Study of Blue-collar 'Labor Shortage' after the Financial Crisis

摘要

With the 2008 financial crisis sweeping the world, China's economy was once hit hardly. In 2009, by the joint efforts of the government, enterprises, social communities, China's economy achieved a V-shaped rebound. Import and export recovered rapidly. As the economy picking up, corporate orders surged, but companies have been slow to find enough suitable workers — a blue-collar "labor shortage" spreaded from coastal cities to the inland area. In this paper, we'll analyze the cause of this new round of blue-collar "labor shortage" from the perspective of human resource management. And we'll try to provide multiple solutions to the government, businesses, and schools based on China's specific condition.
