Recently, a well-known central enterprise issued a notice requiring that in addition to the normal payment of wages to school-recruited employees, other employees will suspend the payment of wages and only pay the personal part of the social security provident fund.
This incident has aroused widespread concern. As a representative of a state-owned enterprise, the company's experience heralds the arrival of a cold winter for the entire construction industry. We should not ignore this situation, but face it up to the problem and respond positively.
Behind this incident is the cash flow problems experienced by the entire construction industry due to the downturn in the real estate market. Due to the cessation of construction of the project, it was difficult to recover the payment, which directly affected the operation of the enterprise. In the face of the industry downturn, it is inevitable for companies to take measures to reduce labor costs. But what we should pay more attention to is the deep-seated problems in the construction industry that are reflected in it.
The construction industry has developed too fast and has insufficient supervision, resulting in extensive project management, uncontrolled costs, and worrying quality. The competition between enterprises is too fierce, and the phenomenon of malicious competition and arbitrary price reduction is serious. At the same time, there is a lack of good cooperation between the construction industry and the real estate industry, and the problem of capital is prominent. These problems gradually emerged in the cold winter.
For employees, the impact of unpaid wages is enormous. Life becomes untenable, and there is a lot of emotional stress. However, most employees choose to understand and tolerate the company's plight and stick to their jobs. This level of responsibility and dedication is admirable. Employees are the most valuable asset of the company, and we should value their interests and feelings. Only by making them feel respected can they contribute wholeheartedly to the company.
In the face of difficulties, the company needs to transform and upgrade, carry out technological innovation and management innovation to improve competitiveness. Reasonable use of the law within the legal framework to protect their own interests. Employees need to have a positive mindset and maintain perseverance. The industry needs to integrate resources, break boundaries, and form a win-win situation. Regulators need to improve policies to regulate the development of the industry.
Every industry has its ups and downs, and seemingly difficult times are often pregnant with opportunities. Companies and individuals with foresight and tenacity will eventually overcome the cold winter and usher in a beautiful spring. The development of the industry should not only look at the immediate benefits, but also focus on the long-term.
History is just a passing moment, and the future is a new chapter that we will write. As this cold winter comes, we need the spirit of helping each other and rejoicing in suffering. I believe that the light is ahead, unite and cooperate, and we will witness the rebirth and revival of the construction industry!
Specifically, the measures taken by a well-known central enterprise to suspend the payment of wages directly affected the vital interests of tens of thousands of employees of the enterprise. For young people who have just stepped into the society, ushering in such a dilemma will undoubtedly have great disappointment with them in the company and the industry.
As a representative of state-owned central enterprises, its predicament indicates that the cold winter of the entire industry has come. We must reflect and examine what problems and hidden dangers the rapid development of the construction industry has brought prosperity to us.
Relying only on the model of pursuing scale expansion and short-term interests, it has caused vicious competition in the industry, quality worries, and chaotic project management. This "cold winter" is a reckoning with such an extensive development model.
At the same time, the coordination mechanism between the construction industry and the real estate industry has not yet been established. After the completion of the construction project, the sales payment cannot be timely**, which directly affects the cash flow of the enterprise. This development path of over-reliance on upstream and downstream industries also requires us to reflect deeply. Only by breaking the boundary restrictions and forming a virtuous circle of win-win cooperation in different industries can the entire industrial chain be upgraded.
In addition, the chaotic competitive environment within the construction industry is also an issue that we need to face squarely. The phenomenon of malicious competition and arbitrary price reduction has not been effectively curbed, which not only disrupts the market order, but also makes it difficult for many construction companies to continue. The healthy development of the industry needs to get rid of the short-sighted concept of competition and form a system.
1. Standardized market rules.
In the face of such a severe industry environment, enterprises and employees are actively seeking coping strategies. Legal means have become an important means for enterprises to recover arrears, and they have also played a deterrent effectThe employees choose to stick to their posts and accompany the company through difficulties, which reflects a high sense of social responsibility. It is precisely because of this spirit that we should learn from and carry forward.
Of course, we also see that there are opportunities in crises. As state-owned enterprises, they are backed by the support of the state and will certainly be able to overcome temporary difficulties. The rights and interests of employees will also be safeguarded with the efforts of all parties. More importantly, the entire industry will deeply reflect on and recognize the problems in this cold winter, so as to embark on a standardized and healthy development path.
Historical experience tells us that it is the eternal law of this world that life is endless, and that the dead come back from the dead. The construction industry is no exception, and it will eventually be reborn like a phoenix in Nirvana. And each and every one of us should embrace new opportunities with a positive and optimistic attitude and a state of unremitting self-improvement.
