I want to apply for the position of funeral home.

The industry you chose is so special! ~。 . .

I don't know much about this, but I have seen some related posts on the Internet for your reference ~ ~ (annual salary of ordinary workers 1.8 million)! !

Core Tip: A few days ago, some netizens posted that "the annual salary of ordinary employees is 654.38+0.8 million, and the salary of funeral industry is high." When this news came out, it triggered a heated discussion among netizens.

The reporter of "Ocean Direct Attack" reported that a few days ago, an ocean netizen posted in the Ocean Forum that "the annual salary of ordinary employees is 6.5438+0.8 million yuan, and there is a high salary shady in the funeral industry" (see the ocean news "Beautiful employees in funeral parlours exposed their annual salary of 6.5438+0.8 million yuan"), which triggered a hot discussion among netizens. Recently, a netizen "Yang Can", who claimed to be an ordinary employee of the funeral home in Guangzhou, posted a detailed account of some work details unheard of by ordinary people, which aroused the sympathy and * * * of many netizens, and at the same time, once again triggered a debate about whether it is reasonable for funeral home employees to get such high wages.

"When you encounter carrion, it is not only smelly, but also easy to move."

Yang Can, a netizen who claimed to work in the body care room of the funeral home, said, "Even some old employees who have been engaged in funeral work for a long time are not as mentally numb to all kinds of things that ordinary people can't accept. Funeral workers are like ordinary people. What ordinary people fear and dislike has the same feelings as what ordinary people love and pursue. "

"Yang Can" told some personal experiences of himself or his colleagues: "After receiving the call, he and his colleagues drove a transport vehicle to an old city in Haizhu District to pick up an old man with five guarantees who died. Upon arrival, I went to a small pavilion on the seventh floor according to the location reported by telephone. At that time, the old man had been dead for a long time, his body smelled bad and flies were flying around. Because the floor is low and the door is narrow, only one person can carry the body. Colleagues picked up the old man and walked out step by step. May be due to the vibration when walking, the old population spit out a lot of liquid, colleagues unprepared, all spit on the back of colleagues. " ...

Working in the body care room (anti-corrosion department) requires strong psychological endurance. Yang Can tells a story that impressed him the most: "This year, I once picked up a lesbian who died of breast cancer from the hospital. The body care room bathed her and made her up according to the requirements of her family. After taking a bath, the nurse dried herself with a towel. Due to the improper handling of the remains by the hospital, when the nurse wiped them, the liquid in the remains suddenly gushed out and splashed all over the nurse's face. Although the nurse has been engaged in physical care for 10 years, she still vomited on the spot and was hospitalized the next day ... "

Other funeral practitioners also talked about their work experience: "On one occasion, they fished for floating bodies in the water. Because there is no road, they have to tie a rope around their waist, slide into the water, and tie the body on their backs ... It is even more troublesome to encounter carrion, which is not only stinking, but also easy to move. "

"I can't get a few wedding invitations in my life."

"Yang Can" said that compared with the psychological shock he felt at the scene, the greater pressure came from his friends and relatives. Because of the social prejudice against the industry of dealing with the dead, it is difficult for the practitioners in the funeral industry to face life in a normal psychological state, especially in Guangdong, which pays more attention to traditional cultural customs. People who are engaged in funeral work can't receive a few wedding invitations in their lifetime, and even if they do, they consciously don't participate; Due to the need of work, funeral home staff sometimes have to contact some units and learn that they belong to the funeral home. The other person's outstretched hand often makes a welcome note, "Never touch us." Almost everyone has encountered a similar situation. So in order to avoid embarrassment, they never take the initiative to shake hands with others. For these reasons, when dealing with the outside world, funeral homes generally only say that they are under the control of the Civil Affairs Bureau and never dare to reveal their true identity.

What's more, even family members can't fully accommodate their special jobs. An old corpse carrier in a funeral home said that after working for 34 years, his family knew that he was working in a funeral home, but they didn't know what he was doing. "Once, I accidentally let it slip: I got a rotting corpse. My wife was so scared that she ran out for several meters and asked me to take a shower at once. " According to media reports, more than 50% of funeral workers are in a state of "sub-health" because of "heart disease" caused by long-term social anomalies.

Guangzhou funeral parlour

The person in charge of a funeral home confirmed that the annual salary was 6.5438+0.8 million.

