According to the statistics, by2050, china will have 500 million people aged 60 and over, accounting for 35%of the population. .41 billion seniors, of whom about 150 million are aged60-70, A significant proportion of these elderly people want to re-engage in social life, so the re-employment of the elderly has become an increasingly popular topic, so in China, the situation of the elderly re-employment is what?

I have interviewed 40 elderly people, including rural and urban, of these 40 older people who want to continue working, accounting for90%in rural areas, and 50% of those who want to continue working in urban areas. .

In rural China, most of the elderly, because they did not have a job when they were young, to farm for a living, old age can not be guaranteed, the support of children is not guaranteed. Because the rural children, most of them to work, farming for a living, no higher income, the family burden is relatively heavy, so can not provide a better life for the elderly.

Disease, is also one of the driving forces that plague the rural elderlyre-employment, "Now we are old, afraid to go to the hospital, life has no income, only expenditure, go to a hospital will spend all our savings, the future life will not be able to carry out, if there can be a job, life is not so." "This is from Henan Province, Yuguanying village, Wang Yun's grandmother interview, she is 81 years old, three years ago, when she was 79 years old, still in a company as a doorman.

The elderly in rural China are the main group of elderly people re-employed, including sanitation workers, cleaners, security personnel, rural elderly, as well as urban elderly work the main destination, in addition to teachers and so on.

To be a useful person to society

‘Being a useful person in society, so that I can continue to shine and heat, is my biggest idea after retirement," Guo said. Beforehis retirement, Mr. Guo worked in the civil affairs department of the government, after his retirement in a private enterprise as a secretary, the exploration and development of local culture, has always been Mr. Guo's greatest pursuit, at the same time, is his re-employment after the main work. "It's a very easy job, i just need to deal with the relationship between the government and business, more time, I can write books, let the culture of Hancheng spread." " Mr. Guo is engaged in the work, professional, technical strong, need a higher life experience, as well as rich relationship, but also need rich literary talent. In China, more and more retired government workers, re-employed in enterprises, with their rich resources in government work, as well as strong ability to do business, more by enterprises. Usually, older people like Mr. Guo have good retirement benefits after retirement, in order to be able to continue to contribute to society.

"For the sake of my grandson, I will work until the last day of my life."

Grandpa Wang, 65, retired to work in a private enterprise, after his retirement, because the family only his old partner and grandson, the children have all died. In order to feed his grandson, he and his old partner went to sanitation, and the combined salary of two people a month was only 2,800 yuan, which is all their income, he wants his grandson to go to school, and the life of the whole family. Because when you were young, there was no steady job, has always been a working life. Old age has no retirement income and can only continue to work. Now the grandson in junior high school, need 800 yuan a month to spend, two years later his grandson will go to high school, then their lives will be more difficult. Grandpa Wang's desire to work without children and their grandchildren is their greatest difficulty and the main reason for their work. Grandpa Wang doesn't know when he can work, but for the sake of his family, for the sake of his grandson, he will stay there until the day he can't work.

In China, most young people will not choose sanitation work for their own career, the job is more difficult, the working environment is relatively poor, coupled with the income is not high. As a result, jobs are everywhere in China, with an average of one in three people working in sanitation in China over the age of 55. Most of the people working in sanitation are in poor financial condition and need to continue working to maintain their daily expenses and expenses.

The elderly re-employed. The elderly with good physical condition, higher education level and higher professional level are easier to re-employ after retirement. Some expert-level professional skills of the elderly, after retirement, more engaged in consulting and other work, pay is relatively high.

"Most retired people who do not have the expertise can only choose service industries such as home economics, catering and security for a wide range of age restrictions when choosing for re-employment. Because the occupation before retirement is different, the difficulty of re-employment is very different. "

The national network of retirees has tens of thousands of older people registered to seek employment, and staff say the age groupfor job seekers is mainly concentrated in the age of50 to 70 years old, with the largest proportion being 60 to 70 years old, accounting for 60 percent.

Geographically, Guangzhou, Shanghai and Beijing have the largest number of job seekers. The study found that about 30% of the elderly are back at work for economic reasons. Good health, having a skill, and having time are the basic conditions for the re-employment of the elderly.

At the same time, the elderly re-employment, butalsofacea lot of difficulties, for example, there is no corresponding law to protect the elderly, in the 2019 People's Congress, CCTV host Bai Yansong proposed to improve the re-employment system for the elderly, so that the elderly in the job market, get more protection.
