25、 The Chinese central government is making great efforts to provide skill training programs for rural migrant workers(农民工). The goal is to help keep the job market and win the fight against poverty(贫困).
The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security(人力资源和社会保障部门) recently started a project to train 7 million rural migrant workers this year and the same number next year. The ministry said companies will play key roles in organizing training programs for these workers.
Wang Xing, a professor from Nankai University who pays more attention to social work, said, “Our government training programs for migrant workers is mainly to help companies reduce training costs. Companies don't have to pay a lot of money for the job training anymore.”
“Companies usually care about two things in workers' training. One is how much the training costs and the other is job-hopping of their best workers. ” he added. “As far as I know, companies want to improve the workers' skills and keep competitive by training. However, job-hopping makes the companies lose their experienced workers so it will take longer time to train other new workers.”
He also mentioned something about high-technology training programs, “Training is a learning process for these workers, including migrant workers who have little knowledge of operating machines. Short-term programs can help migrant workers to find jobs they are good at. Long-term programs are necessary to help everyone learn professional knowledge and special skills for jobs that are more difficult to do.”
