weaving Co., Ltd. Jinjiang Hua Yan Wenming executive vice president, told reporters that although the staff rework the old weaving Arima rate of 90%, but because of business expansion this year, also need to recruit more than 100 workers, in accordance with the provisions of Arima, each old staff with new staff, you can get 1,000 cash prize, but even so, Arima is still more than a hundred of the employment gap, “It will be down several jobs, the effect is not good, very difficult to recruit people” .
Lukewarm job market this year, the perennial No. 16 in the labor market window for a deeper experience of recruiting Ho. According to him, compared to previous years, the labor market this year to workers looking for work at least cut in half.
Many days, the reporter contacted a cover textile, shoes, food, umbrellas, etc., more than 20 enterprises found that recruitment difficulties have become a consensus. The data came from official further confirmed the fact: the labor department’s information came from Quanzhou, Spring Festival the number of enterprises and employment needs of 160 million people, employment gap of at least 15 million people, business recruitment situation is tense. In footwear, apparel and other labor-intensive enterprises, the employees greater mobility in the industry, still need to add new staff over 60% of total employment.
The difference is that in previous years, since last year, the spring rate has been a structural shortage of labor shortage of workers to the spread of universal lack of work, years before, because salary levels were higher prices, better employment environment, there is no move is not to the workers, the shortage of labor issues mainly in those small and medium enterprises, but with many leading companies since last year, a large expansion of production capacity, these were enterprises also face labor problems.
Press information available shows that as of 2009 and spring 2010 after a wave of public enterprises in 2011 to become the “not bad money,” listed companies in capacity expansion. 2011, special steps (China) Co., Ltd. Quanzhou plant will be 4,000 people in the existing scale, based on the new 1500. 361 degrees (China) Co., Ltd. Wuli Industrial Park, with the commissioning in the year, plans to add 2,000 people. The information available shows a reporter, Jordan, Lee Lang, flying grams, blessed with the number of wolves and other enterprises are in the hundreds of new employment or more.
On the one hand is the company the amount of capacity expansion made a number of labor demand, on the other hand is a reduction in supply of workers. Xtep (China) Co., Ltd. Liu, vice president of the first that with the development of central and western China, have chosen to remain the original rural labor out of employment or business, together with non-standard employment before the number of SMEs to some extent distorted Quanzhou the overall image of the enterprise, making the total number of employees to spring a decrease increase. At the same time, companies originally showed an aging workforce and stable trend, while the new generation of 80, 90 migrant workers after the work of the traditional business model a single identity is weak, resulting in actual business less and less available human resources.
【Company】 labor costs have been reflected in approaching a “tipping point”
“For such a labor-intensive enterprises, low profitability, once the labor costs account for 15% of the total cost, companies continue to maintain very difficult. But in fact, the proportion of labor costs and now the industry has been approaching 10%. “
General lack of work in the background, the salary increase to become the first of many companies resorted to magic. According to report, it is also facing recruitment problems, but the industrial structure, those high energy consumption, low profits, low-income sector employees, a recruitment difficult enterprise, and better treatment of the enterprise, significantly rework Festival higher. According to Yan Wenming introduction, Arima weaving was able to obtain a higher rework rates, it has benefited their businesses to the old staff out of the high treatment. The reporter’s job weaving from Arima saw leaflets, the company’s monthly wage skilled workers were more than 3,500 yuan, and even new employees, the wages of the trial period there are 2,000 yuan.
But even companies like weaving Arima, under the pressure of the recruitment difficulties, it had to again raise the wage levels of employees. According to Yan Wenming, this year, Arima weaving in the range of about 10% salary increase.
At the press access to many companies, Arima weaving is the lowest salary increase rate a business. Chen Tai Wu Bridge reporter visited more than 10 companies, general public most of the minimum wage security at the end of 1600 yuan or more, compared to previous years, or are in the 200 yuan, while some enterprises the wages of a single procedure or even more than 50% gain Overall, this year, most enterprises have more than 20% wage increase.
Greatly raises the pressure on the company is self-evident, Yebao Assistant Zheng Meifen chairman, told reporters in the shoes and apparel industries, the proportion of labor costs in previous years and more concentrated in the 8% to 12%, and brands lower , about 5% to 8%, but after 2010 “salary years”, the proportion of improved greatly in recent years the lack of strikes, labor costs of the whole industry is basically a ratio of 30% per year increase . “Our company’s current labor costs accounted for 13.5%,” more than in 2004 nearly doubled.
