Chapter 288: The Wave of Unemployment
22, 5/8.
Infineon's Sing Tao subsidiary quickly held a staff meeting.
Lawrence, who is in charge of the branch, announced to all employees: "Colleagues, it is very regrettable that the head office has decided to relocate the factory to Sydney, Australia, and employees who are interested in working in Australia can apply to the human resources department." ”
"What?"
"This ......"
The middle and high-level employees are not too panicked, after all, their technology is mixed everywhere, and they have accumulated a lot of savings.
The people who really feel uneasy are the ordinary workers at the grassroots level.
Infineon nominally agreed to apply to travel to Australia, but the problem is that it is certainly difficult for ordinary workers to obtain visas, and the Australian immigration review department is notoriously harsh, and most of the skilled workers on the ordinary assembly line cannot pass.
Almost on the same day.
23 semiconductor companies, including Intel, Texas Instruments, STMicroelectronics, Samsung, and ADM, have chosen to withdraw from Sing Tao.
In addition, a large number of precision instrument companies, as well as Shell and Citroen, have announced the closure of the Sing Tao factory.
This made the economy of Star Island, which was already in a cold winter, even worse all of a sudden.
Almost at the same time, the world's major semiconductor companies announced "price fine-tuning" in some regions.
Even SMIC had to accept America's price increase instructions.
The price of Homo sapiens imported semiconductor components from outside has skyrocketed by 8~12 times in an instant.
Luoyang District of Star Island.
The personnel department of Homo sapiens company has set up the Sing Tao Personnel Department here, and there is a long queue here at this time, and many people are wearing masks and waiting anxiously.
Inside the building.
Zhang Kai, who had just been fired by Intel, and more than a dozen other colleagues lined up here, ready to apply for relief.
After more than twenty minutes, it was finally Zhang Kai's turn.
The employees of the Personnel Department who were transferred from Luzon glanced at Zhang Kai's ID card and application: "Intel's packaging and testing technician? 11 years of work experience? ”
"Yes, no problem, right?" Zhang Kai was a little nervous.
The staff of the Personnel Department took out the application form for social employees, the employee contract, and the employee information manual: "Take it and go to office No. 14 on the second floor, and think it clearly." ”
Zhang Kai, who was holding the documents, and four other old colleagues, went up to Office No. 14 on the second floor, which contained a large number of desks and chairs, somewhat similar to a classroom.
The assistant took them in.
"Sit casually."
After taking his seat, Zhang Kai asked, "What are you going to do next?" ”
The assistant pointed to the documents in their hands: "Go through these documents and decide if you want to sign a contract, and if you want to sign a contract, just tell me that you can leave on your own without signing a contract." ”
"OK, thank you." Zhang Kai opened the contract.
The so-called social employees are people who do not work in the subsidiaries and internal organizations of Homo sapiens, but live in the controlled areas of Homo sapiens.
This type of social worker is usually minors, the elderly, the disabled, the vagrant, the wealthy and freelancers.
Zhang Kai looked at the contract and looked through the information for employees.
Through the comparison between the two sides, it was soon discovered that the so-called social employees are actually the marginal groups of Homo sapiens, and the company does not need you to work, but will provide you with housing, clothing, food, and medical care.
Of course, Zhang Kai knows that this kind of good thing is definitely not so enjoyable.
Because the standard of relief has been indicated in the employee needs manual, it is basically to ensure that the person does not die, but don't think about it if you want to enjoy it.
However, being a social employee does not mean that you cannot be promoted.
As long as you get a job, it can improve your standard of living.
If you don't want to work, you have to look at your own savings, or see if your relatives have enough money to support, otherwise you can only accept this lowest level of "welfare".
Zhang Kai was not too disappointed in this, now that the economy of Sing Tao is like this, the value of Sing Tao Yuan has depreciated by 63%, and Europe and the United States have announced that they will not recognize Sing Tao Yuan.
After the withdrawal of a large amount of foreign capital, the wave of unemployment broke out in an instant.
Zhang Kai raised his head and asked, "Helper Hall, may I ask if I work in a non-Homo sapiens enterprise, will the contract of the social employee be extended?" ”
"Mr. Zhang, social employees only have two options: death and resignation, as long as you don't quit, then until the end of your life, you are all employees of the company." Hal explained with a smile.
"Exit?"
"To quit is to leave the company and no longer enjoy all the benefits of the company."
Hehe, wouldn't it be good for you to just say that you can't cancel your nationality, Zhang Kai secretly complained in his heart.
However, he was still skeptical: "Hal assistant, how to operate the work contract I signed with other companies?" ”
"Don't worry! You don't need to sign a work contract, because in this type of case, you usually use labor dispatch directly, and you participate in the work of other companies as an employee of Homo sapiens. ”
"Labor dispatch? What about wages and benefits? Zhang Kai looked confused.
"Of course, it's the company that pays for it." Hal spreads his hands.
As for foreign-owned companies and private companies, they need to pay taxes to Homo sapiens and pay labor cooperation fees.
Essentially, social employees working for private companies is a collaboration between Homo sapiens and private companies, with Homo sapiens providing labor and private companies getting labor.
Therefore, social employees are also hierarchical, and the wages and benefits of these employees are also uniformly distributed by Homo sapiens.
"Is this mandatory?"
"Nature is enforced."
Zhang Kai and a few old colleagues looked at each other, and they knew why Homo sapiens claimed that there were no unemployed inside.
At this pace, those who do not work in Homo sapiens subsidiaries and subordinate institutions are all social employees, both men and women, young and old.
In this case, there are no more unemployed.
Children are born with a "job", where does unemployment come from.
"Is that the same for our families?"
Hal nodded, "Same." ”
“OK。” Zhang Kai already understood.
There are only two options at all, either to become an employee of Homo sapiens or to leave mellowly on your own, and there is no third option.
Zhang Kai considered that his parents in their seventies, plus their wife and children, a family of seven, if they want to immigrate to Australia, it is very difficult, and it is better to rub benefits in Homo sapiens.
"I want to become a full-time employee, do I need to go through any process?"
"Don't worry about it, but if you are a little self-motivated, and the whole family is in the company, it is very easy to apply for a formal position." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Kai was a little surprised: "If you have a family, it's easier to apply for a job?" ”
"It's the family within the company, after all, some positions require confidentiality, and it is generally difficult for new social employees who do not have a family to obtain this kind of position, such as the position of the internal security department, the internal affairs department, and the internal service department, and they don't want new single dogs."
Zhang Kai was a little worried: "The company doesn't seem to have a semiconductor industry, right?" ”
Hal shook his head: "Everything will be there, don't ask, don't ask casually, you are still strong now, you don't need to worry about not having a job." ”
The vast majority of people present have chosen to become social employees, and those who do not choose are a minority after all.
Now the whole world is not having a good time, at least there is no need to worry about starving to death within Homo sapiens, as Hal said, anyone who is a little self-motivated can be like a fish in water within Homo sapiens.
