Hence, they need to coordinate with businesses to create a safe, friendly and effective working environment; build up harmonious, stable and advanced labor relations; launch emulation movements among laborers, enhancing productivity and quality of products, winning faith of businesses’ partners in order to ensure stable jobs. They also need to mobilize laborers to constantly improve their skills, creating an important position in the process of production-business so that their jobs are assured…