Services in the textile industry for many years, Mr. Zhou told reporters that the textile industry in the era of low wages, that is, before 2004, labor costs will be about 7% of the total cost, while the 2009 and 2010, many companies often pay to know, for this labor-intensive enterprises, lower profit margins, labor costs accounted for if 15% of the total cost, companies continue to maintain very difficult. But in fact, the proportion of labor costs now the industry has been approaching 10%.
Obviously, different companies can afford the labor costs of “critical point” vary, but the labor cost growth, the erosion of corporate profits is obvious. Quanzhou, a public listed company statements show, the first three quarters of the company’s revenue more than 260 million yuan, but only 8.34 million yuan net profit. Employees of the company over a thousand, a conservative estimate, this year, each worker is 300 yuan per month salary increase, the first three quarters, only a salary increase, the company’s net profit would have decreased nearly 300 million.
【Warning】 Quanzhou manufacturing experts will have the Hom
“Quanzhou pace of industrial upgrading will have to be running with the hollow, Quanzhou, the labor shortage is forcing many companies have to speed up the move into the speed.”
There are indications that a new round of labor shortage will be upgrading again for Quanzhou, far-reaching implications. Fujian Huaqiao University College of Business Administration Business Research Center Lv Qinghua that the labor shortage caused by a substantial salary increase a demographic dividend clear end of the era, the end of the era of cheap labor, cheap labor is also a model of economic development supported by the end of Quanzhou.
Lv Qinghua that, like Guangdong and Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Quanzhou, largely based on the manufacturing sector’s prosperity on the basis of cheap labor and lack of transformation of power. In fact, appeared in 2004, “Labor Shortage”, has been on the spring rate is a warning, but was still a good external environment, Quanzhou, manufacturing has not yet developed to the extent not in transition will be difficult. The economic crisis in 2008, making 2009 the year after entering the new century, the most difficult year, when a large number of business failures, the transition became a lot of people mention of words. Unfortunately, when the economy started to recover, some companies are dying to re-order, get through the most difficult times, but once again the “transformation” word off my back.
Experts believe that this year’s “labor shortage” again sounded the alarm for these enterprises.
“Labor shortage” to promote enterprises must improve their workers to hire people; In order to guarantee profits, increased labor costs, companies can only be the only option is to increase value-added products, or increase the mechanical operation, reducing the number of employment, both forcing companies to upgrade technology, which will gradually promote the manufacturing industry in Quanzhou upgrade.
At the same time, the speed of Quanzhou industrial upgrading will have to be running with the hollow, Quanzhou, the labor shortage is forcing many companies have to speed up the move into speed. February 13, Suzhou City, Anhui Province, a heavyweight investment group “Airborne” Quanzhou, started lobbying for a number of spring rate; fact, in recent months, similar to the investment group, Quanzhou Shi Textile and Apparel Association is planting the Secretary-General has received no less than 10. In his words, unlike in previous years, local investment corporations and service enterprises in Quanzhou is slowly spun by the “unrequited love” to “sexual gratification” from last year, a number of textile and garment enterprises had frequently collective In central study area, the layout for the expansion of finding the right places.
Inland also accelerated from the textile and garment industry spread to other areas. It is understood that starting this year, including special steps, Casey is also coincidentally the dragon shoe factory opened in the province. Zhao, chairman of the Green River Group, it seems, it is difficult for many enterprises to speed up recruitment outward expansion of the reason, “only less and less workers in Quanzhou, and now we can only abundant labor resources to the areas of expansion.”
Of course, speed up the move into the enterprise, further aggravated the hollow Quanzhou industry concerns, Quanzhou Development Research Centre, told reporters before the headquarters of many famous enterprises have already moved to Xiamen and other places, and now, the manufacturing sector also accelerated relocation of the field, Quanzhou, traditional manufacturing industries will therefore increasingly difficult situation, there may be as hollow as the Taiwan issue. “The hard reality of employment how to accelerate the pace of industrial upgrading, how to beat the hollow, it will be Quanzhou create a hurdle to be crossed.”

Since the employment problem has become a spring rate head of the “magic” and how “Jiji”, always a headache; and Quanzhou manufacturing transition pressure is also haunting.
