1. Realizing "more full social employment" is one of the goals of building a well-off society in an all-round way.

The 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has determined the line, principles and policies for building a well-off society in an all-round way in the next five years, and regards employment as one of the six major tasks to accelerate the improvement of people's livelihood. The goal of building a well-off society in an all-round way is put forward, the development strategy of expanding employment is established and implemented, and eight measures to promote employment through entrepreneurship are implemented, which points out the direction for further improving employment and re-employment under the new situation.

After the promulgation of the Employment Promotion Law, 26 provincial-level leading cadres published special articles in People's Daily, Workers' Daily, Labor and Social Security Newspaper and other media, making commitments to the government's employment promotion work. At the same time, further implement the target responsibility system, give full play to the role of the joint conference system for promoting employment, and strengthen and improve the coordination mechanism of various departments under the leadership of the government. In February, china association of employment promotion held the China Employment Mayor Forum in Chengdu, Sichuan. Mayors from 50 cities across the country issued an initiative to the managers of all cities in China, earnestly fulfilling the important responsibilities of the government to promote employment and control unemployment, conscientiously implementing the Employment Promotion Law, and making unremitting efforts to build a harmonious city with more full employment, happy people and stable and prosperous society.

Dong Keyong: One of the goals of economic policies of governments all over the world is full employment, and it is the unshirkable responsibility of governments to promote employment. The promises of mayors are very encouraging, and I hope that every city will have more specific measures.

Tian: The people's government keeps its promise. People are happy and society is harmonious.

M: Employment is a worldwide topic and an eternal and arduous task for governments all over the world. Looking at the programs or declarations of political parties running for heads of state or government in various countries, or observing the programs or ideas of successive governments in various countries, it is not difficult to find that they all put the employment issue in an extremely important position in their respective election or ruling programs. Of course, there are elements to please the people and strive for public opinion, but more importantly, we all realize that employment is not only a major event involving economic development, political stability and social harmony, but also a solid foundation for promoting personal career development, which is related to the vital interests of thousands of households and the improvement of national productivity and competitiveness. Since employment is so important, if any candidate or ruler dares to take employment seriously again, he is either an idiot, asking for trouble or failing. !

Since ancient times, there has been a saying in China that "food is the most important thing for the people", which means that the problem of people's eating is a huge thing and must be solved first. The key to solving this important task is to effectively solve the problem of people's full employment. According to the experience at home and abroad, the Employment Promotion Law more fully lists the realization of social employment as an important task and assessment goal of the government at or above the county level in China, and determines it in the form of law, which has great practical and historical significance.

After the promulgation of the Employment Promotion Law, 26 leading cadres at the provincial level published special articles in People's Daily, Workers' Daily, Labor and Social Security Newspaper and other media, making a solemn commitment on how the government can fulfill the responsibility of promoting employment, and said that in order to further implement this target responsibility system, it is necessary to give full play to the role of the joint meeting system for promoting employment, strengthen the consultation mechanism among various departments under the leadership of the government, and further improve the existing policies and measures for promoting employment. Mayors of 50 cities across the country also said a few days ago that they should earnestly fulfill the important responsibilities of the government to promote employment and control unemployment. I hope that with the implementation of the two laws, these promises and statements will become a reality one by one.

6. The special activity of employment service has become the brand of labor and social security department serving the people, which is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and has achieved remarkable results.

"Re-employment Assistance Action" will be launched during the two festivals, "Spring Breeze Action" will be launched at the peak of migrant workers' job hunting after the Spring Festival, "Private Enterprise Recruitment Week" will be launched in the peak season of private enterprise recruitment in May, and special service week will be launched in September when college graduates are concentrated in employment, so as to grasp the concentrated demand of workers for job hunting and realize policy implementation and humanized service through special actions, and take targeted measures to solve the employment problem of workers. At the same time, special funds were used to promote the training of migrant workers, improve the employment stability of migrant workers and make new progress.

Dong Keyong: The service-oriented government has been more fully reflected in the labor field.

Tian: Special service warms people's hearts. Establish brand and pay attention to actual effect.

Ma: Public employment service agencies are carriers to implement government employment policies and help job seekers, especially vulnerable groups, achieve employment. Public employment service agencies in the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Japan and other countries attach great importance to the innovation and accumulation of employment service methods and experience when providing free and high-quality services to job seekers. Over the years, they have innovated and accumulated effective service modes such as "one-stop service", "personalized service", "tracking service" and "special service".

