A huge movement of "machine substitution" in manufacturing industry is being carried out all over the country, from the Pearl River Delta to the Yangtze River Delta, from corporate behavior to government promotion. When Midea, Foxconn, Hsu Fu-kee and other industry leaders have announced the timetable for "robot workers", when Shunde proudly announced that robots will occupy "unmanned factories" in the next three to five years, and when Zhejiang Province ambitiously promotes 5000 "machine substitution" projects every year ... people can't help but worry about how the fate of workers will be rewritten after robots enter the factory.
What industry workers will be replaced by robots, and who will be stupid? [6] voting? But you're lucky. You're lucky. What about scrapping the Municipal Councils? What happened? I'm sorry, Zheng. What's wrong? How about the song tanning? Do you agree to stop it? さ Men are lucky; What's the matter with you? What's the change in the tomb where the lotus leaves and onions are cut? Meisi
However, it may be too early to worry that robots will bring "unemployment tide" to workers. On the one hand, the density of robots in most manufacturing industries is still very low, and there is still a considerable distance from large-scale "grabbing rice bowls". According to one data, South Korea, Japan and Germany, the top three robot application markets in the world, have 396, 332 and 273 robots per 10,000 employees respectively. According to China's relevant planning, the robot density will reach 100 by 2020. On the other hand, at present, most of the robots replace simple labor, which is the most scarce part in the labor market. Some experts believe that this just solves the problem of insufficient labor supply in some areas. From this perspective, there will be a buffer period for robots to replace workers on a large scale, which is a precious transition period for industrial workers in China. In order to keep their jobs in the robot age, workers must "transform and upgrade" with the industry.
In the future factory, the combination of "human and robot" will be the most common way of labor presentation. Enterprises need people who can work with robots, that is, workers who can operate various industrial robots independently, and even senior technicians who can integrate and maintain robots. At present, there is a huge gap in such talents. Some robot manufacturers complain that senior engineers fly all the way to other places to help users solve problems, and sometimes just a switch is not enough.
Unless the talent gap is filled, the robot industry can't really spread out, which has become the common sense of the robot industry. The person in charge of a robot enterprise in Foshan once estimated that a local faucet factory uses 50 sets of robot polishing systems and needs 150 professionals to operate, repair and maintain robots. By extension, there are more than 500 enterprises producing faucets above designated size in China, and more than 75,000 robot professionals are needed in this field alone. It can be seen that if workers can successfully realize the "transformation", there is still a vast world to display their fists and feet.
How to "upgrade" traditional workers to adapt to the robot age? Experts believe that this requires the joint efforts of enterprises and institutions of higher learning to quickly cultivate, transport and reserve talents for the industry through resource integration. In the Pearl River Delta, some enterprises have seen the "gold mine" of robot skills training, built a bridge between schools and enterprises, and combined the advantages of both sides to provide theoretical training and practical platform for talents.
Workers should also follow the trend and strengthen their own learning. In the robot age, do you want to be the "master" or "assistant" of the robot? Among them, the difference in technical content will bring a world of difference in position and salary. Professionals who know how to manage, integrate and maintain robots will become the "hot potato" for enterprises to compete for high salaries, while workers who operate robots alone will become the bottom of the workshop. An entrepreneur put it well: "Workers will not be eliminated because of the arrival of new equipment, but because they don't adapt and learn."
