Blue-collar wages are usually no more than 1,000 yuan

From the high-ranking general manager to the incoming and outgoing From clerical staff in luxury business centers to ordinary workers who operate machinery, there are gold-collar workers, white-collar workers, pink-collar workers, gray-collar workers, and blue-collar workers. The color of the collar also interprets the new concept of career.

A survey shows that China's workplace has changed the "dualized" structure of "managers" and "laborers" in the past. It is now based on knowledge level, professional characteristics, job level, workplace status and salary. Divide and present a "diversified" attack. People from all walks of life in the workplace have very different living conditions, different lifestyles, different work characteristics, and huge disparities in economic income, forming the "five collars" in the workplace, namely: gold collar, white collar, pink collar, gray collar, and blue collar.

The "five collars" refer to each collar***

In the Chinese workplace, people have become accustomed to using the color of the "collar" to divide different groups of people.

The color of the collar also interprets the new concept of career.

It originates from the color symbols of work clothes that have been or are being used in developed countries. "Blue-collar workers" are required to work on the front line of production and have strong hands-on skills.

Since then, people have used their unique imagination to derive a series of professional titles, such as "gold collar", "pink collar", etc. "Jinling" refers to the group of people who can make the most money, and also refers to the owners of wealth, such as managers of large companies, big brokers, big bosses, etc., especially those in the industrial and commercial circles, economic management circles, and financial circles.

Question 4: What does white collar mean? Generally speaking, it is gold collar.

Question 5: What does white collar mean? What is a white-collar worker?

Maybe you have been yearning for the white-collar class for a long time; maybe you sneer at the white-collar class...

But no matter what, we cannot deny that white-collar workers gave birth to and promoted many industries. development. Today, white-collar workers have evolved into a diverse existence divided into classes and levels. So, what is the true definition of the "white-collar" class at this time? Who does it cover?

As the name suggests, white-collar workers refer to neatly dressed non-manual workers. In fact, "white-collar" entered China as a complete concept. It began in the early 1980s when foreign companies set up branches in China, and employees of foreign companies began to appear, special groups of people, special lifestyles, or the white-collar class, white-collar workers Culture was born as well. With the development of the economy, white-collar workers are constantly given new meanings. Today's white-collar workers have evolved into senior white-collar workers, intermediate white-collar workers, and ordinary white-collar workers.

Senior white-collar workers, often referred to as gold collar workers, generally have a monthly salary of more than 50,000 yuan before they have the opportunity to enter this class. Most of the people in this class are CEO-level figures in companies. Intermediate white-collar workers refer to people with a monthly income between 5,000 yuan and 50,000 yuan. People in this class are mostly corporate managers, that is, managers and supervisors. Ordinary white-collar workers are those with a monthly income between 2,000 yuan and 5,000 yuan. Of course, white-collar workers in different regions also have different classification standards, but they are generally just these levels, just with different levels of income.

Identity of senior white-collar workers

As senior white-collar workers, money is no longer a problem for them. For them, choosing a residence is more about choosing a geographical advantage and a symbol of status. The additional value a home can bring is far greater than the cost they would pay to live somewhere. Therefore, most high-end white-collar workers choose to live in central CBD areas or suburban areas with beautiful surroundings. Senior white-collar workers who choose to live in the core CBD area are buying time with money, while those who choose to live in suburban villas are buying status with money. The simple pursuit of the mood of life has become a thing in the memory of senior white-collar workers, and the taste of life has evolved into an accessory to career and identity. At this time, high-end villas in the CBD core area and suburbs have fulfilled their ideals.

For example, Times Haoyuan: Times Haoyuan is located in the core area of ??the CBD central business district in Yuzhong District, adjacent to the metropolis. It is an international business apartment integrating business and residence. This meets the practical needs of senior white-collar workers in the CBD area for timely work and international communication, and also buys a lot of time for their busy lives. At the same time, despite various restrictions, being able to own your own residence on limited land in the core area of ??the CBD is in itself a proof of identity.

For example, Beverly Garden: The residential Beverly Garden is located in the Northern New District of Chongqing. It is a pure villa community covering an area of ??about 200,000 square meters. Its architectural concept is based on the highly respected Beverly Garden in California, USA. It is based on the cultural and educational residence of a wealthy family in Lishan and the single-crystal independent villa. On the first floor of Beverly Mansion, there is a specially designed large floor-to-ceiling glass hall with a height of about six meters, which injects sufficient natural lighting into the interior. Each household has a private lift directly to each floor, highlighting the convenience and comfort of life. Maybe everyone knows that suburban villas are not very convenient for transportation, but for senior white-collar workers who own cars, nothing matters. What matters is whether the residence can match their status. The unique respect of high-end villas just satisfies the psychology of high-end white-collar workers.

