The Thailand Labor Pay Policy Will Be Implemented In January 1, 2013.

Charny, chairman of the footwear industry association, < p > < a href= > //www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_p.asp > > Thailand, said that at present, Thailand has more than 6000 shoe companies. But in 2013, there will be a threat to the small and medium sized footwear companies with 20-30%. The policy of 300 baht from the minimum daily wage will be implemented nationwide in January 1, 2013. It is feared that some small and medium-sized shoe companies will not be able to bear the rising labor cost.

< p > Cheney said that the current US and a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_cj.asp" > European economy < /a > has not yet recovered, leading to the influx of all kinds of capital into the ASEAN market and pushing up the market competition in ASEAN. However, according to the association's survey data, the members of the association of 20-30% do not know about AEC, and still produce in the way of low household industrial level, which makes it difficult to adjust itself.

< p > Cheney revealed that the recent small and medium size shoemaking factories of some large a href= "//www.sjfzxm.com/news/index_c.asp" > shoes company < /a > Company have turned to accept various small orders, so the competition between small and medium-sized shoe companies in 2013 will increase.

P, vice president of the Thailand Industrial Institute, said that at present, the small and medium enterprises (SME) of the foreign government have begun to suffer from serious labor shortage. Workers quit their jobs in the rush hour to get into agricultural production, especially when rice and sugar cane are harvested.

< /p >

< p > Wan Luo points out that there are tens of thousands of workers who are engaged in agricultural production and work in factories.

This group of people worked in factories for only 7-8 months in 1 years, and resigned in agricultural production in the other 4-5 months, and then returned to the factory at the end of the busy season.

< /p >

< p > for businessmen, this part of the workers can not be regarded as efficient employees, it is difficult to cultivate and develop, but businesses have to employ them, because there are many areas of labor shortage, and Thai workers are cheaper than employing overseas laborers.

If we hire overseas workers, businesses will need to invest extra money in overseas labor skills and exchange training.

< /p >

< p > Wan Luo said that at present, the small and medium-sized factories in the foreign government have begun to reduce the employment of inexperienced labourers, except those with better technical skills, and at the same time, they will also dismiss less efficient staff so as to reduce the production cost after the implementation of the policy of 300 baht minimum wage.

< /p >

< p > if the above measures are still unable to help businesses alleviate the problem of high production costs, some businesses plan to stop their existing business operations and turn to new factories that invest in government infrastructure projects, such as logistics and pportation systems, because they can help to reduce production costs to some extent, and some businesses are planning to move their production bases to neighboring countries.

< /p >

< p > in the survey of 70 small and medium enterprises, the minimum daily wage of 300 baht policy will have a greater impact on the 29 governs.
