从战略高度看待并解决就业问题

Solutions to Employment Problems:A Strategic Perspective

就业是民生的基础,也是经济社会发展的重要基石。解决好就业问题的战略性意义不仅体现在充分就业和高质量就业本身就是经济发展的重要目标,也体现在劳动力市场的有效运行在实现高质量发展中的战略性地位。因此,需要从战略高度看待并解决就业问题。在新的发展阶段,进一步扩大就业面临诸多新的挑战,包括就业非农化进程式微、劳动年龄人口规模持续缩小、劳动参与率下降、人口老龄化、青年就业困难以及劳动力市场的工作任务和技能需求变化带来的系列挑战等。实现高质量充分就业的战略目标,需要把握就业问题的长期性,紧盯主要矛盾,抓住核心环节;也需要根据经济发展和劳动力市场形势的变化,调整政策的方向和重点,统筹积极就业政策与宏观经济政策,促进就业带动能力强的行业的发展,消除就业歧视,为劳动者创造更好的就业环境。

Employment serves as the foundation of people's livelihood and also an important cornerstone of economic and social development.The strategic significance of solving employment problems is reflected not only in the fact that full and high-quality employment itself is an important goal of economic development,but in the strategic position of the effective operation of the labor market in the country's efforts to achieve high-quality development.Therefore,employment issues need to be viewed and tackled from a strategic perspective.In the new stage of development,China faces many new challenges as it further expands employment,including the weakening momentum of non-agricultural employment growth,the continued shrinkage of working-age population,the decline in labor participation rate,the aging population,young people facing difficulties in finding jobs,and challenges brought by changes in job and skill demands in the labor market.To achieve the strategic goal of high-quality and full employment,we need to grasp the long-term nature of employment issues,focus on main contradictions,and deal with core factors;we also need to adjust the direction and focus of policies in accordance with changes in economic development and labor market conditions,coordinate pro-active employment policies and macroeconomic policies,promote development of industries that are more capable of creating jobs,eliminate employment discrimination,and create a better employment environment for workers.
