Title: Road to Enhance the Competitiveness of China's Labor-intensive Industries A Survey After the Implementation of "China's New Labor Contract Law"
Abstract: Based on enterprises survey, this paper studied the road to enhance enterprises competitiveness after the implementation of New Contract Law. During the survey, we found the following conclusions:①The new Labor Contract Law did not increase the cost of law-abiding enterprises; ②Wage increase is not the result of implementation of the Labor Contract Law; ③ Labor Contract Law helps to maintain an orderly employment; ④ Labor contract Law will not reduce labor demand. Based on the survey, we believe that the upgrade road of labor-intensive enterprises should be the following:Shift price advantage to brand and channel advantage; upgrading products through research and development; be people-oriented rather than rhetoric.During rapid economic growth, most companies will not pay attention to innovation, brand or talent; therefore, those enterprises went bust when economic turns down. However, a small number of entrepreneurs recognized the importance of enhancing their own competitiveness. In this way, they can not only ride out the storm in times of crisis, but also find some opportunities. The following two factors hider the upgrading of competitiveness of laborintensive industries First, the inadequacy of China's soft power; Second, shortage of skilled industrial workers. China's labor-intensive industries need upgrading more than development. It can be said that China's industry will be upgraded together with labor's quality, to put it straight, the former depends on the latter. In an expectable period, escalation of China's labor-intensive industry will be the upgrading of production process and product, during which, skilled workers are nonseparable. Thus the training of skilled workers is a required course for China's industrial upgrading.
