Home working knowledge of the two eyes of the wage change

 Surplus labor from the past to the present labor shortage, as the factory of the world, China is slowly undergoing change, and change to where the generation and so I can not imagine. Respond to the support of China's huge army of migrant workers as a corner man in my hometown , can bring in addition to slightly higher wages, there are what?
Spring Festival, really have the time and a poly friends and relatives, at parties understand a lot of their working life and mentality.
cousin:, 28, worked for the past twelve years, the city experienced working in Jinan, Shanghai, Wenzhou, Jiangsu, work footwear industry, garment industry and other
cousin: 19 years old, worked for the past five years, working Cities in Zhejiang Wenzhou, Jinhua, etc.
cousin wife garment industry: 30 years old, working nearly five years, city workers in Shanghai, Zhejiang, clothing
cousin: 39 years old, working for six years City workers in Shanghai, clothing
cousin: 35 years old, working about six years, Zibo, construction
can say that around me, my relatives and friends, from the 15-year-old boy from school girls, to middle-aged years to 40 years old, most of them are working outside, and the trades more in clothing, footwear and construction.
one income: 3,000 yuan a month earned the highest peak, no Insurance
cousin Although age is not great, but working there ten years the length of service, from the initial ignorant children to parents is now no longer young face, and quietly climbed up the corner of the wrinkles, the eyes of the vicissitudes of life have been who suffered physical injury, and his experience are not the typical representative of workers, but experienced enough to explain his ordeal.
Twelve years ago, after graduating from junior high school, reading is not good, he went to the village with the field along with the adults began to The journey to work, perhaps when he did not expect future wage is a way of life is all about. First, the construction industry, moving bricks, unloading sand, to earn a few hundred dollars a month, if you could get hand very end of the year Yes, there are unscrupulous employees often leave on the eve of the first in a phenomenon not to pay, to a year-end is not easy to do. about two or three years, the way to a shoe factory in Wenzhou of Zhejiang, for him, This dude is better than when the construction work is much better, at least do not have to work in the sun and rain. However, at this time, he was friends with the work encountered in a serious car accident going out and peer died on the spot He is also the whole body from multiple fractures. Sadly, the factory where he does not pay for a treatment of money, poor uncle, cousin back home had to treatment, although the disease cured, but suffered a similar ordeal and feel ruthless capitalists too chilling.
But in addition to working at home can do, what we can do, this is a problem of surplus labor force has been a social contradictions, but as the parties who are not looking to do a good job it. there is no way, ill have to work after a good, once again to kill a garment factory in Zhejiang, is now an export garment factory doing alterations. talked about the current situation, he said, much better than the previous monthly income, piece rate, orders can be more than busy get 3,000 yuan / month, but the case is basically very little, and is working overtime to dry in order to have such income.
while working with him in the same factory of his wife, because wages have not General posts difference, of course, little more than 3,000 yuan in wages. remove the food, daily expenses endures to the end of the remaining thirty thousand two has been very good, cousin told me.
but also in the clothing factory workers cousin and cousin, said the economic crisis last year, under the influence of their income do not earn more in 2008, although the money has increased in a few months later, but pitiful.
but all they serve factories do not have any labor insurance. cousin said that now can get our hands on the money each month to feel pretty good, a few years ago, the boss often one or more in arrears of wages of workers to a variety of reasons .
Second, the work environment: to improve the accommodation, one day off per week from the mess Chase
shop, and now a dormitory with toilet, over the years, as China's increasing status of manufacturing plants, workers conditions also improved. For the kind-hearted, one would like to make money for the child's home to pay off debts and more people, a little change can make them feel satisfied and easy to meet.
cousin said they factory conditions Yes, he and his lover's husband and wife can apply for the factory, do not pay the rent, paid monthly electricity, water, gas can, but also with a bathroom, shower room. Although smaller than in rural areas where the big W Room spacious but crowded than the current shop has a far cry from the Chase.
and, for them, the better is now mandatory that everyone take a day off, not left as a few months almost never break down. then he had to earn more money, working continuously 14 hours a day, half a row without a break. as they are now working time is usually 12 hours a week of rest, which for them is that a lot of happiness .
Third, for the future: a loss
I think, over the years, we have been learning sweatshop capitalism, in fact, in my relatives is that these examples. without any guarantee of work, too long working time, they are basically holding their own youth and labor in increasing wealth for the society, but it is rarely added to the self. Even so, slightly easier to meet easily to improve their well-being, but in the living growing gap between rich and poor before the facts are changing their attitude, but also thinking.
, a child can feed our family so much for the elderly. future no matter what, they are still not yet over before the fifteenth day of south have begun to list, the respective teams to work in the city, scattered in different factories, weaving manufacturing plant to the world dream of prosperity.
