Hebei Iron and Steel Group: It ranks among the top 500 in the world in the "cold winter" of the steel industry.

The transformation mode of scientific development

Iron and steel enterprises are caught in industry losses, but Hebei Iron and Steel Group is full of vitality.

In the past four years, Hebei Iron and Steel Group has been among the top 500 in the world. The cost reduction of the same caliber reached 28.2 billion yuan, maintaining a good momentum of steady operation and healthy development.

In the meantime, large-scale mergers and acquisitions can not be ignored. However, it is an indispensable factor to comprehensively improve the quality of the workforce and change the development mode of enterprises.

According to the data, at the end of 20 1 1, the group had 32,379 senior engineers or above, an increase of 10660 compared with 2009, with an increase of nearly 50%. In the first half of the year, the number of new patents reached 246, close to the number of new patents last year, including 72 new invention patents, up 177% year-on-year.

"Talent is the first resource of an enterprise." Wang, chairman and party secretary of Hebei Iron and Steel Group, said that only by building a team of high-quality talents on the basis of talent growth can generate show its creative potential and innovative vitality today.

Innovate a mechanism: everyone can become a talent.

When it comes to Zheng Jiuqiang, Hebei Iron and Steel Group is almost unknown.

One by one, the "No.1 Steelmaker in China" who came out of the technical school, one by one, an expert in technical transformation who constantly solved difficult problems, and one by one, a steelworker who won the "National Moral Model Nomination Award" and was elected as the representative of the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, became the spiritual driving force for people to become talents.

The legend of Zheng Jiuqiang is a portrayal of Hebei Iron and Steel Group's eclectic training of talents.

Since its establishment, Hebei Iron and Steel Group has stood at the strategic height of a modern iron and steel enterprise, which is "leading domestically and first-class internationally", breaking away from convention, and promoting the rapid growth of the talent team from three aspects: system innovation, system guarantee and measures incentive. "Everyone can become a talent" has become a reality here.

There are channels for growth. Here, we have broken the single growth channel of post promotion, established three talent team development channels of management, professional technology and post skills, comprehensively promoted the "golden orange blue" talent plan, and built a "pyramid" employee team structure dominated by high-end talents, providing suitable development space for employees at different levels. The main subsidiaries of iron and steel industry clearly outline the growth path of employees by setting up professional leaders, first-to-fourth-level experts, assistant technicians, technicians, senior technicians and operational skills experts.

Progress has stages. According to the principle of "learn from what you do and make up for what you lack", we have invested 334 million yuan here and trained nearly 300,000 employees. The self-developed employee "online learning system" covers 3 1 post (major), and the employee participation rate exceeds 80%, attracting employees to change passive learning into active learning. Activities such as "guidance by famous teachers" have been carried out, and the ingenious skills of skilled talents of various types of work have been passed down and promoted. The "Hebei Iron and Steel Cup" Vocational Skills Competition was held for two consecutive years, and a large number of gold medal workers, technical pacesetters and technical experts emerged, such as Tan Haijun, Liu Hong, Jia Zhenhai and Rong Jie.

Success has motivation. Nearly 10 million yuan is spent here every year to commend outstanding talents who have made outstanding contributions. The subsidiary has formulated and promulgated the incentive measures for employees' vocational skill competitions, and systematically standardized the material rewards, salary promotion standards and honorary titles of employees participating in skill competitions at all levels. The highest reward standard for high-skilled talents can reach 654.38+10,000 yuan; Some subsidiaries innovate incentive mechanisms to cultivate external talents, and specially set up outstanding contribution awards to commend external experts and foreign experts.

Innovate a mechanism and everyone can become a talent. "Knowledge is power, skill is wealth", which stimulates the vitality of innovation.

Breaking barriers: innovation is not unattainable.

In Tuozilin Electrical Maintenance Innovation Studio, a group of first-line technicians are immersed in experimental operation.

The owner of the studio, national technical experts and maintenance electrician Tuozilin give guidance from time to time.

Focusing on solving the technical problems encountered in the production site, they completed 26 innovative projects, solved 50 problems and generated benefits of 28 million yuan.

"The problem point is the improvement point, the improvement point is the innovation point, and the innovation point is the benefit growth point." This concept eliminates employees' awe of "innovation" and opens the door to wisdom.

"Innovation Studio" is an important method for Hebei Iron and Steel Group to promote the innovation of all employees.

