The Development Research Center (DRC) of the State Council publicized here on Saturday China's first human resources development report which combs the country's current human resources situation and gives suggestions accordingly.

The report has examined issues including but not limited to Chinese enterprises' human resources system construction, working post and payment management, personnel employment, training, social security and employee performance management. Taking shape after year-long joint investigation efforts by over 100 Chinese human resources experts, the Human Resources Management for Chinese Enterprises During Transitional Period is widely viewed as a collection of China's most authoritative survey results regarding various issues in the human resources field in China. "The report aims at providing facts supporting the government in designing human resources development and management policies, helping enterprises lift their expertise and providing basic figures for experts' study," said deputy DRC director Chen Qingtai. The report is done on the basis of distributing question sheets to more than 2100 randomly sampled enterprises of different ownership backdrops, said Dr. Lin Zeyan, responsible for the survey work. According to the report, despite some obvious progress Chinese enterprises have made in human resources work, they still lag far behind in fostering would-be enterprises leaders, designing employee career development plans and practices to handle complaints. Most Chinese enterprise employees are satisfied with their current payment, but there remains a big gap to fill in for social security coverage among them. More than 10 percent of the surveyed enterprises didn't pay basic endowment insurance and housing accumulation funds for employees, the report said. It also indicates that Chinese enterprise executives earn on average 3 to 15 times more incomes that that of common employees.
