The front-page headline comments of the Second Daily and the concern of the Central Party School's "Theoretical Dynamics" were so cool that the Langliu Municipal Government went from obscurity to suddenly became known to the whole country. After a period of chaos with the Langliu Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, Zhang Pingchang, mayor of the Langliu Municipal People's Government, and Xiao Ding, executive vice mayor, jointly accepted CCTV's "Focus Interview". Interview with the column. The interview was conducted in a small conference room of the Langliu Municipal Government, which was already open in May and the weather was getting hotter. The air conditioner in the small conference room of the municipal government blows cool air, leaving the outdoor heat out and having a cool feeling.

"Mayor Zhang and Vice Mayor Xiao, I want to ask you first. What is the reason why the Langliu Municipal Government attaches so much importance to the issue of laid-off reemployment? CCTV reporter Jin Yiping asked. Zhang Pingchang and Xiao Ding glanced at each other. He replied: "The purpose of our party and government is to serve the people, and this has set requirements for the nature of our government's work. Service, what service? Create all good conditions so that people can live and work in peace and contentment. At present, our country is beginning to solve the problems left over from the history of some state-owned enterprises, and the reform of the enterprise system is one of the methods. There will inevitably be a labor pain in the reform of the state-owned enterprise system, and this labor pain is that many workers will be laid off and unemployed. After these workers are laid off and unemployed, they still have to live, so they may have to do things like setting up stalls and occupying roads. However, this kind of thing is illegal for a city, and it has a very bad impact on the comprehensive management of the city. We in Langliu City are applying for a national civilized city and a national health city, and comprehensive urban management is our top priority, but we see that the root cause of many problems lies in the fact that laid-off workers have not been properly resettled and arranged. That is why we have made up our minds and made great efforts to grasp the issue of laid-off workers and reemployment as the No. 1 important task

"You mean to say. Some of the problems presented in the city exhibition are actually related to the laid-off employees of state-owned enterprises. ”

"Yes

"The original intention of the Langliu Municipal Government to make great efforts to grasp the problem of laid-off reemployment is to link laid-off reemployment with comprehensive urban management."

"Yes, we believe that for the problem of comprehensive urban management, we should not only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, but also solve the problem from the root. As long as the problem of these laid-off workers is solved, the burden of comprehensive urban management will be reduced by half

Jin Yiping nodded. He asked again and said, "Vice Mayor Xiao." As far as we know, you are the main municipal government leader who is specifically responsible for the comprehensive urban management of Langliu City in the recent period. As for the point that Mayor Zhang just mentioned, were you the first to recognize and point it out? ”

Xiao Xiao smiled and said: "Mayor Zhang's point of view is the consensus of our Langliu Municipal Government, and the importance of laid-off reemployment is not the meaning of one or two leaders in our municipal government, but everyone feels that as long as this problem is solved, many problems related to it will be solved naturally."

Recently, a couple in Jiangzhong District, Hanchang City, Xiaobei Province had an argument with Chengguansheng, which finally led to a miscarriage of his wife.

Conflicts like those between chengguan and vendors have been frequent recently, what do you think is the root of the conflict? How to resolve this contradiction? Jin Yiping continued to ask.

Xiao Ding restrained his smile and said, "First of all, I express my deep regret for this incident and express my condolences to the victims. As for the source of the contradiction. I made this clear at the last meeting of our comprehensive urban management work in Langliu. My point of view is that most of the traders live at the bottom of the city, doing a small business, earning a little money is only enough to support their families, the city management confiscated their means of livelihood, plus some unexplained fines, which is equivalent to cutting off the source of livelihood, they have to fight desperately, and conflicts and disputes will follow. ”

Jin Yiping asked: "There is an investigation that shows." The conflict between the urban management law enforcement department and the traders, most of which are related to punishment, and the public security organs, industrial and commercial departments, etc. will also issue fines, but there are few disputes between the urban management department, why is this? What do you think about this?

