The Beijing News:
Public employment services have always played an important role in employer recruitment and the job-seeking process. What are the plans and measures for optimizing public employment services? Thank you.
Li Zhong:
I would like to invite Mr. Song to answer this question.
Song Xin:
Thank you for your question. Public employment services are an important part of China's basic public services and a key means of stabilizing and expanding employment. Currently, there are more than 4,400 public employment and talent service agencies across the country, serving an average of 110 million people annually. There are over 6,900 odd-jobs markets, serving an average of nearly 300,000 people every day.
The third plenary session of the 20th CPC Central Committee proposed improving the public employment service system. We will continue to strengthen and enhance comprehensive public employment services that cover everyone, span the entire process, radiate across all areas, and are convenient and efficient, providing support for high-quality and full employment.
First, we will improve the system and promote equal access to services. We will eliminate restrictions based on household registration, region and identity, supporting urban and rural workers to enjoy employment services at their place of employment or job hunting. We will improve the service guarantee system for enterprises, providing equal recruitment and employment services to state-owned enterprises, private enterprises and individual business organizations.
Second, we will perfect the system to enhance service accessibility. We will continuously refine public employment service functions and provide targeted career guidance, job placement and other services to various recipients. We will establish convenient employment service stations and odd-jobs markets close to people's homes, create "15-minute service circles," and promote a service model of "big data plus in-person assistance" to push service resources down to the grassroots level.
Third, we will enhance capabilities and promote professional services. We will implement a capacity-building plan for public employment service personnel and build a high-quality team of service personnel with an appropriate structure. At the same time, we will further leverage the role of market-oriented human resource service agencies to expand the supply of specialized services and facilitate effective human resource connections.
Fourth, we will achieve smart services through digital capabilities. We will promote the continuous improvement of integrated provincial-level employment information resource databases and employment information platforms in various regions, make policies and services available online, and improve service efficiency. We will build and utilize a unified national public employment service information platform, promote information networking and data sharing, and support workers in enjoying employment services across various regions. Thank you.
