The Spring Festival holiday has just ended, and the industrial parks in the Pearl River Delta are once again bustling. As of February 10th, more than 16 million migrant workers have returned to Guangdong, accounting for 82.9% of the total number of people who went home before the holiday, a 0.7 percentage point increase compared to last year. Over 90% of enterprises in Guangdong have been detected to resume operations.

Da Wei, from Hechi, Guangxi, brought his wife and son to Guangzhou East Railway Station after the holiday to attend the New Year job fair. Within half an hour, he received interview invitations from three companies. He said the government provided chartered buses and covered travel expenses. The government also helped connect him with job opportunities, making it both hassle-free and cost-effective.

The period around the Spring Festival is a peak time for labor demand in Guangdong. The province made early preparations to guide migrant workers back to their jobs. The local human resources and social security departments coordinated with transportation and railway departments, planning to run over 20 special trains for workers returning to their posts after the holiday. So far, 19 special trains have been operated, along with more than 100 chartered bus trips, transporting over 12,000 people back to Guangdong for work.

Meanwhile, various regions in Guangdong have implemented practical measures. Guangzhou offers an 800-yuan round-trip transportation subsidy to individuals from collaborative poverty-alleviation areas who come to Guangzhou for employment. Zhongshan provides subsidies for companies that charter buses to transport employees across provinces and cities. Yunfu offers subsidies to migrant workers from other provinces who return to their jobs independently.

To address the labor demand peak, Guangdong plans to organize over 2,000 recruitment events both online and offline, having already held more than 700. Guangdong companies have also proactively traveled to Guizhou and Guangxi to host recruitment events. Positions such as skilled jobs and those suitable for parents have become effective strategies for attracting talent.

According to data, from the post-holiday period to February 10th, the overall job vacancy ratio in the labor market across the province was above 1.08. The average number of recruitment plans by companies in February increased by 14.6% year-on-year and by 85.1% month-on-month. The wage levels for general workers remained stable compared to the previous year.

Going forward, human resources and social security departments across the province will fully focus on achieving the annual target of adding over 1.1 million new urban jobs and maintaining the urban surveyed unemployment rate of around 5.5%. These efforts aim to stabilize employment and vitalize the economy.
