Shoe Industry Big Town Wenxian County South Zhang Qiang Town Appears Serious "Labor Shortage".

December 15th, from last year to the present, Wenxian County south Zhang Qiang town

In 2006, the South Cheung Qiang footwear industry rose again from the decline, and the speed of development was amazing, from the past 10.

Nanzhang Qiang's footwear industry is a labor-intensive industry, mainly female workers, from pressing to sewing and other processes. It has a large amount of labor. 70% of the rural labor force is engaged in shoe production. Because of its good quality and low price, its annual production and sales are booming, and its products are sold out. The farmers' income has increased substantially, and the town's economy has been developing rapidly. Last year, the per capita net income of farmers in the whole town has reached more than 7000 yuan.

The rapid development of Nanzhang Qiang's shoe industry has made it impossible for the rural areas of the town to be recruited. Most of the local people are managerial personnel in the enterprises. The town has recruited 12 thousand migrant workers, but still can not meet the demand for employment. At present, there are more than 5000 workers in the gap.

In Nanzhang Qiang, a female worker works for eight hours in a shoe company. The minimum wage is 1500 yuan. A sewing worker does not have to work in the factory. Sewing at home can earn more than 2500 yuan a month.

At present, Nanzhang Qiang's footwear industry has already radiated more than 20 surrounding villages, 5 townships and 4 counties and cities.

In order to attract farmers from surrounding counties and cities to work in Nanqiang Qiang, all shoe companies bought large cars to pick up foreign workers.

Now, the whole town shoe enterprises have already sent more than 50 workers to and from the field workers. In order to recruit workers, some shoe companies have increased their welfare, and some have increased their wages. The competition is fierce.

In December 9th, Zhou Weixing, manager of the Seven Star shoe factory, told reporters that the 5 production lines in the factory only moved 3, because two workers had been idle for two years because they could not recruit workers.

At present, there are 18 direct production lines in the town.

Zheng Kaile, Party Secretary of Nanzhang Qiang Town, introduced that the economically affordable footwear produced by Nanzhang Qiang town was hot in the market. There were more than 20 shoe enterprises in the town demanding expansion of production scale, and more than 100 shoemaking workshops required to move out of the courtyard to run factories, only because the difficulty of recruiting workers slowed down the pace of development.
