全面推进劳动合同制度的实施。截至2009年底,全国规模以上企业劳动合同签订率达到96.5%;劳动合同内容趋于规范,劳动合同履行情况良好。积极推进集体协商和集体合同制度,增进劳动者与用人单位之间的相互理解和信任,推动劳动关系双方互利共赢。截至2009年底,全国当期有效集体合同达到70.3万份,覆盖职工9400多万人。
充分发挥协调劳动关系三方机制的作用。2009年,全国地级以上城市和26个省份的县(市)区建立了由政府、工会和企业方面代表组成的协调劳动关系三方机制,各级协调劳动关系三方机制组织共计1.4万多家。协调劳动关系三方机制围绕劳动关系的重大问题,积极沟通,加强合作,消除分歧,在促进劳动关系和谐稳定中发挥了重要作用。
Establishing a coordination mechanism for labor relations
China promotes the all-round implementation of the labor contract system. By the end of 2009, some 96.5% of China’s state-owned en-terprises and enterprises of other ownership with annual sales revenue over five million yuan had signed labor contracts with their employees. The contents of labor contracts had become more standardized, and most of the labor contracts were being properly observed. China ac-tively promotes group consultations and the group contract system, so as to enhance mutual understanding and trust between employers and employees, and seek mutual benefits for both parties to the labor con-tracts. By the end of 2009, the number of effective group contracts had reached 703,000, covering more than 94 million employees.
China brings into full play the function of the tripartite labor rela-tions coordination mechanism. In 2009 a total of 14,000 tripartite labor relations coordination organizations had been established in cities above the prefecture level and counties (including county-level cities and districts) of 26 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government), which comprised government, trade union and enterprise representatives. Centering on major issues of labor relations, the tripartite mechanism plays an important role in promoting harmonious and stable labor relations through active com-munication, enhanced cooperation and elimination of differences.
大力推动和谐劳动关系创建活动。2006年,中国开始开展“创建劳动关系和谐企业与工业园区”活动,通过制定、实施和谐劳动关系创建标准、推动建立劳动关系协调机制、表彰先进典型等措施,促进企业和工业园区内劳动关系的和谐稳定。截至2009年底,全国31个省(区、市)开展了和谐劳动关系创建活动。
积极发挥工会组织的重要作用。中国工会组织是职工利益的代表者和维护者,在创建和谐劳动关系的过程中,发挥着重要的、不可替代的作用。2009年,全国基层工会组织有184.5万个,覆盖企事业机关单位395.9万家,全国工会会员总数达2.263亿人。各级工会组织积极履行维权职责,帮助指导劳动者与用人单位依法订立劳动合同,代表职工与企业开展集体协商和签订集体合同,组织职工参与本单位民主决策、民主管理和民主监督,参与劳动人事争议调解仲裁,为职工提供法律服务,督促用人单位遵守国家法律法规。
China is vigorously promoting the building of harmonious labor relations. In 2006 the government began the campaign to establish harmonious labor relations in enterprises and industrial parks. By for-mulating and implementing standards of harmonious labor relations, promoting the establishment of a coordination mechanism for labor relations and commending successful examples, China promoted har-monious and stable labor relations in enterprises and industrial parks. By the end of 2009, a total of 31 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the central government had engaged in building harmonious labor relations.
China gives full play to the important role of trade unions. China’s trade unions, which represent and safeguard workers’ interests, play an important and irreplaceable role in promoting harmonious labor rela-tions. In 2009 there were 1.845 million trade unions at the grassroots level, covering 3.959 million enterprises and public institutions, and the number of trade union members nationwide had reached 226.3 mil-lion. Trade unions at various levels work actively to safeguard the rights of the workers, provide guidance and help for workers in signing labor contracts with employers according to law, represent workers in group consultations and signing group contracts with employers, or-ganize workers’ participation in democratic decision making, man-agement and supervision, take part in labor dispute mediation and arbitration, provide legal services to workers and urge employers to abide by state laws and regulations.
