Abstract

The "difficulty in recruiting labor" syndrome refers to the situation in which hiring units, under the current labor-wage system, are unable to fulfill either quantitatively or qualitatively the annual labor recruiting plan transmitted to them by the state, thus giving rise to a phenomenon in which recruitment of labor has not met the standards of adequacy. This phenomenon reflects that the laborers, as individuals, are themselves not following the state's hiring plan, but are selecting jobs that satisfy them according to their own personal will and thereby realizing their own employment objectives. This is what is meant by the "selectivity in employment" problem.