On the basis of learning from foreign beneficial experience, Pei Jiu Division of the Ministry of Labor and Social Security put forward "Re-employment Assistance Action" in two periods, "Spring Breeze Action" in the peak period of migrant workers' job hunting after the Spring Festival, "Private Enterprise Recruitment Week" in the peak season of private enterprises in May, and special service week for concentrated employment of college graduates in September. When carrying out these special actions, all localities can firmly grasp the relatively concentrated job-seeking needs of workers, timely allocate special funds, and provide targeted humanized services. Through the close combination of the special action of employment service and the usual employment service activities, the service quality and efficiency of public employment service institutions have been solidly improved, and a good service brand image and popularity have been established. This kind of effective measure proved by practice should be institutionalized, standardized and persisted for a long time.

7. Technical school grants and subsidies for high-skilled personnel pave the way for the growth of skilled personnel.

Promote the cooperation between national technical schools and enterprises, and accelerate the training of highly skilled personnel. The state has included high-skilled talents in the scope of special government subsidies, and selected 400 people every two years, enriching and perfecting the policy of high-skilled talents. At the same time, rural students in technical schools and students with poor families in cities and towns will be given a subsidy of 1.500 yuan per student per year. These policies and measures will play a positive incentive role in accelerating the training of highly skilled personnel.

Dong Keyong: High-skilled talents are the key to the sustainable development of China's economy and the improvement of its international competitiveness. Accelerating the cultivation of highly skilled personnel is the most important strategic move.

Tian: Skilled talents are the wealth of the country. Cultivate incentive mechanism and policy guarantee.

Ma: Today, with the further acceleration of economic globalization, the strength competition between countries is, in the final analysis, the competition for talents. Therefore, many competitive countries regard the cultivation of highly skilled talents as the strategy of strengthening the country, and have formulated relatively perfect training systems and funding plans for this purpose. For example, the well-known dual-track training system in Germany, the loan training system in the United States and Canada and so on.

On the basis of learning from international experience and combining with China's national conditions, China lost no time in implementing the cooperation system between technical schools and enterprises to speed up the cultivation of highly skilled personnel. At the same time, the state also includes high-skilled talents in the scope of enjoying special government subsidies, and gives subsidies of 1.500 yuan per student per year to rural students in technical schools and students with poor families in cities and towns. These incentive policies and measures will greatly promote the cultivation of high-skilled talents in China. We will continue to implement and constantly improve these policies and measures, and unswervingly stick to them for a long time.

8. Strengthen the cultivation and standardization of the human resources market and promote fair employment.

The Employment Promotion Law integrates the existing labor market, talent market, graduate employment market and other markets to form a unified, open and competitive human resources market in the country, and clearly stipulates that workers are not discriminated against because of nationality, race, gender and religious beliefs. Disabled people, carriers of infectious diseases and farmers who work in cities enjoy equal labor rights with other workers. At the same time, it is clearly required to strengthen the management of human resources market and standardize the market order, which laid the foundation for the formation of an equal employment system for urban and rural workers.

Dong Keyong: Only a standardized human resources market can realize the effective allocation of human resources and protect the rights and interests of workers.

Tian: Unified market and orderly competition; Fair employment and elimination of discrimination.

Ma: In order to integrate the existing labor market, talent market and employment market for college graduates into a national unified, open and competitive human resources market, the Employment Promotion Law has made special provisions and listed them as the legal responsibilities of governments at or above the county level.

It is extremely arduous and arduous to establish a unified, open and competitive human resources market in China. Because to achieve this goal, we must completely break the dual structure of urban and rural labor market division in China, fundamentally integrate the urban employment service system managed by different departments at present, and break the interests of departments; It is also necessary to carry out supporting and interrelated major reforms in the household registration system, administrative management system, legal system and financial system. Obviously, this kind of reform is not an easy or overnight thing. However, from the demand direction of further reforming and perfecting China's market economic system construction and labor employment system, this is the only way. There is no other way. Therefore, in the process of establishing a unified, open and competitive human resources market in China, we must be prepared for a protracted war and a tough battle.

The meanings of the two words "human resource market" and "labor market" are different in the occasion, scope or target of ILO. The former is mostly aimed at the micro level, while the latter refers to the relationship between labor supply and demand and the change and mechanism of wages and prices at the macro and meso levels. I think the term "human resource market" used in the Employment Promotion Law should be understood or regarded as the meaning of "labor market" commonly used in international and international labor organizations.

