Chapter 369: Outrageous Treatment of Workers!

"The construction industry is like this. It's highly mobile and the work site is not fixed. In addition, after the project is completed, it's not certain when there will be new projects."

"The operating logic of this industry dictates that the company itself is not suitable for recruiting construction workers."

"And construction workers don't necessarily want to be tied to one company."

"After all, there was no work during this period, and if you can't make money, you can't support your family. Naturally, they have to go to a new construction site."

"This is the same reason that many factories will voluntarily leave their jobs once there are no orders and employees have no chance to work overtime."

“Through outsourcing, finding a dedicated team of contractors is the best way to maximize efficiency.”

Teacher Wu carefully explained to Ye Chen why his construction company did not plan to recruit workers.

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows when he heard this, thought for a moment and said, "We don't seem to have such concerns! The college itself has countless projected projects."

"Not to mention that there will be many municipal projects in the entire new area. If we are willing to undertake them in the future, it will definitely not be difficult."

"So the company's main work area is basically the new area across the river."

“The scope of work is roughly fixed, and there is no shortage of projects. Construction workers don’t have to worry about running out of work, and naturally they don’t have to worry about being unable to support their families.”

Hearing this, Teacher Wu smiled helplessly: "Principal, it seems that you really want us to recruit construction workers ourselves?"

Ye Chen took a sip of water and nodded without thinking: "That's true."

"And I think it is also beneficial to recruit workers yourself. If the workers are directly under our control, the level of the workers will be higher and it will be easier to manage, which will be good for the efficiency and quality of the project."

Teacher Wu thought for a while and nodded: "The benefits you mentioned, principal, are indeed there. If they are in-house workers, management will definitely be more convenient. If they are trained again, the level will be much better than the mixed team in the hands of the contractor. "

"It can indeed bring benefits to the project itself."

"But the problem is, if we recruit workers directly, the cost will go up too much."

"We can get the workers from the contractor as soon as they are used up, and the project payment will be settled and it will be over. It's simple and smooth."

"But if we recruit workers ourselves, the most basic point is that we have to pay five insurances or even one fund for the workers."

"Based on the wages of construction workers, we have to spend at least 2,000 more to pay for the five insurances and one fund."

"Secondly, if a patient is injured or something, the company also needs to be responsible. This matter is not just as simple as spending more money, but may also bring other social impacts."

"When the project is subcontracted to the contractor, if something goes wrong, it's the contractor's fault. We just want to pay more to show our care."

"Secondly, if the recruitment is formal and the employment contract is signed, then we will also give workers leave on statutory holidays. If they do not take leave, they will be paid overtime."

"But if it is handed over to the contractor, we don't need to consider these at all. We can just set a construction period with enough money and it will be done. Whether they work overtime or not has nothing to do with us."

"Not to mention that during the holidays, the company has to give some gifts to employees, right? Secondly, do you give out year-end bonuses?"

"The wages of construction workers are not low. Even if it is just one month's salary and the final bonus, it is still a big expense."

"By the way. There is another most important issue, and that is salary payment."

"According to common practice, the company settles payments to the contractor on a batch-by-batch basis, and even allows the contractor to advance wages, thus reducing the financial pressure on the construction company."

"So construction workers basically only get paid once a year."

“But if we recruit construction workers directly, we will definitely have to pay them monthly wages, which is also a challenge for the company’s capital turnover.”

"In short, if construction companies recruit construction workers directly, the cost we pay for each worker will increase by at least 60%."

"The proportion of labor expenditure in general projects is around 30% to 35%. But if workers are directly recruited, this proportion will rise to at least 45%."

As a big boss in the construction industry, Teacher Wu knows the workings of the industry very well.

He even listed the data directly to Ye Chen.

Why do construction companies need to subcontract, why do they need to find foremen, and why do construction workers only get their wages once a year and only have to pay for living expenses?

There are various reasons.

When Ye Chen heard this, he frowned and said, "But our land price will be very low."

"The biggest cost for a real estate company is to buy land, and the price we buy land at is much lower than that of normal real estate companies."

"Not to mention that the new area is not even a suburb, and the land is cheaper."

"Isn't the money saved in this part far higher than the rising labor costs?"

Teacher Wu looked at his principal helplessly: "So principal, you just want to recruit workers directly, right? Can I know why?"

