As young people, we may be unfamiliar with the concepts of "cadre identity" and "worker identity". In the era of planned economy, these two concepts are very important, and they represent people's professional identity and status in state organs, public institutions, state-owned enterprises and other organizations.
Cadre status usually refers to those who hold management and leadership positions in the above-mentioned organizations, and they usually have high academic qualifications, professional titles, and professional abilities, and assume important responsibilities for formulating policies, managing teams, and driving business development. Worker status refers to those who are busy in front-line positions such as production and service, and they are mainly responsible for performing tasks and completing specific tasks.
In the Internet industry, the traditional concept of cadre identity and worker identity has gradually disappeared. Instead, job titles and positions are determined based on professional skills, work experience, and business competence. For example, positions such as programmers, designers, and product managers place more emphasis on individual skills and experience, rather than being divided by cadres or workers.
However, even if both cadres and workers are placed under social security management after retirement, there are still differences in treatment between them. This difference is mainly reflected in the amount of pensions. Normally, the pension of cadres is somewhat higher than that of workers. This is because cadres tend to have higher salaries and benefits during their tenure, and they also pay more social security contributions.
In addition to pensions, there are also certain differences between cadres and workers in terms of medical security. Cadres can enjoy better medical security services after retirement, including higher reimbursement rates for medical expenses and better medical services. Workers, on the other hand, may only have access to basic health care services.
To illustrate the problem, let's look at a specific example. Suppose there is a 55-year-old cadre, Mr. Zhang, and a 50-year-old worker, Mr. Li, both planning to retire in two years. Based on their social security payment records and salary levels, we can calculate that their pensions after retirement are 3,000 yuan and 2,500 yuan per month, respectively.
In the first year after retirement, the social security department decided to adjust the pension due to factors such as prices** and economic development. The adjustment is 5%. Mr. Zhang's pension is adjusted to 3,150 yuan, while Mr. Li's pension is adjusted to 2,625 yuan. It can be seen that even with the same adjustment range, the pension of cadres is still higher than that of workers after adjustment.
In the second year after retirement, the social security department decided to increase the reimbursement ratio of medical expenses due to the rapid medical expenses**. Mr. Zhang's reimbursement rate for medical expenses was increased to 80%, while Mr. Li's reimbursement rate for medical expenses was increased to 70%. This means that Mr. Zhang's medical protection is better.
Nevertheless, we have to admit that the difference between the identities of cadres and workers has gradually faded in today's society. Modern society focuses more on an individual's abilities, talents, and contributions than on the identity labels of the past. Therefore, we should pay more attention to personal career development, skill upgrading, and experience accumulation to better adapt to the needs and development of modern society.
As for future trends, we cannot decide whether the identities of cadres and workers will disappear. But what is certain is that with the continuous progress and development of society, the traditional concept of identity will gradually be replaced by a new professional identity. We should actively adapt to this change and strive to improve our professional skills and business capabilities to better meet the challenges and opportunities of the future.