Xiao Yin thought for a moment and said: "Administrative punishment is a specific administrative act of an administrative entity to impose sanctions on citizens, legal persons or other organizations that violate administrative laws and norms. Violations of city management regulations are, of course, punished. But how and how much? In some areas, it is the urban management law enforcement personnel themselves who have the final say, and the amount of punishment is either high or low, or heavy or light. In some places, you can bargain, acquaintances can make a discount, and you can even use physical goods instead of fines. It can be seen that in the process of administrative punishment, administrative law enforcement agencies are given a lot of discretionary powers. What is Discretion? That is, within a certain range, law enforcement officers can freely determine the amount of punishment according to the violation. For example, for an outdoor billboard of the same size set up without authorization. It can be punished according to the relevant regulations. The fine of more than 2 yuan is more than 2 yuan, and the discretion is larger. For the same case, different law enforcement officers may have different punishment results. The penalty is too much and the penalty is less, and the on-site law enforcement officers have discretion. In addition to being dissatisfied with the amount of the penalty, some vendors also have no idea where the chengguan fines are going. For the above reasons, some people think that the fines have gone into the pockets of law enforcement officers; Some believe that the punishment of urban management varies from person to person, and that those who have a good relationship with urban management law enforcement personnel can generally be exempted from punishment or less punishment

So why do you think there are these misconceptions? For the vendors will not accept the external punishment. How can you improve your situation, and Cha Ping continued to ask.

Xiao Ding pondered for a moment and replied: "The reason is that the discretion of law enforcement officers is not restricted, and the parties have no right to know about administrative punishments. China's Administrative Punishment Law stipulates that administrative punishment should follow the principles of fairness and openness. The principle of fair punishment requires that the discretionary power of law enforcement personnel be limited to a certain extent, and that the exercise should be justified and justified. If discretion is abused at will, it will not only affect the fair image of the administrative law enforcement department, but also damage the legitimate rights and interests of the parties and the dignity of the law. The principle of openness of punishment requires law enforcement personnel to disclose to the parties concerned the basis for punishment, the amount of fines, and the whereabouts of fines

He paused for a moment and continued: "Since a few days ago, our Langliu City Urban Management Bureau has clearly stipulated how to determine the severity of illegal acts, which circumstances can be punished lightly, and which behaviors should be punished heavily, so as to standardize the discretion of law enforcement personnel. At the same time, the urban management bureau regularly publicizes the basis, amount and whereabouts of the punishment on the wall. Meet the parties' right to know about administrative punishments. If the parties still have doubts, they can always go to the urban management law enforcement team to check the fine stub

Jin Yiping said thank you, and then said to the camera: "By standardizing the discretion of law enforcement personnel and satisfying the people's right to know, it is equivalent to putting the entire process of urban management law enforcement under social supervision." The effect it brings is to enforce the law. Law enforcement officers do not dare to impose fines indiscriminately Traders have a bottom of the fine amount and are convinced by the punishment, so they will naturally slowly change from misunderstanding and resisting urban management law enforcement to understanding and supporting urban management law enforcement.

Regulating discretion and boldly publicizing punishments requires a bit of courage for urban management, which is equivalent to putting a "tight spell" on itself. In order to deal with the long-standing contradictions between the urban management and the vendors, and for the sake of social harmony, it is better to have more courage in such a "tight spell". ”

Then, he continued to turn his head and asked Zhang Pingchang: "Mayor Zhang, let's go back to the question just now, what kind of attitude do you think the government should take towards the issue of laid-off reemployment?" ”