Teacher Wu has already seen it.

My principal hopes that construction companies can recruit their own workers instead of engaging in traditional outsourcing.

But he really didn't understand why the principal would do this?

Ye Chen was silent for a moment and sighed: "Maybe it just feels unfair. I hope something can be changed."

“Construction companies see them as a nuisance and just want to outsource them, call them in when they’re in use and kick them out when they’re not in use.”

"It's profit margin, turnover rate, and industry rules."

“But those buildings were built by them standing in the most dangerous places day and night. They paid with blood and sweat. But in the end, they can only leave with the least money in the whole process.”

“They are engaged in dangerous work, but they have no five social insurances and one housing fund, no protection in old age, and they slowly grow old with injuries after giving everything.”

“The whole industry regards them as consumables and numbers.”

“But in my eyes, they are living people like us.”

“They have wives and children, parents and relatives, they also have joys and sorrows, and they also have what they want, what they want to play, and what they want to do. to do it. "

"If their work benefits can be guaranteed. They can have someone to rely on when they are old, let them live an easy life, let them be like ordinary people, can take a holiday when they are tired from work, and can go out to travel with their wives and children. "

"And to do all this, for us, it is just a small part of the profit. "

"Or, these profits should belong to them, we just give them back. "

"This is not a very important part of the profit for us, but it can really change the lives of many people, why don't we do it? "

"..."

Teacher Wu on the opposite side was really silent this time.

He certainly understood the reasoning of the principal.

Even people in the real estate industry understand it.

But why no one does it?

It is because people are selfish.

Who is willing to give the profits they can get to others for free, just to make others live a better life?

This is anti-human.

Most bosses obviously don't have this mind.

Everyone just wants to make themselves live better and make themselves richer.

Who cares about other people's life and death.

But the principal of his own school said this problem so solemnly.

However, thinking that the principal is the leader of the business giant Xingchen Group, he is also the principal of an academy.

Teacher Wu understood a little bit.

However, Ye Chen had not finished speaking, and paused for a while and continued: "And this is only part of the reason."

"The most important thing is that the flow of funds is regular."

"Our products, whether it is a house, a diet pill or a gym, need people to consume us to make money."

"And most of the consumers are office workers. If they have a low income and their lives are precarious, they even have to worry about their children's tuition and their family's mortgage, where do they get the money to consume?"

"The problem is that if most people have no money to consume, then no matter how good our products are or how beautiful the houses are, who can we sell them to?"

"So, only if we are willing to share money with employees, employees can be willing to spend money, and we can make money..."

"If you keep squeezing, there will always be a day when you can't play anymore."

The first words are Ye Chen's true words.

The latter ones are also.

Ye Chen is not a saint, and he doesn't regard himself as a saint.

I also hope that most people can live a better life.

But at the same time, Ye Chen also needs money.

There are so many subjects in the system mall, waiting for his exchange.

The funds required are unimaginable.

Ye Chen can certainly harvest crazily in the early stage, saving costs and increasing profits from all aspects.

But the question is, what to do in the future?

Ordinary people have been harvested, who will make money?

So even if it is for the future development of Xingchen Academy.

Ye Chen also has the obligation to make more people's lives better.

Let more people have consumption power to support the expansion of Xingchen Academy.

Of course, it is useless if Xingchen Academy alone is willing to give money.

But Xingchen Academy can take the lead.

The huge influence of Xingchen Academy can let more companies see that it is not a bad thing to let employees make more money.

It may even make the company more profitable.

In this regard, Xingchen Academy has actually done a lot.

For example, in the fitness industry, the share and salary level of fitness coaches have greatly increased.

Although the group of people who fill in the numbers have been cleared out.

But those who can continue to stay in the industry have an income at least half higher than before, and they don’t have to sell courses anymore, so their wages are higher and their workload is less.

The salary level in the domestic animation industry has also risen by 30%.

More and more ordinary people have felt the changes in their lives.

Although it may not be all the credit of Xingchen Academy, Xingchen Academy is definitely the most influential factor.

…

After listening to the words of his principal, Mr. Wu in front had a very complicated expression.

Although he was surprised that his principal was willing to share money before.

But he also felt that the principal might be too young.

After a few years, he will be more mature and no longer so idealistic, and maybe he will become like most people.

But after listening to the principal’s last words.

Teacher Wu knew that he was wrong.

