Since 2021，China’s employment situation has remained generally stable in the face of the continued COVID-19，drastic changes in the external macro environment，and unstable domestic economic recovery. However，under multiple pressures，market demand contracted，it was difficult for enterprises to stabilize their posts，the momentum of employment growth weakened，the level of unemployment rose periodically，and the risks of industrial，regional and group structures increased significantly. Employment difficulties in traditional service industries have deepened，while some emerging service industries such as Internet platforms，finance，online education and training are under pressure. The labor market in the eastern region and head cities fluctuates violently，and the employment pressure and unemployment risk overflow；the employment difficulties of college graduates，migrant workers，poor groups and some white-collar groups have increased. In the next step，there is still a certain foundation and favorable conditions for maintaining the overall stability of China’s employment situation，but it is still facing a complex situation with the superposition of cyclical，structural，frictional and policy factors. It is necessary to further strengthen the employment priority policy，balance the macroeconomic objectives and policies，and increase the strength of structural policy support for key industries，key regions and key groups on the basis of stabilizing the macroeconomic fundamentals，eliminate the “barrier lake” of graduates’ employment，expand the “reservoir” of rural labor force，and activate the “turnover pool” of flexible employment，so as to prevent the occurrence of systematic and large-scale unemployment risks.
