Eliminate employment discrimination and improve employment quality
2023-04-18
The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security recently issued a notice to deploy the 2023 Youth Employment and Entrepreneurship Promotion Plan for college graduates and other young people, promoting high-quality and full employment for young people. Other ministries and commissions also have relevant linkage policies to provide national level mechanisms and policy support for promoting high-quality employment. Promoting high-quality employment is an important issue that must be taken seriously, which is related to people's livelihoods and the high-quality development of China's economy and society. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasizes the elimination of institutional and policy drawbacks that hinder the flow of labor and talent, the elimination of unreasonable restrictions and employment discrimination that affect equal employment, and the opportunity for everyone to achieve their own development through diligent labor. In the current critical period of employment for college graduates, multiple mechanisms should be mobilized to comprehensively prevent employment discrimination, promote equal employment opportunities, and create a good employment environment for graduates. Guide society to form a scientific and rational understanding, and encourage diversified talent sources. In practice, many places and employers have summarized and improved a series of measures, especially the government and state-owned enterprises and institutions taking the lead in effectively eliminating discriminatory clauses in recruitment. For example, this year, many places have relaxed the age limit for civil service recruitment exams to 40 years old, which has released a positive signal to eliminate age discrimination and is conducive to guiding all sectors of society to form a scientific awareness of personnel selection and appointment. Strengthen the supervision and punishment of employment discrimination, and improve the mechanism for sharing employment costs. Promoting anti employment discrimination legislation is an important way to protect the rights and interests of job seekers. The legislative process should be accelerated, and clear provisions should be made on the legal responsibilities, dispute resolution mechanisms, and judicial assistance for employment discrimination. In order to prevent discrimination from happening more and more covertly in practice due to phenomena such as "government inviting customers and enterprises paying the bill", it is necessary to share the costs of relevant policies for enterprises under the premise of legislative protection. Efforts should be made from both sides of labor supply and demand to resolve structural contradictions. In the notice issued by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security to carry out the 2023 Youth Employment and Entrepreneurship Promotion Plan for University Graduates, the primary item is to promote the implementation of policies for small and medium-sized enterprises to attract graduates for employment. The private economy has solved more than 80% of urban labor employment, which is beneficial for promoting high-quality development of the private economy and tapping into more job demands. Universities should reform their training mechanisms and evaluation systems, widely carry out school enterprise cooperation, and provide students with more internship and employment opportunities. In particular, it is necessary to strengthen the skill training for vocational college graduates, so that they can master knowledge and skills that meet market demands, and promote their initiative in the labor market through the improvement of their strength. Establish a sound employment service system and build an education system that serves lifelong learning. The lack of smooth and asymmetric information is an important factor that puts college graduates at a disadvantage in the job market. Universities should establish a continuous communication mechanism with the labor market to promote information matching between graduates and enterprises, fully demonstrate their employability, and reduce employment discrimination caused by information asymmetry. In addition, from a decision-making perspective, college graduates' job selection involves a series of issues within a specific time window, with the lowest expectations and priorities, and a more reasonable time structure should be designed. For example, the recruitment of government civil servants and personnel from public institutions should be done as much as possible