The operation of society depends on reasonable distribution.

Many people understand, but the problem is that they are unwilling to share.

As for possible problems? What does it have to do with me?

No one cares how society will develop.

But my principal cares a lot.

He is even willing to take the initiative to pay.

The principal has a big picture and can overlook the entire chessboard.

But we will not ignore the real and vivid fellow human beings just because we are in a high position.

In today's society, there are many people who talk about the situation, the whole country, and the whole country.

But they will not look at the suffering people around them.

Only the principal can see the operation of society clearly, but also have empathy.

Such people are really too rare.

Teacher Wu's admiration rose spontaneously...

The original idea of ​​disagreement was immediately dispelled.

Teacher Wu even laughed: "I was short-sighted before. It has always been like this, which may not be right."

"Besides, why can't we guarantee reasonable profits by increasing labor costs?"

"Others can't do it, but our Xingchen Academy may not be unable to do it."

Seeing Teacher Wu's reaction, Ye Chen also laughed.

Xingchen Construction Company will officially abandon the traditional outsourcing model of construction workers.

Recruit your own workers.

But not now.

It's already January, and there is only half a month left before the Chinese New Year.

There are only a few days left before Xingchen Academy goes on vacation.

Everyone has to go home for the Chinese New Year, and it is impossible to recruit people.

We have to wait until after the Chinese New Year.

But I can deal with the specific treatment of construction workers in advance.

For example, how to divide the salary of workers of different types of work.

There are also more complicated situations at construction sites. For example, when cement arrives, it must be poured all at once, otherwise the cement in the entire mixer truck will be wasted.

Then overtime is inevitable.

How should the overtime pay for overtime be calculated?

This needs to be calculated carefully.

At the same time, rules and regulations are also indispensable.

There is a saying that it is useless to give benefits blindly.

For example, if a company blindly increases the salary of employees, the employees may not really work harder.

On the contrary, it may even be because of the more money in hand, the fun is high, and the mind is not on the work, and the efficiency becomes lower.

Therefore, although Xingchen Construction Company gives construction workers excellent treatment.

But the management will also be extremely strict.

In short, if you take this money, you should be more attentive.

You are not attentive? Don't work hard? Then leave!

Excellent treatment and strict system can bring excellent employees needed by the company.

Ye Chen has no opinion on this.

Ye Chen is not a saint. Ye Chen is willing to give workers better treatment, but it does not mean that he will tolerate workers fooling himself.

The two are not contradictory.

...

As the temperature gets lower and lower.

Tianhai City had a rare heavy snowfall this year.

However, none of these affected the continued popularity of Xingchen slimming pills.

The daily supply is still in short supply.

As for the second-hand market, it has cooled down.

But it was not Xingchen College's fault.

It was the result of the appearance of scammers.

Many fake drugs appeared in the second-hand market.

Wealthy consumers began to question the goods in the hands of scalpers.

It is no longer so easy to sell.

This is basically the case at home and abroad.

But this has nothing to do with Xingchen slimming pills, which are still the number one slimming pill in the hearts of people around the world.

And after the snow stopped.

The first half of the sixth academic year of Xingchen College officially ended.

The originally lively and prosperous university town quickly became empty.

Although most working people did not have a holiday.

But they also began to discuss the New Year.

The attention to Xingchen New District has decreased a lot.

But at this moment.

The official website of Xingchen College forwarded an announcement from its subsidiary Xingchen Construction Company.

When the content of the announcement was clearly seen.

The eyes of countless netizens were instantly attracted to it.

The main thing is that the content of this announcement is too outrageous...

"Xingchen Construction Company Recruitment Announcement for Construction Workers..."

"Xingchen Construction Company plans to recruit a total of 1,000 construction workers."

"The number of workers in each trade is as follows..."

"Requirements: Technical secondary school education or above, male, healthy, aged between 25 and 40, with relevant work experience, strong and healthy are preferred."

Seeing this, people who don't know the construction industry don't actually feel strange.

After all, isn't it reasonable for a construction company to recruit workers?

What's so strange?

Only people in the industry would find it outrageous that Xingchen College actually recruited workers on its own.

But what surprised everyone the most.

It was the job benefits below the announcement.

Looking at the benefits description, countless netizens felt a little stunned.

Is this really the treatment that construction workers can get? (End of this chapter)
