The management philosophy and system of the enterprise are closely related to and mutually influenced by its legal and standardized employment. On the one hand, the concept and system of enterprise management directly shape the corporate culture and the working environment of employees, which further affects the satisfaction and loyalty of employees; On the other hand, a standardized employment system can ensure the legitimacy and stability of enterprise operations, reduce the occurrence of labor disputes, and protect the good reputation and market competitiveness of enterprises. In order to prevent labor disputes at the source, enterprises should start from the following aspects to shape their management system:
(1) MingAccurate labor contracts and employment policiesAll employment contracts should strictly comply with the requirements of laws and regulations, and clearly stipulate the key factors such as the employee's entry requirements, regular assessment methods, job responsibilities, remuneration and benefits, working hours and vacation attendance system. At the same time, companies should have clear and fair leave and promotion policies.
Good communication mechanism:Enterprises should establish effective communication channels to ensure that employees' opinions and suggestions can be heard and responded to in a timely manner. This includes measures such as conducting regular employee satisfaction surveys, setting up suggestion boxes, and holding employee representative meetings.
3) MalePositive performance appraisal system:Ensure the fairness and transparency of the performance appraisal process to avoid unfair appraisals that cause dissatisfaction and controversy among employees.
4) PeiTraining and development opportunities:Provide employees with ongoing career training and development opportunities to help them develop their skills, increase job satisfaction and loyalty.

Through your experience as a mediator of the Beijing Association for the Promotion of Multi-mediation Development, what is your deep understanding of the practice of labor dispute resolution? What role does mediation play in resolving labor disputes?
High red
Mediation plays a vital role in resolving labor disputes. Compared to court proceedings,The mediation process is faster and more cost-effective, which significantly reduces the legal fees and time costs for both parties, especially for small businesses and individual workers with limited resources. The mediation process emphasizes the preservation and restoration of the relationship between the partiesIn disputes involving indefinite-term employment contracts, mediation can help both parties maintain a good cooperative relationship and avoid the deterioration of the relationship that may be brought about by litigation. Mediation provides greater flexibility, enabling both parties to find a solution based on their own circumstances and needs, and the mediation process is private, helping to protect the privacy and trade secrets of both parties. Since mediation is based on the results of negotiation between the partiesSolutions are often more acceptable to both parties, which is different from a court decision that may result in dissatisfaction of one or both parties. During the mediation process, the mediator guides the parties to negotiate in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, which not only helps to enhance the understanding and awareness of labor laws on both parties, but also plays a positive role in preventing future disputes.
In short, mediation has become a humane and harmonious way to resolve labor disputes due to its effectiveness, economy and maintenance of the relationship between the two parties, which is in line with the overall trend of the society's pursuit of harmonious labor relations.

You once held a course called "How Young Lawyers Handle Labor Dispute Cases". Based on your rich practical experience, what advice do you have for young labor lawyers when handling related cases?
High red
For young lawyers, handling labor dispute cases is actually challenging and not easy. This requires not only precise legal knowledge, in-depth case analysis skills, but also good client communication skills. Based on my practical experience, I would like to make the following suggestions for young labor lawyers:
In-depth understanding of labor laws and regulationsHandling labor cases requires an in-depth understanding of labor laws and regulations, judicial interpretations, local regulations and related policies, as well as a mastery of the adjudication standards and minutes of various meetings for labor dispute cases. This requires lawyers to not only be proficient in the relevant laws, but also to be able to understand the legislative purpose and background of the Labor Law in order to correctly apply the law in the handling of cases. A thorough understanding of the background of the case:When handling labor dispute cases, it is important to have a thorough understanding of the background of the case, including the employment relationship between the parties, the cause of the dispute, and previous communication records. This helps the lawyer to better analyze the case and develop effective coping strategies. Good customer communication:Young lawyers need to learn how to communicate effectively with their clients and understand their specific needs and expectations. At the same time, the legal issues, the progress of the case and the potential risks should be clearly explained to the client, and the client should be assisted in making reasonable decisions. Strengthen negotiation and mediation skills:Many labor dispute cases can be resolved through mediation or negotiation. Therefore, upgrading these skills is crucial for young lawyers, not only to resolve disputes quickly, but also to help clients save time and costs. Focus on practical experience:In addition to theoretical learning, practical experience is equally important. Young lawyers should be involved in handling as many cases as possible and improve their professional skills and experience through practice. Continuous learning and progress:Labor law is a growing field, and young lawyers should continue to learn the latest legal knowledge, participate in seminars and training. Focus on professional ethics and responsibility:When handling labor dispute cases, lawyers should adhere to professional ethics, represent the interests of clients fairly and objectively, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of employees. These recommendations are designed to help young employment lawyers become more professional and efficient in handling labor dispute cases and lay a solid foundation for their career development.
Make good use of AI empowerment:
An emerging force in the future of legal services
Ms. Gao advocates that legal professionals should embrace the wave of artificial intelligence and digitalization, which she believes will revolutionize legal services.
Legal Press
In the era of digital economy, new economic formats and forms of employment are emerging one after another. In your opinion, what opportunities and challenges does digitalization and artificial intelligence bring to labor legal services? What are the implications for lawyers?
High red
The era of artificial intelligence is a replacement similar to the Industrial Revolution, and lawyers should actively embrace it. Because where there are challenges, there are opportunities, and when there are crises, there are opportunities; Therefore, for the traditional legal profession, especially labor lawyers who do traditional business, they do face some challenges, including learning about digitalization or artificial intelligence applications. However, there are many communication platforms and fields today, and cross-border legal technology products have become more mature, and labor lawyers can and need more communication to adapt to the integration of law, technology or other fields in the next 10 or 20 years. In the future, no matter what industry, especially the lawyer industry, if AI can be actively applied, the work efficiency will be greatly improved, and the labor cost will also be reduced. Of course, this challenge will have some threshold requirements for young lawyers, so there are limited opportunities for training.
With the advancement of legal technology, my team and I are also looking forward to further integrating advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence and big data analytics, to improve the efficiency and accuracy of case handling and bring more innovative service experiences to our clients.
Our current plan is to expand our services to cover emerging areas ranging from traditional labor legal services to employee benefit plans, international labor law consulting, remote work management, and moreto adapt to changing market demands; It also strengthens team building and professional training to enhance the professional ability of department members, especially the training of young lawyers, to ensure that the team can continue to inject fresh blood and innovative thinking.
Through the realization of these visions, I will lead the team to continue to provide high-quality and innovative services to our clients, create a more fulfilling and challenging working environment for employees, and maintain the leading position of Yingke's human resources and labor legal affairs department in the industry."