According to previous media reports, in August 2006, Guangzhou Funeral Center recruited for four days, and 23 places attracted nearly 170 college students to consult, and 102 people signed up for the admission ticket. Among them, 10 many masters went to register, and only 3 got the admission ticket. Similarly, in March 2006, Beijing Funeral System recruited five or six college graduates, and received more than 500 resumes from famous universities such as Tsinghua and Peking University within half a month, with the ratio of 100: 1. Since the funeral work has to face such great psychological and social pressure, why is there such a hot application scene? A person in charge of the funeral service center admits that the main reason for the funeral industry to turn from cold to hot is the stable work and income and good welfare. According to the "Annual Survey Report on the Employment Situation and Development of College Students in 2006" sponsored by China Human Resources Development Network and College Students Employment Magazine in April, 2006, the salary expectation of most graduates has been adjusted to about 1000 yuan, and even there are many cases of "zero-wage" employment. In the case that "it is difficult for college students to find jobs" has become a common phenomenon, the conditions offered by Guangzhou Funeral Center for recruitment positions are: "The monthly salary of undergraduate and frontline workers can reach more than 5,000 yuan; Second-line workers with college or technical secondary school education, such as business promoters, earn more than 3000 a month, which can be said to be quite attractive. In response to the rumor that the annual salary of funeral home employees is 1.8 million, the reporter of Ocean Direct contacted a former person in charge of the funeral home. The other party said, "Some people have high-paying jobs and some people have low-paying jobs. Every unit has it. There are 15 100 months, and there are higher ones, but more than 20 years ago, we only had more than 60 yuan a month, but he refused to disclose more details.

The high salary of funeral workers has been understood and sympathized by some netizens.

For the statement that "the average annual income of employees is 6.5438+0.8 million, and the funeral salary is high", marine netizens have formed two opposing views. The opposing party thinks that the annual salary of 6.5438+0.8 million is far higher than the general wage standard, which is extremely unreasonable; After understanding the work details of the funeral staff, the supporters think that the annual salary is 1.8 million!

In response to questions from anti-netizens, another front-line employee of Guangzhou Funeral Home said that not everyone can do this kind of work. "Imagine that your daily work is a job that makes people afraid and feel dirty, especially those that are accidental, the residual limbs on the ground, or the work that burns like black charcoal. How many of you can stand it? " "Some netizens compare the criminal police and think that the funeral industry is not a high-risk industry, but they only see that the policeman Cai is threatened by a knife and gun, but they can't see that the funeral staff comes from all kinds of hepatitis, tuberculosis, leprosy, ptomaine and so on. This still stems from some discrimination and prejudice against funeral workers. " After reading their messages, some netizens expressed sympathy and understanding. Netizen "Shanshi" said, I really admire this courage and work attitude! The annual salary 1.8 million is also worthwhile. Netizen "Star Citizen" said: "It is acceptable for this special industry to earn less than 20,000 a month. Imagine if you had to face the parting of the living and the dead every day in your life, what difference would your mentality and spirit be. Star citizens accept the higher income of ordinary employees in the funeral service center, whether the tax is normal, and other issues are counted separately. " An anonymous netizen also said: "This job is beyond the ability of ordinary people. What are you going to do if I give you 200,000 yuan? I face bad things every day. If I were you, I can't do it! Treat people's high income with a correct attitude. The price paid by their high income is unimaginable to people outside our circle! First of all, neither I nor my relatives are employees in this industry. I only learned about the bitterness and bitterness of the funeral staff in the newspaper before. "

Netizen "777 1" also expressed his opinion: "I should know more about the income level and fees of funeral homes in Guangzhou. The basic service standards shall be stipulated by the Provincial Price Bureau and the Municipal Price Bureau, and the items and standards of special services shall be reported by the funeral parlour to the Civil Affairs Bureau and the Price Bureau for the record. In terms of employees' income, there is no doubt that the ordinary managers of funeral homes can definitely get a monthly income of 6.5438+0.8 million. Personally, I don't think I will do this even if I am given 6.5438+0.8 million. As far as I know, the employees of funeral homes are under great social pressure. They went out to eat and booked seats. They dare not say it's a funeral home, but they all say it's a civil affairs bureau. No one will pay New Year greetings to them, even the best friends don't want them to pay New Year greetings, but they have few friends. Many people have worked artificially for decades, and their families don't know that they work in funeral homes. I think even if their annual salary is 280 thousand, the quality of life they get is not as high as that of normal people's annual salary of 30 thousand to 50 thousand This is a very special industry, and I think it needs special treatment. Those who keep saying that there is no pressure in any industry, if you go to the management building of the funeral home for a few months (not just to the front line), you will fully feel the depressed atmosphere, which is definitely not faced by other industries. I guess you know something about this industry. Of course, excessive income is also inappropriate, because these incomes come from the hard work of ordinary people. The point is. Blaming them blindly for their high income is a typical unbalanced mentality. "

It is difficult for private capital to enter the funeral industry.

