中国公司应对用工荒

中国公司应对用工荒1

Outside a factory in Dongguan, a city in China’s manufacturing heartlands, school buses drop off children whose parents work at the Maisto toy factory, which manufactures Bburago collectable cars and radio-controlled vehicles.

在中国制造业重镇——东莞市的一家工厂外，校车放下了一群孩子。这些孩子的父母就在这家美驰图(Maisto)玩具厂工作，生产比美高(Bburago)车模收藏品和遥控玩具车。

About 120 children live in dormitories on the factory site. About 40 per cent of Maisto’s 3,000 workers live with partners and children and some of the dormitories, designed for young single workers, are being revamped to make them more suitable for families.

住在厂区宿舍的孩子大约有120个。在美驰图的3000名员工中，约有40%与配偶和子女生活在一起，部分原本为年轻单身员工设计的宿舍正在翻修，以适合家庭居住。

If the toy factory is to retain workers in China’s new era of persistent labour shortages, then this kind of investment is necessary, says manager Michael Liu.

工厂经理Michael Liu表示，中国已进入劳动力持续紧缺的新阶段，玩具厂想留住工人，这种投资就是必要的。

China’s working age population, defined as being those aged between 15 and 59, fell by 3.5m last year to 937m, a result of the one-child policy of the past three decades.
