The latest news of social security reform in public institutions
If institutions still rely on finance after the social security integration, it will not make much sense.
It is of great significance if public institutions get income in the same way as enterprises and no longer rely on finance, because it means that public institutions will go to the market and leave the country. It is meaningless if only the "guarantee method" conforms to the enterprise and the nature of the organization remains unchanged.
Reporter: the State Council recently issued the Regulations on Personnel Management of Public Institutions. Since July, institutions and their staff have been on par with enterprises in terms of wages and social security, and have participated in social insurance according to law. Because it involves 1 1 1 10,000 institutions and 3153,000 staff, it has attracted much attention. what do you think?
Zhu Haijie (Professor, Zhejiang Gongshang University): The key here is how to understand the phrase "keep up with enterprises", whether it is the way to obtain income or the social security itself. It is of great significance if public institutions get income in the same way as enterprises and no longer rely on finance, because it means that public institutions will go to the market and leave the country. If only the "guarantee method" conforms to the enterprise and the nature of the institution remains unchanged, it is meaningless, because this is only an expansion of the scope of "social security", and "social security", as we know, is not desirable. The social security implemented at the enterprise level now can be said to be a failure.
The latest news of social security reform in public institutions shows that "social security" means raising yourself with other people's money and raising others with your own money. First of all, it is ethically infeasible; Secondly, it is not technically feasible. How does Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security know what your income is, what your assets are, and what level of security you need after retirement? These information problems cannot be solved, so it is impossible to determine a reasonable protection level.
The latest news of social security reform in public institutions shows that the problem of security should be handed over to individuals, which is everyone's own business, not the government's. Of course, enterprises can participate in solving the problem of employee protection, because in terms of information, the problems they encounter will be much smaller than those in Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, and enterprises can provide appropriate protection for employees according to their own conditions to attract talents, such as Google. Everyone knows that the protection level is very high.
The current pension system reflects the relationship between income and power.
The current pension system is a "hierarchical system", and how much pension a person can get is linked to his status. In the case of civil servants and employees of public institutions, the pension is very high; If it is an enterprise employee, it should be much lower; If it is a farmer, it is even less. It reflects the relationship between income and power (rent), not the relationship with contribution.
Reporter: In the past, public institutions and civil servants did not have to pay social security, but the pension after retirement was borne by taxpayers, which was much higher than that of enterprise employees, which was unfair. Although the civil service pension has not been consolidated this time, it is slightly fairer than before?
Zhu Haijiu: The current pension system is a "hierarchical system". How much pension a person can get is linked to his status. In the case of civil servants and employees of public institutions, the pension is very high; If it is an enterprise employee, it should be much lower; If it is a farmer, it is even less. This system of distinguishing different pension levels according to status is obviously unfair, because it reflects the relationship between income and power (rent), not the relationship with contribution.
To some extent, the combination of pensions of public institutions and enterprises is equivalent to canceling the privileges of pensions and reducing the pensions enjoyed by retired employees of public institutions, which is of positive significance. The result of narrowing the pension gap has become fair; It is also fair to use the same pension system. However, the security system used together with * * * is still unreasonable "social security", so it is still not satisfactory.
The latest news of the reform of public institutions: public institutions should be market-oriented and financially weaned.
The latest news of the reform of public institutions shows that it is a joke that public institutions keep financial money on the one hand and distribute it in the form of enterprises on the other. Since the guarantee is in line with the enterprise, the source of income should also be "enterprise-oriented", that is, the institution should be market-oriented and divorced from finance.
Reporter: At present, most institutions are in a balanced configuration, such as hospitals and schools. Part of the salary of public institutions depends on scientific research, hospital income generation and school enrollment expansion. Some people think that this will lead to unreasonable charges of public institutions and affect the quality of public services. What do you think of this view?
Zhu Hai: Some people worry that institutions don't have enough sources of income to pay pensions, and governments at all levels are unwilling to pay for them, so institutions will raise fees or collect fees indiscriminately. This situation is possible if the state-owned nature of public institutions and the social security nature of old-age care remain unchanged. As mentioned above, if the state-owned nature of public institutions is not fundamentally changed, the reform at the pension level will be distorted and the predetermined goal will not be achieved.
Pension can be regarded as a part of income, and "reform for the old" should actually be viewed in the context of "reforming income sources" For those high-income units, the pension after the merger is just like a chicken rib, which is simply dismissive, because their assets such as real estate can be adequately guaranteed to protect the elderly. Therefore, if the income system is not reformed, the pension reform will be meaningless. In other words, the problem lies not in providing for the aged, but in the legitimacy and legality of income sources.
The latest news of the reform of public institutions shows that due to monopoly power, employees in some public institutions have high incomes. For example, pensions will decline after the merger, but they can use monopoly power to raise fees and make up for them in the current period. Therefore, first of all, we should change the state-owned nature of public institutions, let them go to the market and become real enterprises. On this basis, it is meaningful to discuss the issue of old-age care.
On the one hand, institutions keep financial money, on the other hand, they pay it according to the enterprise method, which is simply a joke. Since the guarantee is in line with the enterprise, the source of income should also be "enterprise-oriented", that is, the institution should be market-oriented and divorced from finance. Of course, the latest news of the reform of public institutions shows that the charges are also determined by the market price of their services, so there is no problem of arbitrary charges.
The latest news of civil service reform shows that it is a good thing that the number of civil servants applying for the exam has decreased and the attractiveness of government departments has declined. A clever woman can't cook without rice, and the guarantee ultimately depends on creating wealth. Only more people enter the real sector that creates wealth. When social wealth increases, there will be real protection.
Reporter: At the same time, the "national examination" is also cooling down. 20 14 The number of civil servants applying for the exam decreased by 360,000 compared with last year. Moreover, under the pressure of anti-corruption, civil servants do not have so many benefits. Some civil servants said that "as long as civil servants' pensions are merged, they will resign immediately. "What do you think?
Zhu Haijiu: If the old-age pension is integrated, the income of civil servants should be improved and transparent. For example, the pilot appointment system of civil servants in Yiwu has an annual salary of not less than 300,000 yuan. If the government can't provide attractive salary, no one will become a civil servant. It is good for civil servants to let the income be directly reflected in the annual salary instead of the hidden and vague pension in the future. Because this is equivalent to breaking the shackles, they don't have to be tied to government departments all the time, and they can get their due rewards (pensions) until they retire. They should realize that "mobility" itself is an important right or welfare that they should have, but it is only deprived under the current retirement system. For the government, the annual salary system supplemented by the assessment system can also motivate civil servants to work hard.

Hope to adopt, good luck.
