To be honest, in terms of welfare housing allocation, "Polar Bear" did not have any advantages over other units in the past.
Because there is no other way, where is the room for movement and space? You have to try your best to build a good relationship with the housing management office, hoping that they can take more care of you.
But things are different now. There are policies from above. It all depends on the "Great Man"'s "Conversation on Construction Industry and Housing Issues" in April.
"Polar Bear" has a legitimate reason to respond to the above call and can build new buildings with its own funds to solve the housing problem of employees.
The new building has now broken ground. It is located in the southeast corner of the factory. According to the plan, it will build three six-story buildings with four unit doors.
Seriously, how many factories in Beijing have such great capabilities? The Municipal Grain Bureau, the Commerce Bureau, the First Lighting Bureau, and the Second Lighting Bureau are nothing more than similar building plans.
That is to say, they are afraid that other units will be jealous, and the factory area is not large enough, so they really can't find a place. Otherwise, "Polar Bear" can build three more buildings. Then at least half of the existing employees can move into new homes.
But even so, this is enough for internal employees to cheer.
Because everyone believes that as long as the work is done well, with the strength of the "Polar Bear", it will be effortless to solve the problem of housing for everyone. Their new house is just around the corner, not far ahead.
As for the arrangement further down, it is the allocation of in-demand commodities unique to the planned economy period.
At that time, because many commodities needed to be purchased with coupons, coupons for industrial products were issued to employees by their units.
In addition to the general "industrial coupons", there are also special coupons such as "bicycle tickets", "sewing tickets", "TV tickets" and "refrigerator tickets".
Lots are usually used for allocation, depending on who is lucky, which is essentially the same as the current car lottery.
Of course, in addition, meat, eggs, cooking oil and other foods that are difficult to buy outside are also distributed on a per-person basis.
Nowadays, some units still retain the practice of giving each employee a five-liter barrel of cooking oil during holidays, which is generally a continuation of this traditional welfare.
I really have to say here that whether it is industrial products or food, "Polar Bear" has unique advantages.
This is all because "Polar Bear" is the "son" of "Yi Qing Ju".
The jurisdiction of the "First Light Bureau" includes food, brewing, papermaking, glass, daily chemicals, musical instruments, optical glasses, electric light sources, lamps, pen making, clocks, sewing machines, bicycles, light industrial machinery, enamel, ceramics and
More than a dozen industries, including cigarettes, involve hundreds of manufacturers, more than a thousand products, and nearly 10,000 colors.
The products are mainly daily consumer goods, which are most closely related to people's lives, and cover almost all categories of light industrial products that are in short supply.
Since there are so many awesome brother units, what do you want?
For example, bicycles have long been common among workers working in "Polar Bear". Except for those who cannot ride, almost everyone has one. Watches are even more basic equipment. The share of other industrial products is also much higher than that of other factories.
For example, when there was a shortage of soap in the first two years, there was no shortage of "Polar Bear" employees. Like this year when there was a beer shortage, "Polar Bear" employees distributed "Five Star" bottles of beer twice in the summer at the rate of half a dozen per person.
.
It is even more commonplace to share fish, meat, eggs, fruits, peanuts, rice, and flour during festivals.
So much so that when something is given out to someone from Polar Bear, when they leave the factory, they will always be asked by passers-by where they bought it. At this time, when it is said that the thing was given by the company, everyone is envious, it is so embarrassing.
Yes, there are also free sodas and popsicles provided in the summer. Of course, those who are near the water are on a first-come, first-served basis.
The only regret is that some units give one to two weeks of high temperature vacation in summer. This kind of benefit "polar bears" will never be able to enjoy. They must be busier as the weather gets hotter.
Finally, coupled with the reimbursement of heating expenses for one winter, this completes the welfare package for most enterprises and institutions.
But don’t be busy. This is not over yet. “Polar Bears” also have several unique benefits of their own.
The first is to reimburse the monthly ticket fee in full.
Anyone whose family residence is far away from their workplace enjoys this benefit.
How far is this farther distance? There are four bus stops and above. As long as employees whose address exceeds this range, they can take the bus for free every month.
The second is cultural and entertainment benefits.
Considering that employees' spare time cultural life is monotonous and boring, young people are full of energy but have nowhere to relax, and they often feel idle and bored.
In order to enrich the amateur cultural life of employees, "Polar Bear" often invites film screening teams to show outdoor movies. The location is in the open space of the workplace of the unit, a white screen is hung, the wires are pulled up, the projector is set up, and the show starts as soon as it gets dark.
Today, an additional item has been added, that is, two TV sets have been installed in the employee activity room. One is black and white, and the other is color, which are open every evening. Employees can watch the TV program until it ends.
In fact, there are other things such as getting some movie theater tickets, or going to the theater to watch Peking Opera, and reimbursing a certain amount of book and newspaper fees, but that is the treatment of cadres.
Third, "Polar Bear" also has its own free nursery.
In order to relieve the worries of both working people, "Polar Bear" specially set aside several houses in the factory area and arranged several female employees to take care of these children full-time.
The factory is rich. The facilities are actually no worse than those of regular kindergartens. There are beds, benches, tables, chairs, toys, little books, and there are slides, swivel chairs, and swings outside the house.
The canteen specially prepares meals for children. Most of them include noodles, steamed buns, dumplings and porridge without scallions and ginger.
Moreover, the nursery not only takes care of those preschool children. Children who have already gone to school will not be supervised after school in the afternoon. They can also come here to do homework, read little books, and wait for their parents to go home from get off work.
How friendly and humane it is. If nothing else, this solves a big problem of clean water. It’s really an unexpected blessing that people were anxious about.
Anyway, to sum up, being an employee of "Polar Bear" is different from working in other places.
There are many welfare items like these, which may seem trivial and ridiculous today, or a little unbelievable. But to be honest, people outside are jealous of earning twice the salary.
After all, the historical conditions are here. This is the era of planned economy, commodity trading is too underdeveloped, and many things can only be solved by the government and units. The "Polar Bear" can do this, and it is worthy of its employees.
It's close to communism.
It is precisely because of these excellent benefits that employees are so proud that they hold their chests and heads high when entering and exiting the factory. Who wouldn't treat someone differently when they say they are a "polar bear" when they go out? This company is awesome.
ah.
Therefore, this also plays a role in stabilizing the team, attracting talents, and uniting efforts.
So, knowing this, these young people who just came to report today can't be happy. Before they even started, they really felt a sense of honor as employees of "Polar Bear".
To be honest, it is more practical and stimulating than leadership encouragement and factory history education.
But despite having said this, there is one extremely important benefit that Zhao Honglin did not mention.
What? The food standard in the staff canteen.
So why?
The reason is quite simple. It won't be noon soon. No matter how nice it is, it's better to see it than to hear it a hundred times.
Isn't it better than letting these six newcomers experience it for themselves?