The Employment Promotion Law clearly stipulates fair employment in the form of a special chapter, which sets the banner of prohibiting employment discrimination in China. This is a bright spot and a milestone progress in promoting social peace and justice in China and realizing fairness and justice in employment and career opportunities in China.

Achieving employment equity and striving for social justice are lofty goals pursued by human society. But whether this goal can be achieved and to what extent depends on a country's economic and social development level, the relationship between supply and demand in the labor market, the overall quality of workers and their employment concept. At present, although China's economic growth is relatively fast, it is difficult to change the pattern of labor supply exceeding demand in a short time because of China's abundant labor resources, and the employment situation is under great pressure because of the complicated situation of newly increased labor employment, the transfer of agricultural surplus labor and the re-employment of unemployed people in economic restructuring. In this grim employment situation, employment or occupational discrimination is everywhere in China, and the types of discrimination are varied, including discrimination caused by ethnic, racial, gender, religious beliefs and other factors; There are also employment or occupational discrimination caused by disability, infectious pathogens, and even identity, name, genus, height and other reasons.

Faced with such severe employment pressure and discrimination, how can we really reduce and gradually eliminate employment or occupational discrimination? The general experience in the world is that apart from the principled provisions made by the national constitution, labor law or other superior laws, it is necessary to make special legislation for certain employment or occupational discrimination and establish special mechanisms or institutions to deal with employment or occupational discrimination. For example, the United States has anti-sex discrimination law, anti-age discrimination law and anti-disability discrimination law. , and there is an Employment Equality Committee that specializes in dealing with discrimination in employment or occupation. Countries such as Britain, France and Japan also have special legislation or full-time processing institutions in this regard. But even in these countries, discrimination in employment or occupation has not been eradicated. For example, in the United States, the phenomenon of different pay for equal work between men and women is still widespread.

Although in real life, no country has completely eliminated employment or occupational discrimination, it is necessary to prohibit it in the legal sense. China's Employment Promotion Law, based on the experience of international legislation against employment or occupational discrimination, sets a special chapter for prohibiting employment or occupational discrimination in China, creates a social environment or public opinion atmosphere for opposing and prohibiting employment or occupational discrimination in China, and lays a solid foundation for further formulating China's regulations on promoting fair employment and implementing rules against employment or occupational discrimination.

9 to carry out the first national labor brand exhibition and exchange and selection and commendation activities.

From June 5, 2007 to 10, the first national labor brand exhibition, exchange, selection and commendation activity was held in Zhengzhou under the guidance of the Ministry of Labor and Social Security and the People's Government of Henan Province, hosted by china association of employment promotion and undertaken by the Department of Labor and Social Security of Henan Province. With the theme of "Labor Brand: Quality, Management and Quality", nearly 300 labor brands and employment service brands participated in the exhibition, and hundreds of representatives from large and medium-sized enterprises and human resources institutions attended the meeting to discuss labor cooperation. Exhibition has a positive impact on promoting labor export, developing labor economy and promoting the transfer of agricultural surplus labor.

Dong Keyong said: "Knowledge is power". In the information age, the exchange of information and the dissemination of experience are equally powerful.

Tian: Labor brand, quality first. Labor economy, brand opening.

Ma: Building and cultivating labor brands is an important way to promote the rational flow of labor, promote overseas employment, develop labor economic cooperation and promote the transfer of rural surplus labor.

Compared with commodity brands, the task of cultivating labor brands is more arduous and complicated, and more energy and time need to be invested. This is because, in addition to the quality, reputation and cultural characteristics of commodity brands, labor brands also need to provide basic elements such as professional skills, foreign language ability, communication and cooperation ability with people, serious and responsible work attitude and sincere, civilized and polite way of treating others. In addition, because the carriers of labor brands are living people with life and feelings, they not only provide labor services for employers, families or individuals, but also have the need to safeguard their own lives and dignity and to continue and support future generations.

At present, many famous labor brands have been formed in the domestic labor market, such as Baoji Technician, Huisi Blue-collar, Luxi Manpower, Hubei Seafarer, Jingchu Sewing Woman, Jilin Security, etc. There are also many well-known international labor brands that enjoy a high reputation and are very popular in the international labor market. Among them, the most famous are Filipino domestic workers (commonly known as Filipino maids), Filipino seafarers, Filipino nurses, Indian computer engineers, Indian doctors, British English teachers and so on.

