After New Year’s Day, the domestic epidemic situation has once again affected people’s hearts. Recently, many places have issued notices. In order to reduce the flow of people and reduce the risk of infection on the way back home, It is recommended that migrant workers not return to their hometowns unless necessary and celebrate the New Year at the place where they work.
The peak period of returning home will be ushered in around the 15th. Factory capacity will be limited
This initiative may cause some trouble to many migrant workers. The government’s initiative is to reduce the flow of people and reduce contact. For most migrant workers, there are only a few days of Spring Festival holidays throughout the year where they can reunite with their families. From the perspective of human relations and family ties, they must go back. On the other hand, everyone has been vigilant enough to do a good job. They have taken personal precautions, and at the same time, they are also worried about changes in case more stringent control measures are issued. Therefore, these non-local workers who want to return to their hometowns for the New Year have to advance their return schedule, which may be earlier than the factory holiday.
Once more people return to their hometowns early, it will also be a test for the production of the textile market. The textile market has been very busy recently, and even some dyeing factories have lost their jobs due to workers In case of shortage, salesmen and merchandisers will come in and undo the orders themselves. Judging from the visits, many factory leaders said that around the 15th, there may be a peak period for workers to return home.
A factory boss revealed: “We originally planned to have a holiday at the end of January, but there will be 1/ 3 foreign workers will not be able to come over directly, and half of the workers will go back on the 15th. The remaining only local employees, about 10 people, can only work harder, drive out the goods, or recruit some temporary workers, on the 22nd We have to send out the last goods.”
The person in charge of another company with more than 200 looms also revealed: “Now the workers from other places who stay and those who go back are evenly divided. Those whose parents, children, and wives are here usually have already said hello to their supervisors and will be going back around the 15th. There are also some whose family members are here, and many of them will not go back this year. These employees even hope that we will take our vacation later, because This year there are rotating holidays and holidays, so the income is definitely not as good as in previous years, so I hope we will take the holidays later so that they can earn more.”
In addition, factory owners in some areas of Zhejiang have been Foreign trade orders are full and an early holiday may cause great losses. Therefore, many factories have adopted incentive measures to encourage employees to stay for the New Year. This is also a wise move. After all, once workers return, it will be more troublesome to return next year. Through some incentive measures to mobilize workers to stay in the construction sites for the New Year as much as possible, the problem of recruitment difficulties next year will also be alleviated.
Early holidays may allow weaving manufacturers to relieve inventory pressure and reduce expenditures
For manufacturers with abundant orders, workers returning home early may cause production disruptions and affect delivery times. However, for some weaving manufacturers with high inventories and lack of orders, it may not be necessary for workers to take leave early. Bad thing.
The manager of a factory with 60 machines said: “The factory officially went on holiday in January. On the one hand, because of the epidemic, many non-local employees wanted to return early. On the other hand, our inventory is too high. It is now close to 1.6 million meters, and the raw materials have also increased a lot, but the price of fabrics has not increased much. Calculate that production with the current high raw material prices is a loss. . Originally, we wanted to take an early holiday this year to ease the pressure on inventory and funds. So we took an early holiday on the grounds of preventing the epidemic from being uncontrollable. Now only 1-2 local employees are left behind in case a customer wants to arrange a holiday. Now, we can deliver goods at any time.”
Currently, the high inventory in the weaving market has not been significantly alleviated. Compared with the busy dyeing factories, the situation in the weaving factories is relatively deserted. , many weaving factories are still in the stage of accumulated inventory. An early holiday may allow these weaving manufacturers to breathe a sigh of relief. It can not only alleviate the excessive inventory, but also save a lot of labor costs. Generally, factories do not need to pay wages during the production shutdown and holidays. Therefore, textile mills are not very reluctant to take early holidays.
Finally, the editor would like to remind all migrant workers outside, whether you choose to stay and work this year Whether you are celebrating the Chinese New Year in another country or returning home early, you must remember to take personal protection, wear a mask when going out, avoid going to crowded places, reduce unnecessary gatherings, and make decisions that suit you based on your actual situation.It was decided that the factory also needs to look at the personnel situation, make arrangements in advance, and accept orders as appropriate to avoid delays in delivering goods and delays in delivery.
