In the era of inflation, people always feel that everything is rising. Why is it that wages alone have been difficult to change? From the second half of last year to the present, local minimum wages have been raised in various places. Recently, Shanghai has set a minimum annual salary increase of 30%. . In the case of shouting "labor shortage", the company has given a generous salary to retain talents. All sorts of good news seems to indicate that people's wages are expected to rise. But is the same for the paying status of printing practitioners? The reality is that it is difficult for printing companies to shift the increased costs when the pressures of inflation and wages come. Although the situation of "high-paying high-income people" will occur in the printing enterprise, it is actually difficult to implement.
The external environment makes it harder to raise the salary
For compensation, the industry will be different and the overall level will be different. The treatment of printing practitioners is also difficult to escape from the background of a small profit industry. The profit space is being thinned at a layer, vicious competition and all walks of life are suffering from the rising cost, and the external environment of inflation has made the meager profit even worse. In this case, the environment in which employees are highly paid for is difficult to exist. These have led to the overall tone of the printing practitioners not too high wages.
The field of vision continues to extend outwards. As the survival of paper media deteriorates and user demand continues to decline, the survival of traditional printing industry is even more difficult. Some large-scale printing companies are beginning to explore expanding their production lines up and down the value chain. Although there are many effective experiences that can be borrowed from other industries, it is indeed difficult for Chinese printing companies. According to a multi-party survey conducted by the China News and Publishing News, many industry insiders report that book printing companies are trying to transform to printing, but because of changes in the supply chain and the transfer of customer relationships, the success is rare.
Moreover, the printing industry has been “delimited” in the processing industry for many years and has not been included in the cultural industry, so the profit margin is narrow. Whether it is engaged in traditional book printing business or packaging printing business, printing companies are extremely humble in the entire industry chain and do not have pricing power. Therefore, it is difficult for printing companies to shift the increased costs outwards due to the double pressure of inflation and wage increases. These circumstances have made it harder for the wages of the printing industry practitioners to rise.
Skilled talent is the "darling" of the enterprise
As far as the printing industry is concerned, geographically, salaries vary according to local economic levels. Taking Shenzhen, Guangdong as an example, the printing industry is one of its pillar industries. In the previous salary survey report, we saw that compared with other industries, printing practitioners are obviously at a medium-to-high level, so Shenzhen printing companies When competing for talent, there is a great deal of competitiveness.
Not only the differences in the regions, but also the different types of jobs printed, the salary and treatment are also different. It is easy to hear from the printing colleges that when the printing machine captain and the machine are treated the most, the monthly salary can reach 10,000 yuan. In recent years, with the popularity of digital technology and the importance it has been paid, some insiders have said that the wages for pre-press processing are relatively high.
However, the reporter learned from interviews with pre-press workers in the printing industry that the prepress is actually a department that is prone to errors. Because printing companies will be more active in night shifts, the pre-press department will have a high probability of making mistakes and belong to the “risk department”. Therefore, although compared to the workers next to the machine, the pre-press staff has a superior office environment, but the income is not higher than the captain.
