Shoe enterprises

Wang Muchun, a human resource manager, was injured recently, and he was wounded by an earthquake rumor.

During the period before August 13th, the shoe manufacturers gradually lost two production lines and seven hundred or eight hundred front-line production workers. They either asked for leave or resigned.

There is only one reason. They have heard a news that there will be a great earthquake in Quanzhou in August 13th.

"This is simply nonsense, and the government quickly refutes the rumor, but it can not stop the pace of workers' leaving," Wang Muchun said.

The order for this enterprise is on the rise in the coming season of "golden nine silver ten" sales.

At this time, the tide of workers running away is undoubtedly self cutting capacity.

"The boss is meeting three times a day, and our department is under great pressure," Wang Muchun said.

Where Wang Muchun is

enterprise

The situation is more common in Quanzhou.

Fu Helin, deputy general manager of Jinjiang Jincheng Ceramics Co., Ltd., told the China Securities Journal reporter that many enterprises have seen such a situation. Some enterprises have a relatively high degree of their native place, and their employees are even gone.

Jincheng ceramics also showed signs of workers leaving, "fortunately, after education, the situation is relatively stable," Fu Helin said.

The workers left the tide caused by the earthquake rumours were also confirmed in the local pportation department.

Jinjiang long-distance station staff on duty in an interview with reporters, said that the recent fare to Jiangxi has increased by 50%, the class is full.

Pan Yanyan, deputy mayor of Quanzhou, pointed out in the local TV program that the earthquake was a rumor, and it was done by some people with ulterior motives in other provinces. Its purpose is to grab workers in Quanzhou.

Local police also quickly investigated and arrested a rumor from other provinces.

"Robbing workers to use the earthquake is really an ulterior motive," Wang Muchun said. "This year's employment situation is really unsettled."

During the Spring Festival this year, the local labor shortage in Quanzhou was highly concerned by the media.

According to statistics, the employment gap reached 150 thousand at that time.

The government and enterprises have been recruiting workers and improving their treatment. After May, the employment situation has improved.

However, an insider familiar with the situation told the China Securities Journal reporter that employment is really scarce this year.

Operating rate

In fact, only sixty or seventy of the situation in the field is almost the same. Finally, there is no need for it to grab any tricks.

Contrary to the employment situation is the local order data.

Textile and garment industry is the pillar industry of Quanzhou export. According to Quanzhou customs statistics, in the first half of 2010, Quanzhou exported 1 billion 342 million dollars of textile shoes and clothing, an increase of 52.52% over the same period last year.

Entering the July, the export of textile shoes and clothing has maintained steady growth, and export enterprises have been fully engaged in production.

Zhang Xiangqian, deputy director of Human Resources Department of Huaqiao University, said that the growth of order data has been inversely proportional to the employment situation. Enterprises should make preparations for this.

Aforementioned insiders also said that some enterprises lack an effective long-term mechanism in terms of welfare benefits. When the shortage of labor comes to mind, they think of wage increase and performance bonus, and employees do not have a sense of belonging and identity.

Zhang stressed that due to the rapid economic development in the mainland, the gap between the mainland and the coastal areas is shrinking.

"For migrant workers, the doorway can also make money. Why do we run so far?" Zhang Xiangqian said.

August 13th has passed safely, and rumors have been destroyed.

But Wang Muchun's pressure is still going on.

"Staff turnover, production still need to be continued, or ways to recruit people."

Wang Muchun said.

He has applied to the boss for a plan to recruit people outside the province. How much can he recruit?