Zhang Pingchang replied: "A large population is our basic national condition in China, and in the process of deepening enterprise reform, carrying out economic restructuring, and improving economic efficiency, the layoff of some workers is a problem that must be solved well. A reasonable unemployment rate is a sufficient and necessary condition for the smooth progress of social reproduction with expanded reproduction as the basic characteristic after the productive forces have reached a certain stage, and it is an active hormone for further economic development. However, an excessively high unemployment rate would jeopardize social stability. With the deepening of China's enterprise reform, technological progress, economic restructuring, and the continuous improvement of the socialist market economic system, the unemployment rate is also rising, and the problem of reemployment of workers has become more prominent. According to figures released by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security, in the first half of last year, the reemployment rate of laid-off workers nationwide was not too late, that is, only less than one of the four laid-off workers was reemployed. The CPC Central Committee and the Government Affairs Yuan attach great importance to the reemployment of laid-off workers and unemployed persons, and have put forward a series of important policies and measures. Local governments at all levels have actively implemented the spirit of the central authorities' directives, and although remarkable progress has been made in their work, the issue of reemployment of laid-off workers is not solved overnight, and it is still a major issue that has a bearing on whether or not society and the economy are stable. Comrade Xiao and I, as well as comrades of the city government, all believe that local governments should regard the reduction of unemployment rate and the creation of employment opportunities as an important goal of the social development strategy and an important task of the government's economic work

So what do you think the role of local governments should play in solving the problem of reemployment? Jin Yiping, the reporter of the focus interview, has the tenacity to break the casserole and ask to the end. Zhang Pingchang glanced at Xiao and motioned for him to answer this, Xiao Ding organized his language slightly, and said: "As some experts have pointed out, the problem of reemployment in China has both a total problem and a structural problem. Mr. Li, a well-known economist, said: "If it is a total problem, it is a common phenomenon. The main way to solve the problem is to increase the number of jobs by expanding the scale of investment; If it is mainly a structural problem and a temporary phenomenon caused by the economic cycle, then the main way to solve the problem is to adjust the industrial structure and employment structure. Increase investment in manpower training. I believe that no matter what the problem is, the role of local governments in reemployment will inevitably be reflected in both jobs and people. From the perspective of posts, there are mainly creating posts, existing posts, replacing posts, and protecting posts

"These four." Hillock. Words, can you be specific?

"The so-called job creation means that there was no such position, but through the efforts of the local government, this job has been created.

There are many channels for local governments to create a high position, which can be summarized as follows: The development of the non-public economy. 2. Open public welfare jobs. Local governments open all kinds of public welfare jobs in the community. A number of community employment bases and community employment projects can be formed. Arrange for more laid-off unemployed people to be re-employed in the community. 3. Cultivate new economic growth points. New economic growth points are often new employment points. Local governments should undoubtedly focus on cultivating new economic growth points. For example, there is a lot of potential to be tapped if the tertiary industry is vigorously developed. 4. Speed up the pace of construction of small towns. In the process of building small towns, many new jobs will inevitably be created. , we lead a street. It is built as a pedestrian street, a food street and other silting. In addition, we can achieve good results in solving the employment problem and intensify market construction. Market construction not only promotes the development of the local economy, but also a good way to solve the problem of reemployment.

The so-called current jobs are local governments looking for potential jobs for laid-off workers; The so-called job replacement is to help people change their original jobs; The so-called protection posts are to try to stabilize the posts of some special personnel. ”

"So as the prefecture-level city government that we know most about the issue of laid-off re-employment among the local governments we know now, does the Langliu municipal government have any more specific methods and measures on the issue of laid-off re-employment?" Jin Yiping asked.

Zhang Pingchang said: "Improve policies, strengthen services, and vigorously promote the reemployment of laid-off unemployed people. It is the consistent purpose of our Langliu Municipal Government. We believe that the market should play a fundamental role in the allocation of labor resources. With regard to the reemployment of laid-off and unemployed personnel, it is also necessary to adhere to the market-oriented employment mechanism and guide them to choose their own jobs and start their own businesses through the labor market, so as to achieve reemployment. Employment of laid-off and unemployed persons. The government can't do it, and it shouldn't do it. However, since China's labor market will remain in a buyer's market at present and for some time to come, laid-off unemployed people who lack competitiveness in market employment will only rely on the market mechanism for self-regulation. It is difficult to achieve reemployment, and it is necessary to increase the intensity of policy support. ”