A large part of the controversy about the high salary of the funeral industry focuses on the controversy that "the funeral industry relies on monopoly to make huge profits". Although under the appeal and concern of all parties, the funeral industry has been liberalized to private capital, allowing private capital and even foreign capital to participate in competition, but overall, funeral service facilities still belong to the special management field of the country.

In response to netizens' doubts about its "particularity", industry insiders explained that the control of corpse disposal mainly involves many social security and customs. Therefore, the funeral industry cannot be fully market-oriented. 1997, Article 8 of the Regulations on Funeral Management in People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that: the people's government at the county level and the civil affairs departments of the people's governments of cities and autonomous prefectures with districts shall put forward plans and report them to the people's government at the same level for examination and approval; The construction of funeral service stations and columbariums shall be examined and approved by the people's governments at the county level and the civil affairs departments of the people's governments of cities and autonomous prefectures divided into districts; The construction of cemeteries shall be audited by the people's governments at the county level and the civil affairs departments of the people's governments of cities and autonomous prefectures divided into districts, and then submitted to the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government for examination and approval. The use of foreign capital to build funeral facilities shall be reported to the civil affairs department of the State Council for examination and approval after being examined and approved by the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government. The establishment of public cemetery by rural villagers shall be approved by the people's government at the township level and reported to the civil affairs department of the people's government at the county level for examination and approval. Article 9 of the Regulations stipulates that no unit or individual may build funeral facilities without approval. From the above-mentioned legal provisions, it is not difficult to understand that it is still difficult for private capital to enter the funeral industry because of the complex access conditions and the lack of support from relevant legal rules. In many places, because this industry is still dominated by the civil affairs department, corruption cases in the funeral industry emerge one after another, which is also the root of the public criticism of the funeral industry.

According to Guangzhou Daily, in August 2006, the reform plan of the funeral management system in Zhuhai was approved in principle by the Zhuhai Municipal Government, and the funeral reform will be started within this year. The media commented that if an independent funeral service center is set up in accordance with the reform plan, the financial department will supervise and manage the income and expenditure, and change the original practice of exclusive operation and self-financing by the civil affairs department, and the civil affairs department will only assume a simple manager role; The production and sale of funeral supplies will be market-oriented in accordance with the national funeral management regulations and administrative licensing. Funeral supplies originally monopolized by funeral management departments will gradually open to the market, allowing fair competition, and the problem of inflated prices of funeral supplies will be effectively controlled. However, some critics believe that the funeral industry has become a profiteering industry because of traditional customs, and the funeral atmosphere of comparison, which has long been influenced by feudal ideas, has also played a role in fueling the situation to some extent. It seems that the bigger the funeral of the living, the more luxurious it is, and the more filial to the dead. From this point of view, if the bad social atmosphere can't be reversed, then "huge profits in the funeral industry" and "high funeral expenses" can really be called "one is willing to fight and one is willing to suffer" (Source: Dayang.com's "Ocean Direct" reporter Chen Jian reported)

The opinions of netizens are opposite to each other:

Advantages:

Anonymous netizen: Have to go through psychological barrier. This year's income 1.8 million is understandable. Don't say that you are facing your body, and you are afraid to see others get hurt.

Anonymous netizen: "In this special industry, the income does not exceed 20,000 a month, which is acceptable. Imagine if you had to face the parting of the living and the dead every day in your life, what difference would your mentality and spirit be. Star citizens accept the higher income of ordinary employees in the funeral service center, whether the tax is normal, and other issues are counted separately. "

Anonymous netizen: This job is beyond ordinary people's ability. What are you going to do if I give you 200,000 yuan? I have to face bad things every day. If I were you, I can't do it! Treat people's high income with a correct attitude. The price paid by their high income is unimaginable to people outside our circle! First of all, neither I nor my relatives are employees in this industry. I just learned about the bitterness of funeral staff in the newspaper before.

Anonymous netizen: "If you are brave enough, you can not die. I went to the hospital and my family went bankrupt. I might as well die. "

Objection:

Anonymous netizen: Strong anger! ! Relevant departments can intervene in the investigation. Ordinary employees are 6.5438+0.8 million, and leaders are not 6.5438+0.8 million. If the funeral home is treated so well, it will rob the families of the deceased and make them worse! ! ! ! !

Anonymous netizen: The media's report on the exorbitant fees in the funeral industry has a long history, but it has never been solved. The reason is intriguing. Monopoly industries are actually like this.

Anonymous netizen: From birth to death, they were defeated by monopoly industries. It's hard enough for the families of the deceased. It is estimated that most of them have had massive bleeding in their pockets during their hospitalization, and they need to be searched again.

Netizen Huang _ Connie: "The high salary is true. I have a classmate who works in it after graduating from college. The annual income is higher than what I call the sales department of a foreign company. What a shame! "
