due to collective wage negotiations, wage management and other core elements of monopoly, there are still controversial, as everyone expected, "Wage Bill," fear of difficulty in this year.
"First Financial Daily" reporters yesterday from a leading expert involved in drafting the Department understands that the relevant departments recently organized again on "Wage Bill," the research, and held the forum. Coming out of the previous discussion with the "year published" information is different from the research and discussion of the situation, the legislative process is not optimistic.
two focus controversial
"Wage Bill," led by the State Council, Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the National Federation of the specific departments involved in the drafting. According to security officials who had said, "Wage Bill," from 2007 began to develop, through a number of times research, many experts involved in the drafting and revision, final draft format. Early last year, the People's Insurance Department said, "Wage Bill," Bill has been formed, is to listen to different opinions. But so far, still can not successfully introduced.
this year by the end of July, media reports said the People's Insurance Department said, "Wage Ordinance" issued during the year is expected, but the People's Insurance Department spokesman Yin Chengji then the rumor that has never said so.
the experts told reporters, "Wage Bill" reasons for the delay is difficult to introduce, in a number of important issues because of the relatively large differences.
According to our reporter had obtained the "Wage Bill," the draft, monopolizing enterprises, particularly restrictions on executive pay is one of its core content. Included in the draft because "monopolies need human Ziyuan up wages and Social Security, Ministry of Finance, the SAC Deng department approval" of the content, knowledge of experts told reporters, making the draft determination procedures, 一方面 encountered Le from Xiangguan ministries of pressure, on the other hand, it would have met with the internal management of enterprises suspected of interfering in the question.
another controversy is due to collective wage negotiations at the core of the wage-fixing methods. According to the draft agreement, if the employee proposes to negotiate on the wage scale, enterprise party must accept. However, this requirement is facing great difficulties in the implementation.
"If the business side does not match, how do? Administrative punishment? Impossible. It attributed to 'a result of the signing of collective labor disputes arising from contracts'? Do not have the maneuverability." A labor-management relations expert commented.
the present legal provisions of the collective wage negotiations are still relatively vague, no mandatory requirement for collective bargaining over wages at the local union under a strong advance, and often is a mere formality.
"Wage Bill" system of collective wage negotiations, will have more advance? The labor relations experts said it does not look promising.
delay dilemma?
In addition to these two disputes, there is analysis of economic scholars, "Wage Bill," The reason why giving birth, simply because the current government still worried about the economic direction of the next step. If the macro to the good, raise the wages of workers ripe; the other hand, raise the wages of workers likely to result in increased business costs, which affect employment.
"In the final analysis remains to efficiency or to equity. From my personal point of view, 30 years of reform and opening up has been giving priority to efficiency, it is time to take account of the fair was." Scholar says .
In response to this dilemma, there have been such as "tax cuts pay raise," "increase the profits of state-owned enterprises turned over" and other proposals, but there is no magic formula to resolve the impasse.
present, all of the "Wage Ordinance" high expectations, was seen as solving the problem of income distribution in China "Golden Key." In response, Beijing Normal University, Income Distribution and Poverty Research Centre, said Li Shi, China's income distribution caused by the imbalance mainly not because of wage income, so can not expect a "Wage Bill" will solve the problem. The biggest role is to manage a low and one high, namely, by raising the minimum wage standards, and improve social security to "provide low" by controlling the monopoly industries to high-income "limit high."
Foundation of China's economic reform Wang Xiaolu, deputy director of National Economic Research Institute told this reporter, to change the imbalance in the distribution of income status, focusing on high-income groups to pay attention to, unreasonably high income must be controlled, such as This is a piece of gray income.
Wang Xiaolu in July announced a "gray income and income distribution", the current income of China's gray scale of about 5.4 trillion yuan, a direct result of a serious imbalance in income distribution.