Jin Yiping nodded, and Xiao Sheng continued with Zhang Pingchang's words: "For this reason, after summing up the experience of various places and learning from the successful practices of foreign countries, we first set a few principles on the starting point of formulating policies. According to statistics, three of the laid-off unemployed people who have now been reemployed are self-employed, engaged in small business, opened small restaurants, shopkeepers, and so on. One person can support a family by being employed. But on the whole, our current policy support for this is not strong enough, and the implementation is not good. In order to solve these problems, our city government has expanded the scope of practice to encourage self-employment. More preferential tax reduction and exemption policies have been formulated, the provisions on the exemption of various fees and fees have been reiterated, and the guarantee methods for small loans and the channels for subsidized funds have been clarified. In the past, the tax reduction and exemption policy for self-employment was limited to eight service industries for community residents, such as household cleaning and sanitation, primary health care, and elderly care services. This time, it was expanded to all industries except those restricted by the state. In addition to the exemption of business tax, urban maintenance and construction tax, education surcharge and income tax, all fees for management, registration and licenses are expressly exempted. ”

"The second is to encourage service-oriented enterprises to absorb laid-off unemployed people. The third is to encourage the separation of the main and auxiliary personnel of large and medium-sized state-owned enterprises that have the conditions to resettle surplus personnel. Fourth, it is against the "field." Personnel are provided with special employment assistance. We believe that the laid-off unemployed are over the age of women and men over the age of O. It is one of the most difficult groups to find employment. Need to implement a more preferential policy to promote reemployment Jin Yiping listened while nodding his head constantly, he is really worth this trip to Langliu. The two deputy mayors of Langliu Municipal Government are very young, especially this Vice Mayor Xiao, who is less than thirty years old! It can be said that it is the time for them to do their business, and this time Langliu City is at the forefront of the country in the arrangement and placement of laid-off and reemployed personnel, which is bound to attract the attention of the central authorities. You must know that the central government's reform of state-owned enterprises is constantly deepening, and the number of laid-off workers is also increasing, which is undoubtedly a huge unstable factor for the whole society, and Langliu City suddenly came out of nowhere when the central government was most concerned about the reemployment of laid-off workers, and brought a good start for local governments across the country in arranging for the reemployment of laid-off workers.

After the focus interview program team left, Zhang Pingchang and Xiao Zhen returned to their busy lives as before. In the Gufeng Development Zone, the construction of Anle Group Langliu Xinxiangyin Paper Company is in full swing; Gu Le had already begun to adjust to his new identity and stabilized his position in the Langliu City Public Security Bureau. None of this has changed.

The only change is that the phone calls between Yan Weiyu and Xiao Zhen seem to be gradually increasing, and the Internet always finds some reason for each other to call again, but later they dial the phone when there is nothing to do, not to say something, just to listen to each other's voices.

There's actually a subtle change. Even the eyes of the province began to be gradually attracted by Langliu. Secretary Yang Haoyuan also began to frequently give instructions on the issue of laid-off reemployment.

From June 2 to 4 of that year, CCTV's "Focus Interview" column broadcast a special program of "Reform Pioneers: Laid-off Reemployment and Comprehensive Urban Governance" in three episodes, in which Mayor Zhang Pingchang, who is in his forties, and Xiao Ding, the young and dazzling Deputy Mayor of Langliu City, the two leaders of the Langliu Municipal Government, appeared openly in front of the people of the whole country for the first time, and they were gentle and elegant? Discreet and rigorous? Yes, there is nothing wrong with these words to describe them, but what impressed the national audience the most was that they did not hesitate when they talked about the resettlement and arrangement of laid-off workers, and every sentence was so loud and clear.

Since then, the "Langliu City Government" has become the object of special attention of people throughout the country who are concerned about the issue of laid-off reemployment.
