By the beginning of 2020, no one expected this sudden epidemic to put a ban on free travel for a while. With the resumption of production in late February and early March, China has gradually restored most of its capacity. At present, the focus of the textile and garment industry is nothing more than the lack of improvement in the popularity of overseas, whether to export to domestic sales, how the crude oil market trends are confusing, how to affect the polyester industry and how to participate in international trade. Downstream weaving industry.

However, the fundamental development of every industry is closely related to human resources. In recent years, with the increase of family labor costs, many labor-intensive enterprises have encountered difficulties in employment and have sought suitable labor through various channels.

According to the latest news from Changjiang Evening News, the head of the production workshop of a textile factory in Jiangning discovered that the new batch of workers in the factory were actually Vietnamese, organized by an employment agent named Li Mou. They steal across the border and enter China to play "black work". What is the reason? It is understood that in May 2015, there was a labor shortage in a textile factory in Jiangning. They communicate with labor by Posting information on the Internet and other methods, so they have the following purposes.

I've encountered a similar reality around me. Recently, reporters from the global textile network came to the logistics building of China Textile City. In the interview with Master Chen, he learned that the current staff of the textile factory has an aging trend, and there are often several young people. Went to work, but could not accept the hard environment and hard work, and left after a few months. Among textile enterprises in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, few locals are willing to work in factories, and migrant workers make up half of the country.

It is understood that on April 21, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security released the "Top 100 National Labor Shortages in the first quarter of 2020", "sewing workers", "spinners", "textile dyers" and "sewing workers". Mechanical assembly "debugger", "weaving work", "shoemaker", "cutter" are among the top 100 shortest professions in the country.

In addition to the above personal factors that cannot overcome the working environment and other factors that lead to the "labor shortage" in the textile and garment industry, the industry also holds the following views at the macro level.

First of all, the direction of public opinion determines that some novices do not contact the textile and clothing industry. The social concept of "first-class talent engaged in finance, second-rate talent engaged in real estate, third-rate talent engaged in business" makes everyone feel the impression that "dry industry is modest" and do not want to enter this industry, and the "newborn" who just left the campus would rather do real estate sales than enter the textile factory as a skilled worker.

Secondly, in the upstream of the textile industry, the demand for high-end technical talents is relatively high, and there is a shortage of high-end talents. Downstream, workers are looking for suitable labor due to the pressure of rising wage costs. There is a contradiction between the wages of workers and the increase in business profits.

Third, the textile and garment industry has moved from developed areas to some central provinces or less developed areas in developed provinces. Workers returned to their hometowns to re-establish stable employment opportunities, leading to labor shortages in textile and garment companies in developed regions.

Fourth, China's current "dual" urban and rural management system is based on "domestic management," placing the registered population and the floating population in two different management systems, each operating independently. Foreign workers are vulnerable groups in cities. They basically cannot enjoy the right of residence, employment, education, medical care and other rights linked to household registration at the same time, but they also lack the right to speak. Portrayal. Because of this barrier to family registration thresholds, individuals are unable to find a sense of belonging in their urban homes and are confined to the fringes of the city. This is simply the root cause of the "labor shortage" system.

The employment difficulties in the textile and garment industry are actually a microcosm of the entire manufacturing industry. There used to be a "Labour shortage". How to solve this stubborn root cause and inject fresh blood into the textile and garment industry in 2020 and beyond is also imperative.
