The proportion of senior technicians in western developed countries exceeds 35%. Of the 70 million skilled workers in China, only 5% are senior technicians. According to the tenth five-year plan, the number of senior technicians in China will reach 15%, with a gap of 7 million. The shortage of "silver collar" talents has seriously restricted the development of China's manufacturing industry.
It is difficult to hire senior technicians with high salaries, which is a phenomenon in some coastal cities in China. Take Shenzhen as an example. In recent years, the average monthly salary of senior locksmith has repeatedly exceeded the average level of graduate students in the "labor market guidance price" announced by Shenzhen to the society. At the same time, Shenzhen clearly put forward the slogan of "making senior technicians pay more than doctors".
By the end of 20 10, the Eleventh Five-Year Plan will support 300 senior technical schools, technician colleges and higher vocational colleges to build high-skilled personnel training bases, and strive to greatly increase the scale of high-skilled personnel training.
During the Eleventh Five-Year Plan period, China will implement the special plan of "New Technician Training and Driving Plan".
