Abstract

Since 2004, Chengdu household registration reform has been characterized by a leap in the transfer and the transformation from a quaternary structure to a unitary one. First of all, acceptance is the institutional nature of the transfer at this stage. The essence of such institutional transfer is the greatly reduced cost constraint of rural labor transfer with the labor factor supply curve sharply shifting to the right. For example of the four systems for resolving the most urgent income problem for the rural labor force, namely, the salary payment guarantee system, the minimum salary system, the labor contract system and the collective salary negotiation system which have been the focus of relevant management departments and have substantially reduced the opportunity costs of rural labor transfer.
