On the afternoon of the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, a plane carrying 100 migrant workers from Wenshan, Honghe and other places in Yunnan arrived at Shanghai Pudong International Airport successfully. These workers wearing "Little Red Riding Hood" have picked up their luggage, received the New Year gift packages from Shanghai Human Resources and Social Security Department staff, took the pick-up bus, and will resume work quickly after arriving at the company. They are also the first batch of migrant workers who returned to work in Shanghai during the Spring Festival holiday of the Year of the Snake.

"We used to take trains to work in Shanghai. It took more than 30 hours to take the train from Kunming to Shanghai, and the tickets were hard to buy." Yang Qingrui from Huize County, Qujing City, Yunnan Province took the "start-up plane" for the first time this year. In the morning, he and his colleagues took the bus to Wenshan Airport organized by the local government, and arrived at Pudong Airport at 1:30 in the afternoon.

Xu Jianhua, director of the Shanghai Small and Medium Enterprises Technical Talent Introduction Service Center, which has long participated in Shanghai-Yunnan labor cooperation, said that in the past two years, more and more migrant workers have been engaged in "future track" industries such as integrated circuits, new energy, and high-end intelligent equipment, becoming the new force for high-quality economic development.

Yang Jiaying, Secretary of the Party Group and Director of the Shanghai Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, introduced that based on the on-site recruitment and group recruitment in major labor export provinces in previous years, Shanghai has taken the initiative to step forward this year to further enrich the toolbox of labor cooperation measures.

"We will comprehensively survey the employment needs of key enterprises, sort out the list of key enterprises with employment gaps, establish a "key enterprise employment service file", actively match and match the employment needs of enterprises with the labor export needs of labor in major labor export provinces, and "thread the needle and lead the thread" to ensure the employment of enterprises." Yang Jiaying said.

During the Spring Festival holiday, Shanghai will also organize a series of "special planes", "special trains" and "special vehicles" services to help Anhui, Sichuan, Hunan, Henan, Gansu and other major labor export provinces return to work one after another. It also plans to hold more than 110 job fairs in a targeted manner after the Spring Festival and provide more than 100,000 job fairs. (Reporter Zhou Rui)
