China bothered by labor shortage
www.chinanews.cn 2007-05-21 09:06:53
Chinanews, Beijing, May 21 �C Labor shortage problem, which used to occur
in coastal areas, has now spread to the middle and western regions in
China. In some industrial sectors, there is not only insufficient supply
of technicians, even grassroot workers also fall short of supply. An
insider said that as China's fast growing economy has absorbed the
surplus labor, China��s labor market has taken a fundamental change, CCTV
international channel reported.
In a recent visit to Guangdong Province, this reporter saw that many
factories had posted hiring information, such as ��a large number of
grassroot workers needed,�� ��grassroot workers urgently needed,�� ��we
are hiring a large number of female grassroot workers,�� etc.
Mr. Wang has been working in a job firm in Shenzhen for ten years now. In
the past, what concerned him most was how to find as many orders as
possible. But now, he worries about how to find enough people to fill the
orders.
According to Mr. Wang, his company��s customers come from 5,000
manufacturing companies in Shenzhen. In the past, due to a surplus labor
situation, companies could usually find lots of workers available for
use. But now things have changed.
Shenzhen has large numbers of migrant workers in China. In Shenzhen, more
than 10 million migrant workers come from other places to find jobs.
Not only in Shenzhen, the labor shortage problem has also occurred in
other economically developed cities, such as Shanghai, Suzhou, Hangzhou
and Nanjing, where large numbers of workers are needed. Among all kinds
of jobs that meet labor shortage problem, over half do not require high
technical skills. These include sewers, waiters or waitresses,
salespeople, security guards, storage and transport workers, and printing
and dyeing workers.
Information shows that the labor supply and demand situation has changed
greatly in the Pearl River Delta Region and the Yangtze River Delta
Region. In the past, there might be surplus labor supply, but now such
supply might be barely sufficient. In some sectors, there might not be
enough workers to meet employers�� demand. The labor market is no longer
a buyer��s market.
