Chapter 1342 [Document notification issued to each holding subsidiary]

The time came to Friday, April 4th.

In a second-tier city in China, there is a physical mid-to-high-end manufacturing company of a certain scale. It was established about four years ago and is a holding subsidiary of Qunxing Group. Its annual revenue reaches about 23 billion yuan and it has about 1600 employees.

There were about twenty minutes left before the end of the get off work day. The department manager came to a production workshop in the company and asked the workers to stop the machines.

"The machines have all stopped. Come gather together. I have something good to announce." The department head greeted them with a document in his hand. The employees all gathered around with question marks on their faces. The department head pulled out a stack of documents from a folder and handed out an A4 paper form to each employee present.

As he was distributing the items, he said, "The parent company Qunxing issued a written notice to all its subsidiaries, including our company, which launched a free housing benefit for employees. From now on, everyone will no longer have to live in the company dormitory."

"Single employees can apply for a small apartment with an area of ​​less than 50 square meters, and married employees can apply for a large apartment with an area of ​​no more than 150 square meters. They are all fully furnished and ready for move-in. They have water, electricity, refrigerators, and air conditioners. They are community-level and the worst location is at the edge of the city's second ring road."

All the employees in the workshop were shocked and suddenly there was a commotion. Most employees, especially those who were single, lived in the company's dormitories, with six people living in one dormitory. With the new housing benefits, everyone can live in a well-decorated house in the community.

For a small apartment of 50 square meters with a kitchen, bathroom and balcony, it is no problem to have two bedrooms and one living room. Not to mention a large apartment, if it has three bedrooms and one living room, the space will be very large, and it will be no problem to have four bedrooms and two living rooms.

The department manager put his finger on his palm and raised his voice: "Stop making noise and let me finish what I want to say."

The excited employees in the workshop finally quieted down and looked at the supervisor, who said again: "According to the notification document from the company, employees who leave can continue to live here for free, which is linked to your length of service."

An employee asked: "What does that mean?"

The department manager replied: "It means that once you join the company, you can live in a house for free. If you leave the company, you can continue to live in the house for as many years as you worked during your employment. For example, if you leave the company after working for ten years, you can continue to live in the house for free for 10 years, and so on."

When this was said, the employees present were shocked again. Someone in the crowd said, "Doesn't that mean you can live here for 35 years if you work for 70 years? That's like getting a house with a 70-year property right for free..."

Everyone burst into laughter, and someone said, "I'm already over 30, it would be great if I could come in earlier."

At this time, someone asked: "By the way, supervisor, does the length of service start from now or from the time of joining the company?"

The supervisor answered succinctly: "From the time you join the company."

Hearing this, the employees present cheered again and began to talk about their length of service. However, this company has not been established for four years, and the longest length of service is only this long.

After a while, the supervisor made a silent gesture, and when everyone quieted down, he said again: "The house hasn't been started yet. I've asked the general manager, and it will take more than a year before we can move in, and it may take two years at most."

Then he changed the subject: "But during this period, the company will still provide housing benefits of the same level. We have already bought more than a thousand rental houses in the community. The rent will be reimbursed by the company. There is also a free standard for water and electricity fees. You will pay for the part exceeding the free standard. The free part is definitely enough. You still need to save water and electricity."

The employees present cheered again.

The department manager greeted them, "The houses are scattered around, not in the same neighborhood, but not too far from the company. Take a look at the forms in your hands, fill in your identity information as required, and then come over to draw lots. You'll get the position you draw. Go fill in the forms, and come and ask me if you don't understand anything."

Then more than 20 employees in this workshop began to fill in the form carefully. After about seven or eight minutes, everyone had filled in the form, and the department manager collected it again. Then he brought out two blind boxes and asked the employees present to draw lots from the blind boxes.

One blind box is for single employees to draw, and the other blind box is for married employees to draw.

In the future, when new buildings are built and moved in, the allocation will be by drawing lots, which will also avoid some disputes.

At this time, two young single employees came to the department manager and said, "Manager, we just discussed and want to swap positions. Is this okay?"

The department head immediately denied it: "No."

One of the young employees immediately said, "We both agree. Is this not okay?"

The department manager said, "Now that we've agreed, if one of you wants to move back after living here for a while, and the other doesn't agree, won't there be another dispute? If you two switch, the others will have to move back after living here for a while, and adjustments will have to be made. This is a waste of the company's human, material and financial resources. The company has clearly stipulated that the address is determined by drawing lots and cannot be changed. Unless the building collapses."

The two young employees smiled awkwardly and didn't mention the matter again.

After a while, all the employees present received their respective labels, and the department head took out a bag from his briefcase, and dumped dozens of keys on the table. He moved a stool to sit down, opened the document and said to everyone: "Look at the address on your label, and those who have the address I read come to get the key access card."

After saying that, he picked up one of the key access cards and read out the address attached to the card. An employee came over immediately. The department manager glanced at the label he drew and confirmed that it matched, then gave him the key access card and filled in the document and made a record. These will be entered into the company archives and directly into the big database.

Employees just need to fill out the A4 paper form, complete the lottery, get the key and access card, and move in directly with their bags. The company will file and arrange the rest.

Finally, the last employee received the key access card. The department manager filled in his information, sorted out the documents, looked at everyone and said, "No overtime today, and no overtime during the three-day May Day holiday. Take care of the moving during these few days, especially for couples with children, who have so much stuff that even a truckload of trucks can't move it all. Take advantage of the holiday to take care of it. Don't wait until the working day to ask for leave to take care of the moving. I won't approve your leave then."

"That's it, dispersed." The department head picked up his briefcase and left the workshop.

A group of employees left the workshop chattering among themselves. Many of them couldn't wait. Houses of residential standards were still unaffordable for the ordinary employees of the company. In the city, the monthly rent for a small apartment starts at more than 1,000 yuan, and for a large apartment starts at more than 2,000 yuan. This does not include water, electricity, and property fees, which cost several hundred yuan.

Their monthly salary is around 4000 to 6000 yuan, and they are obviously reluctant to spend one-third or even half of their salary on housing. Although the salary is not high, it is still about 20% higher than the level of peers. The most important thing is that they have five insurances and one fund, and even the cleaning lady has them.

Just for the five social insurances and one housing fund, even if the salary is cut by 20% above the industry level, there are still a lot of people applying. At present, the company is fully staffed and has no external recruitment, but if there is a job opening, it will be hired in the afternoon if it is posted in the morning.

Now that this housing benefit has been introduced, for the company's grassroots employees, such quality housing cannot be afforded without spending more than 50 yuan a month. A rough calculation is equivalent to a salary increase of more than %. There is no doubt that the company's positions will become more popular among job seekers locally and in the same industry.

You should know that many workers in this profession either live together in company dormitories or rent a single room for a few hundred yuan. The room has nothing but a hard bed and is cold in winter and stuffy in summer. They cannot afford to live in a residential area with a monthly rent of one or two thousand yuan.
