Instrument maintenance worker has become one of the most urgent occupations in China

With the proposal of "Made in China 2025", various localities have released supporting policies for the development of the instrumentation industry, which has prompted the instrumentation industry to show a trend of rapid development. And what follows is the ever-increasing demand for talents. Not only in Zhuhai, but from the list of jobs in shortage of talents released by various regions in recent years, instrument maintenance workers have become one of the most indispensable occupations across the country.

Instrument maintenance worker is an auxiliary grass-roots position with low wages. It is not a profession that the younger generation is willing to engage in. Today, the generation with hard technology is aging, but the emerging generation cannot take over. The talent gap has become a common problem in instrument and meter companies.

Fortunately, this issue has attracted the attention of enterprises and governments. Human resources and social security departments are taking a series of measures to provide support for training talents.

At the same time, in order to better employ talents, since the end of last year, the Ministry of Human Resources and Equipment Security has abolished the "Regulations on Recruitment of Technical Workers". In the future, electronic instrument assemblers, electrical instrument assemblers, precision instruments Types of work such as instrument repairers are no longer required to be certified. This also opened up a convenient way for finding employment.

On the other hand, with the advent of the information age of instrumentation, the technical requirements for instrumentation maintenance workers are getting higher and higher. Some talents studying information technology have also entered this position, but it is easy to get confused about their work. This has led to a great increase in the mobility and instability of personnel, and has also caused companies to frequently be in a stage of scarcity of personnel.

Some veteran technicians said that the most rare thing to do as an instrument repairer is to maintain an eagerness to learn. The knowledge of the instrument is very wide, not just satisfied with the maintenance, we must dare to learn new process knowledge. PLC, DCS, ESD, SIS, FCS, etc. are all areas that can be studied in the future. Instrumentation is a kind of work that you will learn for a lifetime. The technology is updated quickly, and you have to learn faster to truly become a talent in this position.

Talent is the primary productive force. In this important transition period of this industry, we must work together to solve the problem of talent shortage and talent gap in order to promote the development of the industry.

For example, the Zhuhai Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Department said this time that it will open up a "green" channel for skilled personnel services. For talents who are in short supply in accordance with relevant policies, their spouses and children can be transferred to or moved into the household at the same time, so as to solve the problem of house purchase, children's enrollment in nursery, school, etc. The corresponding instrument and meter companies are also gradually increasing the benefits and salaries of grassroots positions, and they have a sense of vocational training.
