New Deal for Temporary Workers in Institutions

The so-called temporary workers should refer to short-term contract workers, part-time contract workers or contract workers whose term is to complete a certain task. The revision of the Labor Contract Law is aimed at labor dispatch workers, who sign contracts with labor dispatch companies, and the labor dispatch companies send them to employers. The labor dispatch worker is not exactly the same as the so-called temporary worker, because he has no labor relationship with the employer and his company is in the labor dispatch company. The so-called temporary workers' labor relations are in their own units, which is different.

A temporary worker as opposed to a regular worker. Temporary workers refer to those who work temporarily in the unit, and temporary workers refer to temporary and seasonal employment whose service period in the unit does not exceed one year. It is also possible to extend the time limit, but only if both parties reach an understanding.

The scope of "laborer" in Article 2 of the Labor Law is very wide, including both regular employees and temporary workers. Therefore, no matter whether it is a regular worker or a temporary worker, as long as they have formed a labor relationship with the employer, even if this relationship only exists for one day, all the rights and interests enjoyed by regular workers should be enjoyed by temporary workers. Farmers who work in cities should not think that they are too different from regular workers, but they cannot fight for the rights and interests endowed by the labor law according to law.

Shortcomings of temporary workers

The existence of a large number of temporary workers has brought many disadvantages to economic and social development. Temporary workers are unstable and may be dismissed at any time, and it is difficult to safeguard the rights and interests of workers: without insurance, no one is responsible for work-related injuries; Different pay for equal work and dual-track employment are not conducive to social fairness, justice, harmony and stability. For enterprises, hiring temporary workers seems to reduce the cost of labor. But every time you recruit temporary workers, it means that you need to start training from scratch, which invisibly increases the training cost. In addition, most of the temporary workers are unskilled and the quality of their work is difficult to guarantee, which is obviously not conducive to the long-term development of enterprises.

On the other hand, temporary workers can easily become a channel for relevant parties to shirk their responsibilities. These things may indeed be done by temporary workers, because they have no long-term awareness and it is difficult to promote social progress.

According to Article 68 of the Labor Contract Law

Part-time employment refers to a form of employment in which hours are the main reward, and the average daily working hours of workers in the same employer generally do not exceed four hours, and the cumulative working hours per week do not exceed twenty-four hours.
