Qualitative Study on the Collaborative Pathways of Employment Promotion Policies for Migrant Workers

Migrant workers are a key group targeted by national employment policies, yet insufficient policy coordination leaves them vulnerable to new employment risks, with poor job stability and low job quality. To promote high-quality and full employment for migrant workers, the employment promotion policies for migrant workers in Guangxi have formed a coordinated evolutionary path that includes "ensuring equal employment rights for migrant workers—guiding migrant workers to return to their hometowns for employment and entrepreneurship—securing the rights of migrant workers to develop in cities—promoting the integration of migrant workers into cities and the dual development of urban and rural employment and entrepreneurship." The policy coordination path indicates that fiscal and tax support is a necessary condition for the implementation of other policy measures; increasing employment opportunities, enhancing employment capabilities, and improving employment security are conducive to promoting the return of migrant workers to their hometowns for employment and entrepreneurship, as well as their employment in cities. The implementation of employment policy measures requires the coordinated organization, implementation, and management by government departments. However, there are still issues such as insufficient coordination between policy measures hindering upward mobility in employment for migrant workers; and the level of coordination between implementation and safeguard measures still needs to be improved. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the coordination between fiscal and tax support and other policy measures to increase the employment opportunities available to migrant workers; to improve employment security and enhance employment capabilities to facilitate upward mobility in employment for migrant workers; and to enhance the coordination between policy implementation and safeguard measures to promote the implementation of employment promotion policies for migrant workers, effectively promoting and ensuring high-quality and full employment for migrant workers.
