"Being recognized as a 'lying flat' cadre has a great impact on oneself, and my family feels ashamed." "I am only 48 years old this year, and I will definitely abandon the 'lying flat' mentality and do more practical things for the people..." This is the voice of Zhu, former deputy director of the Education and Sports Bureau of a certain district in Pu'er City, Yunnan Province. ".
As he grew older, Zhu gradually encountered problems of insufficient responsibility and low quality and efficiency. In June of this year, he was recognized by the district party committee as a "lying flat" cadre, and was dismissed, reminded, and given disciplinary action. He was then appointed as a fourth level chief clerk.
"Only by facing problems, solving problems, and improving oneself can we stand up again after falling," said Zhu. Currently, he is mainly responsible for assisting in the management of school safety work and will do his best to ensure that students can learn and live in a safe environment.
Zhu is a typical example of Yunnan's in-depth work in rectifying "lying flat" cadres.
Portrait the "Taiping Officer"
According to statistics, since the launch of theme education, Yunnan has identified 1410 "lying flat" cadres. At the same time, Yunnan adheres to the principle of "three distinctions", implements a fault-tolerant and error correction mechanism, enhances the sense of mission of Party members and cadres to work hard and promote development, and boosts their spirit of striving for progress and striving for excellence.
Kunming, the capital city of Yunnan Province, took the lead in carrying out the work of striving to become "practical workers" and rectifying "peace officials". According to the requirements of concrete and visual evaluation, the "practical workers" and "peace officials" were depicted, and nine types of negative situations of "peace officials" were refined from six aspects: being content with the status quo, being complacent, not daring to take responsibility, procrastinating, having low work standards, and shifting blame.
The relevant person in charge of the Organization Department of the Kunming Municipal Party Committee introduced that for "practical workers", the local government will provide incentives through five methods: promotion and priority promotion; Six methods will be adopted to rectify "Taiping officials", including reminders through conversations, performance deductions, criticism and notification, "bringing back" education, dismissal and demotion, and disciplinary action.

Huang, a department level cadre in a certain district of Kunming City, refused to take on more responsibility and avoided work on the grounds of "being unable to do it, having no one". He also complained about being punished or wronged. The district committee has transferred him to other agencies as a deputy department head. After three months of observation, the unit evaluated that the comrade has been well demonstrated and demonstrated in the new position. Huang's mental state has significantly improved, and his enthusiasm for work has effectively increased. Through evaluation, frontline investigation, and organizational recognition, they were removed from the "Taiping Officer" cadre database.
As of now, a total of 185 "Taiping officials" have been identified in Kunming, including 179 interviews and reminders, 51 feedback and education sessions, 66 organizational and disciplinary actions, 26 disciplinary actions, and 21 warning exposures.
Accurate treatment and targeted treatment
The rectification of "lying flat" cadres requires precise implementation of policies. Since the launch of themed education in Simao District, Pu'er City, the district party committee has refined and clarified 16 recognition situations, including passive work coping and low work standards, based on three levels: the main leaders of the party and government team, members of the party and government team, and general cadres and employees. Through five steps of "special research, clue sorting, evaluation, comprehensive analysis, and district committee approval," the first batch of 88 "lying flat" cadres have been recognized.
In terms of management, Simao District insists on linking the "lying flat" cadre's "hat" with annual assessment and the ability of cadres to "go down". For example, the main party and government officials and responsible leaders of townships and district units who rank last in the annual comprehensive assessment of the entire district or last three in the industry system of the city are directly recognized as "lying flat" cadres. Those who are recognized as "lying flat" cadres once within a year shall be assessed as basically competent through annual personal assessment; Those who have been identified twice will be assessed as incompetent in the annual assessment, and will be demoted by one position, job level, employee level, and skill level.
In terms of disposal, Simao District conducted interviews with the main party and government leaders of 10 district level units who failed to fulfill their main responsibilities and were lax in supervising and managing cadre education; 16 department level cadres with scattered work styles and careless performance of duties shall be dismissed or transferred from their original units; "We will comprehensively use measures such as dismissal, adjustment and communication, criticism and education to accurately deal with the identified 'lying flat' cadres who have been working in the same unit for a long time, content with the current situation, and mediocre in their work..." said Hu Xuankun, member of the Standing Committee of the Pu'er Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Simao District Party Committee.
At the same time, Simao District has carried out the "Care+Guidance" Heart Run Pilot Action, and the cadres of the Organization Department of the District Committee have formed "one-to-many" pairs to help and had "one-to-one" heart to heart talks, mastering the thoughts and work dynamics of the cadres being dealt with. Establish a "lying flat" cadre management database and implement dynamic management. Promptly cancel and "release" accounts for "lying flat" cadres with good conversion effects, and promptly "store" newly added "lying flat" cadres.
Shi, the former deputy mayor of a certain town in Simao District, was recognized as a "lying flat" cadre due to playing a superficial role in people's livelihood issues and serving the people. He was appointed as a fourth level chief clerk of the town government and worked at the convenience service window. "The leader has had multiple conversations with me and urged me to actively engage in new work," said Shi.
Raise a new and positive atmosphere
This is the public's evaluation of He Chang'e, Secretary of the Yanshan County Party Committee, who is known for being swift and decisive, taking action as soon as you speak, and using mobile phones to respond and solve problems raised by enterprises in a timely manner.
Since serving as the Secretary of the Yanshan County Party Committee in June 2021, He Chang'e has been focusing on the economy of the park, taking the lead in attracting investment, visiting the park at least once a week on average, actively visiting enterprises, and promoting project implementation.
Since the launch of theme education, a large number of outstanding cadres like He Chang'e have emerged in Yunnan, who are politically firm, loyal to the Party, diligent in serving the people, dedicated to work and entrepreneurship, and upright and honest, becoming typical examples of taking on responsibilities.
The relevant person in charge of the Theme Education Office of the Yunnan Provincial Party Committee stated that a clear employment orientation of "prioritizing frontline work, practical achievements, and recognition" is gradually taking shape in Yunnan. Party committees, governments, and relevant departments at all levels are effectively supporting whoever performs their duties and reusing whoever achieves their goals, allowing those who are capable to take their positions while those who are not capable to do so to lose their positions. With the change in the ideological style of cadres, it leads to changes in action effectiveness, promotes changes in benefiting the people, and fosters changes in high-quality development.
As of the end of July 2023, Yunnan province has comprehensively used methods such as individual interviews, democratic evaluations, and organizational recognition to screen and investigate "lying flat" cadres. A total of 73872 individuals were interviewed, 4796 major projects were visited, and 12013 candidates for "practical" cadres and 1410 candidates for "lying flat" cadres were identified. 1981 "practical" cadres have been promoted and further utilized, and 752 "lying flat" cadres have been dealt with. Among them, 392 people have conducted heart to heart talks, 78 people have received "back to heart education," 88 people have been reminded of interviews, 44 people have been held accountable, and 150 people have been adjusted.
Shen Bin, Vice Dean of the School of Government Management at Yunnan University, said that the rectification of "lying flat" cadres in Yunnan has achieved phased results, but it is also necessary to recognize that the problem of work style is stubborn and repetitive. We must adhere to a strict tone, measures, and atmosphere, continue to work hard in a regular, long-term, deep, and detailed manner, stimulate cadres at all levels to always maintain their enthusiasm and hard work, and effectively promote high-quality economic and social development.
