Definition of migrant workers

Migrant workers, also known as migrant workers and migrant workers, refer to people who migrate from rural areas to cities to work. The term "migrant workers" appeared after many farmers entered the city after the reform and opening up. They are the main force of urban economic development and have made great contributions to the development of the city.

Migrant workers living and working in cities have made great contributions to the development of cities. In some people's minds, migrant workers are derogatory terms. In fact, migrant workers are not necessarily special people who live in rural areas but work in cities. With the improvement of China's household registration system, people who have rural household registration and work in cities, including junior and senior high school graduates who have rural household registration and work in cities after graduating from colleges and universities, will no longer have urban and rural household registration.

Migrant workers are synonymous and the main force of urban economic development. Generally speaking, it refers to farmers and workers. Of course, it is said by China people. In America, there is no such name as farmer. They are collectively called farm workers. Literally, migrant workers and farm workers seem to have little difference, but after careful study, they are two completely different words. First of all, in terms of identity, migrant workers are farmers and farm workers are workers; Secondly, at work, migrant workers do the work in the city and farm workers do the work on the farm.

The new generation of migrant workers mainly refers to the post-80s and post-90s generation, accounting for 60% of the 65.438+0.5 billion migrant workers, about 65.438+0.5 billion. They go to school after birth and go to work in cities after graduation. Relatively speaking, they are not so familiar with agriculture, countryside, land and farmers. On the other hand, they are eager to enter and integrate into the urban society, and the city is not fully prepared to accept them in many aspects. The age of the new generation of migrant workers is 18 to 25 years old, showing the characteristics of "three highs and one low": high education level, high career expectations, high work tolerance and low requirements for material and spiritual enjoyment.
