The Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee and Zhejiang Provincial Government have jointly promulgated a document promoting collective wage negotiations.<\/p>\n
They aim to ensure that 70% of all enterprises and 100% of state-owned and collective enterprises adopt the system by the end of 2010.<\/p>\n
The document mandates that enterprises facilitate employees — and especially employee representatives — in participating in democratic corporate management and collective wage negotiations. A draft collective wage agreement should be submitted to the local labor security department after it has been approved by the employees' conference.<\/p>\n
The relevant departments should strengthen research on average wages, enterprise labor costs and the consumer price index to determine a minimum wage standard, corporate and industrial wage guidelines, labor market price guides and other systems for the promotion of collective wage negotiations.<\/p>\n
According to the document enterprises that already have trade unions should adopt the collective wage negotiation system across the board before the end of 2009; while those that have not should promote regional collective wage negotiations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