"Innovation Studio" takes top technicians as the leader, teams and post operators as the main body, takes stabilizing process quality, improving product quality, reducing consumption, solving key technical problems on the spot and improving production environment as the main contents, and based on the production site, independently discovers problems, independently selects projects and solves problems, which promotes the improvement of comprehensive quality and innovation ability of all employees.

At present, the Group has 39 innovation studios for employees at provincial, municipal and company levels, and Zheng Jiuqiang Steelmaking Innovation Studio has been recognized by Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the Ministry of Finance as the first batch of "national skill master studios" in China. Solve thousands of difficult problems in fields, complete hundreds of scientific research, apply for more than 200 patents, and create hundreds of millions of benefits.

Focusing on "reducing costs and increasing efficiency before iron rolling and improving the quality of steel rolling", the Group and its subsidiaries set up key research teams to focus on solving the bottleneck problems restricting cost-effectiveness by tapping the potential through benchmarking. Ironmaking cost is a big cost. According to the principle of technical feasibility, resource saving and economic best, the expert group before iron works systematically optimizes the burden structure and realizes the replacement of high-priced concentrate with economic materials. It has created many important scientific and technological achievements, such as "development of new coking technology with active additives", filled the gap in the field of coking coal blending in China, and obtained national invention patents.

Strengthen cooperation with universities and scientific research units. Hebei Iron and Steel Group invested 7.2 billion yuan in technology development, and carried out 52 key Industry-University-Research cooperation projects with well-known research institutions and universities such as Tsinghua University, University of Science and Technology Beijing and Sinosteel Research Group. At present, the 4 1 project has been implemented, and a large number of outstanding scientific and technological talents have been trained and upgraded; Overcome more than 200 core technologies in the field of automobile steel, and have the ability to produce more than 98% automobile steel; It has become the leader of steel for nuclear power in China and the only enterprise in China that can independently produce quenched and tempered high-strength steel for large-thickness offshore platforms.

Committed to a goal: harmony and glory between enterprises and employees.

Pang Jianhui, Ph.D. in Materials Science, Shanghai Institute of Optics and Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, received olive branches from many units.

He finally chose Hebei Iron and Steel Group.

At the beginning of work, priority will be given to 136 square meter three-bedroom and two-bedroom new house, with a one-time subsidy of 654.38 million yuan. At the same time, the group also transferred his girlfriend who worked in other places to solve the suffering of lovesickness.

Two years later, he was hired as a qualified engineer. Today, he has become the director of the steel room for cryogenic vessels in the Science and Technology Department of Wugang.

Jiang, who gave up Australia's million-dollar annual salary two years ago, came to Hebei Iron and Steel Group. Today, he is the deputy general manager of Sijiaying Yanshan Iron Mine, a subordinate mining company. "Putting useful people in useful positions and putting the right people in the right positions has given me a stage here."

In 2008, under the impact of the financial crisis, many enterprises laid off employees and reduced their salaries. Here, not only did they not lay off employees and reduce their salaries, but their income rose instead of falling.

Employees are the unrepeatable competitiveness of enterprises, the eternal wealth of enterprises, and the strongest reliance for enterprises to overcome difficulties. In Wang's view, it is the knowledge of140,000 Hebei Iron Man to insist on people-oriented and vigorously promote the construction of harmonious enterprises.

Committed to a goal, the harmony between enterprises and employees.

Here, with the first-class environment as the goal, we will speed up the elimination of backwardness, dismantle illegal buildings, clean production, improve the environment, and enterprises will "look new" everywhere; The career, treatment, emotion and environment have attracted 330 talents with master's degree or above from famous universities such as Tsinghua.

In the face of 23 failures, Pang Jianhui led the R&D team and won the most advanced international varieties-nuclear island grade nuclear power steel 18MND5 and 16MND5, realizing the "Made in China" of high-end nuclear power steel; The development of high value-added new varieties 10 has brought over 100 million benefits and promoted the localization of national key engineering steels.

Yanshan Iron Mine is the first large-scale mine designed, built and operated by Hebei Iron and Steel Group without relying on external forces.

Under the leadership of Jiang, after three months of trial production, the project has achieved amazing speed of three major scientific and technological achievements in one year. Yanshan Iron Mine has become a national demonstration base for comprehensive utilization of resources.

"Employees are unrepeatable core competitiveness", "I am an iron man from Hebei, and I am proud". In the situation of losses in the whole steel industry, Hebei Iron and Steel Group has been among the top 500 in the world for four consecutive years.
