Workers in private enterprises are very mobile, and very few people go out after work to buy something, and they are gone, and they don't even want their luggage and wages.

More often than not, workers go home for the Spring Festival and are never seen again.

Of the more than 5,000 workers in several factories under Xiangyang Electronics, more than 4,000 are women. The scale of such factories is not the largest in Guangdong Province, where several large foundries employ 10,000 or 20,000 workers.

Girls may stay in their hometowns after going home for the Chinese New Year and getting married, or they may follow their husbands to other cities or other factories to work.

The situation of Xiangyang Electronics is quite good, and the shortage of more than 5,000 workers will not be more than 500 when they come back.

However, Wang Weidong still felt dissatisfied, because after working for a month or two, the workers had memories in their hands, and they were much more efficient than inexperienced workers, with little chance of errors and less material waste.

So how to retain workers has become a big problem.

In recent years, the wages of private enterprises in Guangdong Province have not changed much, and the wages of some small factories have a tendency to decrease.

Because in recent years, many state-owned enterprises have closed down, and township enterprises have also closed down, so the tide of going out to work has been higher and higher, and most of them are flocking to places where there are many private enterprises such as Guangdong Province and Zhejiang Province, and private enterprises have become the main force to solve the employment pressure.

Since there are a lot of people looking for jobs, the boss has the confidence not to increase the salary, or even reduce the salary.

If you don't do it, some people will do it!

However, Wang Weidong does not think so, he wants to be on par with foreign-funded enterprises in Guangdong Province.

Whenever a foreign-funded enterprise recruits, the people who go to recruit are crowded!

Therefore, foreign-funded enterprises can choose the best of the best, some young people gritted their teeth and scolded the small book when they drank the night before, but the next day when they heard that the small book automobile factory was recruiting, they did not hesitate to run away.

Wang Weidong convened a meeting of four people in Fushan, and Shi Yueshuang, secretary of the board of directors, attended the meeting.

"In the past few days, I have looked at the financial statistics, and the proportion of the wages of the workers in the electron tube factories in our factories to the total cost is only 10%, and the wages of the factories that produce decoder boards and movements account for less than 15% of the total cost. Only factories that produce inverters have the highest percentage of wages as a percentage of total costs, at 19%. Wang Weidong said.

The reason why the wages of factory workers who produce inverters as a proportion of total costs is high is because Sunningdale now has a small semiconductor factory far away in Germany.

The German workers at that factory paid Sunny Electronics 8.5 marks for every hour they worked. A seven-hour working day is almost 60 marks.

At the current exchange rate of 8.3 between the mark and the yuan, a German worker earns more than a worker in the Vorshan factory in a month's wage!

"I want to increase the wages of the three factories under Fushan by 20 percent, and increase the overtime pay by the same proportion. In this way, the enthusiasm and conscientiousness of the workers can be improved. If the wages of Xiangyang Electronics and other factories in Fushan are about the same, the workers will leave if they want to, and there will be no hesitation. If he wants to leave again after improving, then he has to think about it. Wang Weidong said.

Ou Xiaojun is a director and has a good understanding of the overall situation of Sunningdale Electronics.

Hearing Wang Weidong say this, Ou Xiaojun said: "Now the total salary of our Xiangyang Electronics every month is 15.6 million yuan, and if it is increased by another 20%, it will increase by 300,000 yuan every month, which is not a small number." ”

"Brother Xiaojun, I don't think the increase is much. We pay more than 100 taxes and fees to the national and local governments every year, with a total of 50 or 60 million. Needless to say, this is what our company should do. Every year, we at Sunningdale Electronics respond to the call and give out millions of donations, which is enough to pay more than 5,000 workers a salary. The annual apportionment of books and periodicals is tens of thousands, and the total number of years in the past few years has been 200,000, right? Wang Weidong said.

Qi Jianguo and Zhang Zhifeng were both senior wage earners in front of Wang Weidong and Ou Xiaojun, and neither of them expressed their opinions when they heard Wang Weidong and Ou Xiaojun's argument about raising wages.

But in their hearts, of course, they also want to raise wages. Because for them, a 20% increase would mean tens of thousands of dollars more per year.

"When wages increase, the efficiency of production will also increase. Workers will no longer think about the big deal, pat their butts and leave. Since we go out to Sunningdale, it will be difficult for them to earn such a high salary. You can make so much money carrying cement on a construction site, but are they willing to go? Wang Weidong said.

"Weidong, increasing the total salary of four or five million a year is indeed not much for us at Xiangyang Electronics, but if we do this, then we are a lot higher than those factories in the same industry, which is prominent." Ou Xiaojun said.

Although the bosses of the various electronics factories in Fushan have not sat together for negotiation, there is a tacit understanding in everyone's hearts about the wages of workers.

Ou Xiaojun is worried that it is not good for Xiangyang Electronics to break this tacit understanding.

One thing that comes to mind right away now is that when workers go to other factories to apply for jobs, they are likely to say: "Sunningdale Electronics opens so many for workers, why do you open so few factories?" ”

Which boss would love this to happen?

"If we raise the standard of workers' wages, we will naturally raise the standard of recruitment. Starting from the spring of next year, among the workers recruited during the probationary period, those who are slow to master the technology and have problems with their work attitude will be resolutely dismissed, and they will not be soft! All workers must work seriously, work with low efficiency, and resolutely fire if there is a mistake that causes product damage to a certain extent! Wang Weidong said.

Hearing Wang Weidong say this, Qi Jianguo and Zhang Zhifeng both glanced at him.

Both of them had worked in state-owned enterprises before, and during their tenure as leaders, they had never fired a worker, and you would never have fired a worker, even if the worker's performance was poor.

Although Wang Weidong raised his wages, the workers were even more nervous when they worked, and they did not dare to be a little sloppy and make a little mistake.

The increase in wages is compensated for the increased efficiency of the workers.

It's a bit like the little book movie "Ah, Wild Wheat Ridge", adding a sweet potato to the worker and then turning the clock on the wall back for an hour.

Of course, Wang Weidong's approach is definitely not as bloody as that of a small book capitalist, and it is more hidden, not naked exploitation.

"All the efforts come at a price, and as we raise wages, workers have to work harder!" Wang Weidong said.