With the theme of "labor brand: quality, management and quality", the first national labor brand exhibition, exchange, selection and commendation activity held in Zhengzhou was a complete success. Nearly 300 labor service brands and employment service brands participated in the exhibition, and representatives of hundreds of large and medium-sized enterprises and human resources institutions participated in the exhibition and held labor cooperation talks. I hope this kind of exhibition can form its own brand and be held every one or two years. I believe it will have a positive impact on the formation, cultivation and development of labor brands.

10. The Asian Employment Forum with the theme of "Growth, Employment and Decent Work" was successfully held in Beijing.

The Asian Employment Forum hosted by the International Labour Organization and undertaken by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security was successfully held in Beijing from August 3, 2003 to August 4, 2004. Ministers of labor and representatives of employers and workers from 22 Asian countries and regions, representatives of the International Labour Organization and other relevant international institutions attended the meeting. The meeting exchanged policies and experience measures for promoting employment in Asian countries. China's achievements and practical experience in implementing the active employment policy have been highly praised by the International Labour Organization and representatives of various countries. The Asia Forum has further strengthened the exchanges and cooperation between China and Asian countries in the field of employment and expanded China's influence in the international community.

Dong Keyong: China's successful experience in the field of employment can and should benefit people all over the world.

Tian: China is employed, leading in Asia; Experienced and world-renowned.

Ma: The Asian Employment Forum sponsored by the International Labour Organization and undertaken by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security was successfully held in Beijing from August 6, 2003 to August 6, 2004. Hundreds of labor ministers, representatives of employers and workers, representatives of the International Labour Organization and other relevant international institutions from 22 countries and regions in Asia attended the meeting.

Among the international conferences sponsored by the International Labour Organization, apart from the annual International Labour Conference, regional conferences are larger. The Asian Employment Forum is an important regional conference with high specifications, large scale and many topics. State Councilor Hua Jianmin of China and Director-General Somavia of the International Labour Organization made opening speeches respectively. Tian Chengping, Minister of Labor and Social Security of China, delivered a keynote speech entitled "Expanding employment opportunities, safeguarding employment rights and interests, and striving to build a harmonious socialist society" at the opening ceremony. The forum consists of plenary session, round table and special session. * * * Twenty-two ministers of labor, 27 representatives of trade unions and employers' organizations and experts from Asia-Pacific countries spoke at the meeting. The topics discussed include: looking forward to the ten-year plan of decent work in Asia-sustainable growth and employment opportunities by 20 15; Employment creation and poverty reduction policies; Sustainable productivity and competitiveness of decent work; Fair and effective labor market mechanisms and policies; As well as the informal economy and employment. Participants discussed and exchanged policies and experiences of Asian countries to promote employment, and went to Tianjin to inspect and observe the implementation of active employment policy projects in Tianjin Employment Service Center and Vocational Training Center, and spoke highly of the fruitful achievements and accumulated practical experience in implementing active employment policy in China.

The Asian Employment Forum was held in China mainly because the organizer, the International Labour Organization, attached great importance to and appreciated China's active employment policy and its achievements in recent years. I hope this meeting will provide an opportunity for representatives from other Asian countries to listen to and watch China's employment promotion practice in person, and play the role of on-site experience exchange. The results of the meeting show that the Asian Employment Forum has successfully completed its tasks and achieved its expected goals. At the same time, it has further strengthened the exchanges and cooperation between China and Asian countries in the field of employment, and expanded China's influence in the international community.

Second, the five major events of local innovation

1. Innovating mechanism to create full employment community.

On the basis of summing up the pilot experience, all localities have focused on solving the employment problems of zero-employment families and people with employment difficulties, adopted various effective measures, and comprehensively promoted the construction of full-employment communities with the development of community employment as the main line. By the end of the year, more than 654.38+00000 communities in China have taken the lead in meeting the standards of full employment communities in provinces and cities, and the proportion of communities that meet the standards in some areas has reached 50% of the total number of communities.

Dong Keyong: A harmonious community is the foundation of a harmonious society, and full employment in the community is the basic guarantee for building a harmonious community.

Tian: Innovating the employment mechanism, exploring and accumulating experience to promote it in the practice of creating a fully employed community, so as to achieve the goal of more full employment.