Some people say that real estate properties in the CBD core area and high-end villas are all "sky-high". This is only for ordinary people, but for senior white-collar workers whose wealth is just a number, rarity is precious and can better reflect the nobility of their status.

Therefore, for CBD core areas and high-end villas, the important thing is not to win by price, but to create a noble feeling.

The mood of mid-level white-collar workers

Mid-level white-collar workers have the same requirements for housing as they do for red wine in the bar. They yearn for the best, but they still choose what suits them best. They can easily receive tens of thousands of dollars in salary every month, and their petty bourgeoisie sentiment is deeply rooted in their bones and is also evident in their lives. Intermediate white-collar workers’ preference for urban life and fashion dictates that they cannot live far away from the city. At the same time, mid-level white-collar workers attach great importance to the living environment and landscape. Therefore, most mid-level white-collar workers live in areas that are close to the core CBD area and have a beautiful environment. At this time, garden houses and large communities emerged, satisfying the dreams of mid-level white-collar workers.

For example, Jinsha Waterfront: Jinsha Waterfront is close to Yu'ao Bridge and Jialing River Bridge, only one bridge away from Yuzhong District...gt; gt;

When used in games, it is ONLINE GAME, online games, such as Sword OL, Fairy Sword OL, etc. Another common application is when applied to women, which is the abbreviation of "Office Lady" , explained in Chinese as "office girl".

Question 8: What is the current concept of "white-collar workers"? Blue-collar and white-collar:

Ma Qiufeng: We have not carefully examined the concept of blue-collar, but we have read some books. This concept was proposed in the 1950s when the United States entered informatization. The ruling class of American society refers to blue-collar workers as those engaged in manual labor, such as production workers. For the first time, those engaged in blue-collar workers are lower than white-collar workers. Therefore, according to the sociological concept, blue-collar workers are engaged in manual work. This time I heard Mr. Duan say that times are changing, and I think this concept is also changing. Today, everyone has different understandings. Among blue-collar workers, there are Rui Lan, Pu Lan, and Deep Blue. Pu Lan is those who are engaged in manual labor, and Rui Lan is the intermediate class, which may change like white-collar workers. Deep blue refers to people with certain skills.

I think blue-collar workers should not include engineers or senior professionals. It also refers to the relatively large and large number of people engaged in the front line of production in society. From a disciplinary perspective, blue-collar workers include the working class, but they still have certain technical expertise. Ruilan should be between white-collar workers and blue-collar workers. In terms of income, blue-collar workers are not necessarily lower than white-collar workers. This is reflected in many surveys in the United States. Ruilan's income is actually higher than that of ordinary white-collar workers. White-collar workers are ordinary office workers. Most of the so-called white-collar workers work in offices. White-collar workers in offices also have a hierarchy.

There are also Jinling:

The Jinling class is a highly concentrated class of social elites, aged between 25 and 45 years old, well-educated, with certain work experience and business experience. With planning ability, professional skills and certain social relationship resources, the annual salary is between 150,000 and 400,000. This class does not necessarily own the means of production, but it owns a company's most important technology and management rights.

The golden-collar class is generally senior management of foreign-funded enterprises, Chinese representatives of foreign business institutions in China, managers of larger private companies, senior leaders of state-owned enterprises, etc.

White-collar: A class that engages in intellectual work and is required to wear formal clothing such as suits when working.

Gray-collar:

It is a term for a certain type of professional group. , Compared with "white collar" and "blue collar", "grey collar" staff have both a strong theoretical knowledge level and a relatively strong hands-on ability. Simply put, he is a person who can use his brain as well as his hands.

Blue-collar: refers to the working class that engages in manual labor and is required to wear uniforms. Plain blue and dark blue are engaged in manual labor, and Ruilan is the intermediate class, which may change like white-collar workers. Deep blue refers to people with certain skills.

White-collar workers first had this definition abroad, and then gradually the concept of white-collar workers also came into being in China. White-collar workers are ordinary office workers. Most of the so-called white-collar workers are people who work in offices and engage in mental work. White-collar workers in office jobs also have a hierarchy.

In foreign countries or in megacities, there are many large companies with good benefits, high income, and stable positions, so white-collar workers are an enviable career.

White-collar workers in office buildings are the first to be known to people. Most of them are well-educated and are hired by their bosses because of their skills. They know how to dress themselves well and can stand alone at work. They become more optimistic in the face of the unpredictable world, and their methods of dealing with problems become more practical. According to American standards, white-collar workers refer to people with an annual salary of US$80,000 who engage in purely intellectual work.

Except for a few highly technical industries, most "white-collar workers" are in crisis. The imperfect labor system prevents white-collar workers from getting the protection they deserve.
