The issue of low wages and long working hours for Chinese workers has indeed attracted widespread attention globally.
This issue involves many complex factors, including the supply and demand of labor, institutional issues, and economic development models.
Firstly, as one of the most populous countries in the world, China has a relatively abundant labor supply, leading to intense competition in certain industries and regions.
Due to competitive pressures, some companies may choose to lower workers' wages, which also contributes to the problem of low wages.
Secondly, China has developed an export-oriented economic model over the past few decades, providing the global market with a large amount of cheap labor.
This economic model relies to some extent on low-cost labor, leading to the phenomenon of low wages and long working hours over the long term.
Additionally, China's labor laws and enforcement efforts also have an impact on this issue.
Although China has laws protecting workers' rights, there are still some issues in the implementation and enforcement processes, such as wage arrears and excessive overtime being relatively common.
However, with rapid economic development and social progress in China, the government has taken a series of measures to improve workers' treatment and protect their rights.
This includes raising the minimum wage standards, strengthening labor law enforcement, and promoting trade union organization.
Meanwhile, some companies have begun to pay attention to employee benefits and working conditions, focusing on human resource management to improve worker satisfaction.
The government has actively implemented poverty alleviation policies, improving the quality of the labor market supply fundamentally through raising education levels and providing skills training.
Furthermore, the improvement and strengthening of the labor contract system provide workers with more protection and rights.
Although China still faces some challenges in addressing the issue of low wages and long working hours, it is evident that the government, enterprises, and various sectors of society have recognized the importance of this issue and are actively working to address it.
Continuous efforts and reforms are needed to achieve a fairer and more sustainable labor market.
In the future, China will continue to promote economic restructuring and transformation, drive industrial upgrading and innovative development, thereby providing more employment opportunities and better development prospects for workers.
At the same time, the government will strengthen labor market regulation to ensure the effective protection of workers' legitimate rights and interests, striving to build harmonious and stable labor relations and achieve the goal of common development and shared prosperity.
