About funeral industry

I have been doing this business in Shanghai for many years. General cemetery enterprises are relatively idle, and funeral homes are relatively busy.

In fact, the funeral industry is not so terrible, death is a normal thing, and there should be no psychological obstacles. Do it whenever you have the chance. See if this job is suitable for you.

I just graduated from school two years ago and met a big recruitment in the funeral industry in Shanghai in the spring of 2009. Finally, I will be one of the lucky 65,438+008 after going through five levels, and then work in a cemetery. At first, I was full of curiosity about this industry, but after a long time, I may feel that it is not suitable for me because it is too easy to go to work. I go to work at 8: 30 every day, and basically no customers come until 10. Then I usually finish my work from 10 to 1 1, and the morning work is over. I'll have a good meal and then send the customers away in the morning. Go to work in the afternoon 1: 30, and continue to be bored until 3 pm. Basically, I am busy for an hour and a half in the afternoon and get off work at 4: 30 on time. Because I couldn't learn what I wanted to learn, I resigned after working for more than a year. This is the basic situation of cemetery enterprises.

The work of the funeral home is like what is said upstairs: picking up the remains (driving if necessary)

Cold storage of remains (need to be serious and responsible, can't make any mistakes, can accept special smell)

Cremation of remains (you need to be qualified as a cremator and be able to operate cremation equipment)

Body plastic surgery (requires the qualification and courage of plastic surgeons, etc.). )

Etiquette reception (guiding family members of funeral industry to go through various formalities)

Then there are staff in other positions, including various window services and so on.

This needs to be very responsible, because the bereavement is rather sad at this time, so you can't make any mistakes at this time, otherwise you will be scolded by bereavement and even hit you.

Tell me what the salary is

The work in the cemetery is easier than that in the funeral home, and the salary is not high. The basic salary of this cemetery in the suburbs of Shanghai is 2000 yuan, and I have to pay another 3 yuan (the company I joined is so bad that I don't keep my word. The recruitment information said it was 4 gold, and finally I got 3 gold. This is one of the reasons why I left my job. )。 Generally, there is a salary increase mechanism for those who work long hours, but not much. At this time, the big leader wants to get some contacts in, so it's hard to say what we have below. Generally, people who come in through relationships are treated better.

In general cemeteries, private individuals may hold up to 49% of the shares, and the other 5 1% is owned by the Civil Affairs Bureau. The salary of private-owned enterprises may be less, and that of state-owned enterprises will be relatively higher, but not much higher. Excluding leaders, the average salary of employees in Shanghai is 30,000-40,000, which is good, but compared with other popular industries in society, this salary is still average. It is recommended that friends who have the opportunity, ability and dreams start businesses and earn more than these figures. The main domestic production costs are low, the system is not perfect, and the legal system is always a beat behind the market, so there are still many opportunities. The relative salary of funeral parlours is higher, and other welfare benefits are better than those of cemetery enterprises.
