Pearl River Delta Garment Workers Return Home Early &Nbsp; Garment Factories Are Hard To Catch Up.

Every year during the Spring Festival, mainland workers return home.

Labour shortage has spread in many parts of the Pearl River Delta region.

Nearly ten years of investment in a garment factory responsible person said, "during this period of time, manual workers have gone 10%, to go back to the new year ahead of schedule, a large number of anxious to catch up with exports, forming a very tense, the rest of the staff work overtime every day, but the staff is willing to work overtime, earn a little more back to the festival, but not competitive physical strength, overtime efficiency is not high, cost increases, business efficiency is not too great."

The official said that in order to ensure that employees return to work after the holidays, in addition to returning factory allowances, they also use holiday to decorate dormitories and update facilities to attract employees to return to factories, thus making the cost of enterprises invisible.

After the new year's day, the lowest temperature in the Pearl River Delta is only 5 degrees Celsius, which is close to the low temperature during the snow and ice storm in 2008.

Many migrant workers worry that they can't return home, so they decide to return home early for the lunar new year.

In many cities in the Pearl River Delta region, including the catering industry, construction industry, garment industry and other labor-intensive industries, this year's "labor shortage" situation is still serious.

Professor Wu Yi, a professor of Guangdong University of Business in the Pearl River Delta region, who has long studied the Pearl River Delta region's economy, said that the cold wave is only a random disturbance. It is an accidental factor. There is no cold current. Labor shortage will also appear.

The rise of raw materials and the decline in the profit of enterprise orders result in the low economic returns and the lack of attractiveness. This is the fundamental reason why workers return home in advance.

The rise in labour prices has become a norm.

In 2010, the remuneration and welfare of the textile industry increased by more than 10%, and the wage increase in the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta reached 20%.
