The human resources service industry in China still lags behind
and can hardly meet the needs brought about by rapid social and
economic development, according to a research report.
The report, titled the white paper on Chinese human resources
service industry, was issued on Saturday at the opening ceremony of
the sixth Asian Conference of the Academy of Human Resource
Development in Beijing University.
The report said China's human resources service industry is
faced by such problems as low level of marketization, rare supply
of differential services and tailor-made services.
Compared with multinational giants that have already entered the
Chinese market, domestic human resources service organs lag behind
in talents, technology, experience and capital, it said.
The global human resources service industry has achieved rapid
growth in recent years and has become a sunrise industry. According
to statistics cited by the report, the market revenue of global
human resources service will amount to more than US$100 billion in
2007.
The report was jointly written by the Center for Human Resources
Development and Management Research of Beijing University and
Shanghai Foreign Service Co., Ltd..
It is the first time that China has hosted the Asian Conference
of the Academy of Human Resource Development, one of the
influential human resource research institutes in the world. The
conference attracted more than 400 experts and scholars from home
and abroad.
