Abstract

[Having a job enables people to survive and develop, and is also an important factor in their integration into society, helping them to be aware of their own social value and to share the benefits of socioeconomic development. Employment is in the interest of all people in society. Since China began the process of reform and opening up, and rapid urbanization, a huge number of rural residents have flocked into cities and made significant contributions to local urban socioeconomic development. Nonetheless, they find themselves in an embarrassing position in the labor market. Income inequalities between locals and immigrants have continued to increase, due to low levels of labor market integration, uneven job opportunities, and an archaic employment structure. It is difficult for rural migrant workers to share the benefits of urban development with native urban residents on an equal basis. As a result, building a fair, integrated urban- rural employment system is not only required for establishing a harmonious society and deepening economic system reform, but is also a top priority for the implementation of China’s 12th Five-Year Plan, for the improvement of systems for urban and rural integration, and for coordinated urban and rural development.]
