Han Jing: Taking multiple measures to broaden the main channels for graduates to find employment. Universities | Graduates | Employment Opportunities
This year, the number of college graduates is expected to reach a historic high of 11.58 million. Currently, the employment of graduates has entered a critical stage. Doing a good job in the employment of college graduates is related to implementing the employment priority strategy and providing basic and strategic talent support for Chinese path to modernization.
Since the beginning of this year, various regions and departments have made visiting enterprises and expanding job opportunities a key task in promoting employment. Recently, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, together with multiple departments, launched the "Employment Sailing Policy Escort" Youth Employment and Entrepreneurship Policy Promotion Week nationwide, promoting employment preferential policies in enterprises, interpreting employment and entrepreneurship support policies in campuses, and providing "one-on-one" job guidance in communities... A series of solid measures have provided strong support for the smooth employment of college graduates.
However, it should be noted that there is still pressure on the total employment of college graduates in China, and the structural contradiction of difficult recruitment and employment remains prominent. Faced with issues such as imbalanced talent supply and demand, slowed development in some industries, and poor employment opportunities for some graduates, relevant departments need to take multiple measures to alleviate difficulties and make the employment path for graduates smoother.
Firstly, broaden the supply of employment opportunities through multiple channels. The huge number of college graduates requires more job opportunities and must stimulate all sectors of society to stabilize and expand their employment. Private enterprises are the main channel for employment of college graduates. We must implement the "two unwavering principles", stimulate the vitality of private investment, better leverage the role of private enterprises in promoting employment, and consolidate the micro foundation for promoting employment. We also need to promote the action of stabilizing and expanding positions in the public sector, and stabilize the recruitment scale of government agencies, public institutions, state-owned enterprises, etc. Promote the deep integration of the digital economy and the real economy, promote the digital transformation of professions, better leverage the boosting role of the digital economy in employment and entrepreneurship, and open more doors to high-quality employment for college graduates.
Secondly, improve the quality of employment services. One of the important factors affecting the employment of college graduates is the efficiency of matching supply and demand information. Some graduates have problems such as lack of understanding of job requirements and unclear self-awareness, and there are also illegal phenomena such as "black intermediaries" and false recruitment in the market. Therefore, relevant departments should establish a good employment platform, promote information interconnection and resource sharing, alleviate the problems of "job difficulty" and "job vacancy", and improve the efficiency of personnel job matching. Universities should also carry out employment and entrepreneurship education, enhance the autonomy and enthusiasm of graduates in job search, establish a "one person, one policy" employment service ledger, and provide support for graduates to smoothly transition from school to the workplace.
Once again, establish a long-term mechanism to promote employment. College graduates are a precious talent resource for the country and a key group for ensuring employment and stability. We should continue to expand market-oriented employment channels, provide multiple policy support such as social security subsidies and tax reductions to enterprises that provide stable new employment opportunities, and strive to achieve a win-win situation for enterprise development and graduate growth, promoting high-quality development and high-level employment to achieve a two-way flow. The government should take advantage of the situation, increase the budget for social training, build digital training platforms, standardize vocational skills training and various knowledge training for unemployed college students, and help job seekers keep up with the times. In the long run, to promote high-quality employment for college graduates, it is necessary to optimize the disciplinary and professional structure of universities, strengthen the cultivation of students' professional abilities and innovation and entrepreneurship abilities, and reduce the structural contradictions in the employment of college graduates.
Finally, we need to secure a new form of social security for college student employment. In recent years, the employment attitude of college graduates has become more pragmatic and rational, and their willingness to work and start businesses in private enterprises, small and micro enterprises, as well as new industries and professions has been continuously increasing. To adapt to the new characteristics of employment for college graduates, multiple measures should be taken to protect their legitimate rights and interests, especially to provide comprehensive protection for the social security contribution sharing system, labor rights and work benefits for workers in new forms of employment, solve their worries, achieve diversified employment and entrepreneurship for college graduates, and stimulate more potential and vitality in society.
