装卸工是港口生产的基本骨干力量。多年来,我们一直强调要稳定第一线装卸工队伍,做了不少工作并取得了一定效果。但是也不可否认,仍有一部份人不安心装卸工作,还有人要求调离,甚至有人辞职。必须看到,之所以出现这样的情况,与现今社会上装卸工职业声望低有着直接关系。 所谓职业声望是指一种职业在社会上和在群众中的威信,它包括一种职业的名气、吸引性、社会意义及其它价值特性。职业声望是一种客观存在,既不能随意提高或贬低,也不能靠宣传而轻易改变。 Loading and unloading workers are the basic backbone of the port production. Over the years, we have all along emphasized that we must stabilize the first-line loading and unloading teams, did a great deal of work and achieved some results. However, it is undeniable that there are still some people who are not comfortable with loading and unloading their work. Others have called for the transfer of people and even some have resigned. It must be observed that such a situation is directly related to the low prestige of working people in the modern society. The so-called occupational prestige refers to a profession in the community and among the masses of prestige, which includes a professional reputation, attractiveness, social significance and other value characteristics. Professional prestige is an objective reality that can neither be raised nor degraded arbitrarily nor easily changed by propaganda.
