Why is it increasingly difficult for Foxconn to recruit general workers now?

This is a long-term sequela caused by Foxconn's negative image in the past. What goes around comes around, and what goes around comes around. It's not too late. In the eyes of Chinese people, Foxconn is a "sweatshop", with so many suicides, dense female dormitories and lack of security and privacy (all of which have been reported in the past). I dare ask who would like to work in such a factory. Of course, this is not a case. Although the salary and benefits offered by Foxconn are good, it is still difficult to recruit people in reality. I think there are the following reasons: The main reasons are as follows:

The transformation from low-end manufacturing to high-end intelligent manufacturing in China has led to the spread of low-end labor shortage.

China has begun to turn from a manufacturing power to an intelligent manufacturing power, and is committed to building a higher-level scientific and technological innovation country from the past world processing factories. This grand strategy has affected the development of labor-intensive industries. Labor-intensive enterprises like Foxconn, which rely on manual assembly line operations, are no longer liked by young people in society. Their wages are low, their intensity is high, and they can't learn anything. Just like the machines on the assembly line, they still eat youthful meals. The end of this industry is a high probability event. This low-end manufacturing industry began to shift to India, Southeast Asia and Northeast Asia, where labor costs were lower. Foxconn, a low-end assembly line factory, can't recruit people, which shows the gradual success of national industrial transformation and the rise of people's consciousness.

People's demands for jobs are not just salary and treatment.

With the continuous improvement of the well-off level in China, people look for jobs not only from the perspective of salary, but also from the perspective of spiritual enjoyment and working environment. For a company like Foxconn, the job it can give is extremely boring. If this continues for a long time, it may lead to the depression of workers, because every day is a constant repetition of an action, which is unacceptable to modern people who pursue spiritual enjoyment.

Social employment no longer pursues the absolute value of income, but pursues happiness.

In the past few years, Foxconn has often seen negative news such as employee suicides, fires and labor disputes. Some people jokingly call him a "sweatshop worker". Foxconn didn't care about this negative label at the time. A man with two legs. If you don't do it, someone will try. Then, with the development of society, young people who come out from the countryside to work have begun to wake up and should not enslave dogs or robots on the assembly line. People gradually know that happiness comes not only from income, but also from the stability, dignity, security, respect and pride of work. For future development, young people are willing to go to those industries that are human, warm, learning and progressing, instead of just standing on the assembly line and screwing.

With the popularization and improvement of the expansion of education scale, people's average academic qualifications have improved.

As we all know, companies like Foxconn have very low requirements for recruiting ordinary workers, even as long as their limbs are sound. However, most of the talents in the society now have degrees, so for those who have a certain degree, units like Foxconn basically do not consider it. Because no matter how high the salary is, there is no room for people to display their abilities, which is unacceptable.

Social youth are more willing to pursue freedom and future development.

Foxconn is a low-end manufacturing industry, and they need a large number of assembly line operators with simple skills. At present, China's industrial development has been upgraded, and it has begun to develop into high-end industries such as internet plus, intelligent machinery, artificial intelligence and big data. If you put yourself in the shoes, would you like to stand on the assembly line and work like a machine? Then when you are old and can't move the assembly line, you will find that when you leave the assembly line and can't find a suitable position in society, will you still buy this negative list for your youth in the next ten years? No, more and more young people prefer to work and study to lay the foundation for their future, and they don't like to go to this low-end skill operation post.

There are many kinds of jobs for people to choose from.

Nowadays, the competition between enterprises is increasing year by year, so the derived industries have become diversified, and the types of jobs available for job seekers are gradually increasing. So for people nowadays, it is not so difficult to find a decent job, so as long as there are slightly better companies to choose from, they will not choose Foxconn, because in the depths of people's cognition, they still think that the electronics factory will not stay long.

All in all, the salary offered by Foxconn is good, but even the recruitment of an ordinary worker has become a problem, which is naturally inseparable from the company's working environment and work intensity. Of course, there are also factors of social development.

To sum up, low-end manufacturing and labor-intensive industries are no longer the key industries of the country, nor are they the direction that young people like to find jobs. At present, young people are more willing to start their own businesses or enter new industries such as the Internet and artificial intelligence. From this perspective, this is a good thing for China's industrial transformation. Millions of shirt processing workers can't get a Boeing plane for a year, and this situation should be changed as soon as possible.
