During the Spring Festival, there is a seasonal shortage of workers in the service industry, manufacturing and other industries due to the return of employees to their hometowns. Some enterprises retain and recruit people by raising wages, giving red envelopes, giving gift packages, arranging compensatory leave, etc., to ensure the normal operation of production and life.
Ten days before the Spring Festival, the salary is 8,000 yuan", "the salary is 10,000 yuan, it is better to be on duty to earn money when you go home for the New Year", "Winter vacation work, including food and accommodation, work is not tired, and the price of a single is high", "You can advance, you can sleep lazy, and you don't work overtime......".Recently, these high-paying and urgent job postings on job boards have been quite tempting.
Approaching the Spring Festival, what industry is most in short supply? How much money can I earn and what benefits can I earn if I stay on the job or work for a short time during the Spring Festival? Do these positions require high technical skills? Recently, the reporter visited the labor market in Beijing.
It is difficult to find a housekeeper, and the daily salary can reach 1,000 yuan
With the Spring Festival approaching, there is a large demand for labor in housekeeping, catering and other industries, which has become the "main force" of recruitment.
On the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, dust and sweep the house. "Many families have begun to sweep the dust and dirt, say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, and the housekeeping market has also entered the "hot order" mode. According to data from relevant platforms, in January, the demand for housekeeping increased by 2 times compared with the previous month, and the number of orders for whole-house cleaning increased by 300%. The reporter saw on a life service platform that the appointment registration of a number of housekeeping service companies showed that they were not able to make an appointment before the holiday.
The soaring demand for housekeeping has doubled the daily wages of housekeeping workers. Aunt Zhang, a cleaner from Hubei, usually takes orders on social platforms and service platforms. Due to her hard work, she has accumulated a lot of customer resources, and as the Spring Festival approaches, many old customers contact to make appointments.

Aunt Zhang revealed.

In order to cope with the shortage of personnel caused by the return of employees to their hometowns, many catering stores have increased recruitment efforts to ensure normal operation before and after the Spring Festival.
It is expected that there will be a wave of consumption peaks during the Spring Festival. The staff of a hot pot restaurant near Xizhimen in Beijing told reporters, "We are making preparations and continuing to recruit waiters and kitchen staff, with a basic salary of 5,000 yuan, commissions and bonuses are calculated separately, plus Spring Festival red envelope rewards, and the income should be no problem with more than 10,000 yuan." ”
Short-term and part-time employment is the mainstay, and the work threshold is low
The reporter noticed that in order to ensure the employment of workers during the Spring Festival, some recruitment platforms opened a special recruitment session for short-term workers during the Spring Festival. In addition to housekeeping and catering, couriers, delivery riders, hairstylists, cinema ticket inspectors, supermarket salesmen, bubble tea shop waiters and other life service positions and some manufacturing general workers have a large amount of labor. Recruitment is mainly part-time and short-term employment, and most of the recruitment positions do not require high technical skills.
Recently, a number of express companies issued announcements to launch the "Spring Festival does not close" service model. For the delivery staff who receive orders during the Spring Festival, cash subsidies will be provided in the form of order receiving rewards.
According to the company system, in addition to 3 times the salary of the Spring Festival duty, there are special rewards, the monthly income must be more than 10,000 yuan, in our site, choose to go home and stay at the post for the New Year, about half and half, many people are willing to stay.

The New Year is approaching, from household cleaning, personal beauty, hairdressing, nail art "three-piece set", to the early purchase of special New Year goods and the preparation of a sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the pre-holiday consumption surge, which has brought a shortage of personnel in some industries.
After tidying up the house, you have to "pinch yourself" too. At 10 p.m. on January 31, there were still customers queuing up in a barber shop in Beijing's Haidian District, "The year was our busiest time, and recently it closes after 11 or 2 o'clock in the evening." Compared with daily life, customers have higher requirements for New Year's hairstyles, and are more willing to dye and perm and make changes.

Take multiple measures at the same time to alleviate the tension of employment
In order to ensure employment during the Spring Festival, some employers have resorted to "doing everything they can" to retain and recruit people, increase wages, give red envelopes, give gift packages, and arrange compensatory leave ......
Years ago, everyone was preparing for the New Year, and it is currently at the peak of express delivery.

Wang Guihua, the head of a housekeeping service company in Beijing's Haidian District, told reporters, "We have long carried out statistics on the stay in Beijing during the Spring Festival for housekeepers, nurses, and confinement wives. At present, the aunts who stay in Beijing are all agreed by the customers very early, and after the Spring Festival, they will arrange for the holiday and return to their hometowns according to their personal circumstances. ”
At the same time, the relevant departments are also taking multiple measures to stabilize employment and ensure employment. Taking Beijing as an example, before and after the Spring Festival, Beijing organized nearly 1,000 recruitment activities, and went deep into rural areas, communities, enterprises, etc., to carry out activities such as condolences and blessings, folk performances, etc., to enrich the cultural life of the festival, so that the majority of migrant workers can return to their hometowns and work safely and smoothly during the Spring Festival, and stay in Beijing with warmth and peace of mind.
In order to alleviate the shortage of labor, the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Commerce recently issued a notice saying that it will continue to carry out the Spring Festival domestic service market supply guarantee action from February 2 to 24, and reward the participating enterprises with a maximum of 500,000 yuan to ensure that domestic service personnel stay in Beijing to ensure supply. The Beijing Housekeeping Service Association also issued an initiative to housekeeping enterprises, reminding customers to care about the psychological state of housekeepers and try to retain housekeepers as hard as possible.
For those who stayed in Beijing to work during the Spring Festival, we invited their families to Beijing to spend the reunion together. Wang Guihua said, "The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is also ready, and the store closes early on Chinese New Year's Eve, giving everyone a full sense of ceremony, celebrating the New Year together, and wishing the new year a smooth and prosperous year!" ”
