In recent years, with the changes in the economic situation, the staffing of some central enterprises, civil servants and public institutions has attracted widespread attention. It has been argued that there are too many people in these industries and that mass layoffs should be carried out. However, this is not entirely the case.
First of all, let's look at the central enterprises. Central enterprises are important enterprises dominated by state-owned capital, undertaking major national projects and strategic industries. Although some central enterprises may have surplus personnel, on the whole, central enterprises still need to retain a considerable number of personnel to complete the important tasks. In addition, the staffing of central enterprises is not static, and with the adjustment of enterprise development strategy and business, the staffing is also constantly adjusted and optimized. Simply proposing large-scale layoffs can affect the long-term development of the company.
The civil service is an important part of the functioning of the state apparatus. On the one hand, with the reform and optimization of the state administrative system, it is true that some civil servant functions may be adjusted or reduced. On the whole, however, the number of civil servants corresponds to the country's system and scale of development. Too little civil service may affect the efficient conduct of various services. On the other hand, the recruitment of civil servants has implemented a performance-based appraisal mechanism, and the increase or decrease of personnel is also constantly being adjusted and optimized.
Public institutions are important institutions that provide public goods and services to the society, and their staffing should also match business needs. Some public institutions may need to appropriately reduce their personnel due to business adjustments, but in most cases, as long as public institutions carry out public welfare business in accordance with laws and regulations, their staffing scale should remain relatively stable to ensure business development.
Generally speaking, the staffing problem of central enterprises, civil servants and public institutions cannot be simply summarized as "all major layoffs". The staffing of these units is constantly being adjusted and optimized, and it is normal for some personnel to be reasonably reduced. However, we should all the more be aware of the important role of these units and their personnel in the state system and social services, and the adjustment of their staffing should also be stable so as not to affect their normal work. Only by making scientific adjustments according to the actual situation can we solve the problem of staffing.
