职工下岗已成为当前社会经济生活中最引人关注的问题。“下岗”这个90 年代中期才出现的新名词,如今频频见诸报刊媒体。老百姓对此的关注 程度甚至超过了几年前的物价问题。下岗问题不仅困扰着普通百姓,也着实让各级政府感到了巨大的压力。超千万的下岗大军能否得到安置,不但影响到国企改革和经济发展,更牵动着社会稳定。 与此同时,我们面临严峻的就业形势。据预测,国企改革将再产生约1500万下岗职工,“九五”期间,城镇新成长的劳动力共有5400万,农村剩余劳动力2.14亿。而这些恰恰发生在我国社会保障制度尚未形成、社会保险改革起步阶段。已实施的失业保险对失业人员的救济和促进再就业的能力还很有限。那么,中国能解决下岗再就业问题吗? Staff laid-off has become the most concern in the current social and economic life. The new term “laid-off” emerged in the mid-1990s and is now frequently seen in the press media. People’s attention even more than a few years ago, the price issue. The laid-off issue not only plagues ordinary people, but it also makes the government at all levels feel tremendous pressure. Whether tens of millions of laid-off troops can be resettled will not only affect the reform of state-owned enterprises and economic development, but also affect social stability. In the meantime, we face a severe employment situation. It is predicted that about 15 million laid-off workers will be re-created in the reform of state-owned enterprises. During the Ninth Five-year Plan period, a total of 54 million newly-added laborers and an additional 214 million rural surplus labor force have been produced in urban areas. And these happened precisely in our country social security system has not yet formed, the initial stage of social insurance reform. Unemployment insurance has been implemented to relieve unemployment and to promote re-employment. So, China can solve the problem of laid-off re-employment it?
