Recently, a total of 301 technicians from express delivery enterprises in Jiangsu Province obtained the first batch of professional titles of "Express Delivery Engineering", including junior and intermediate titles, among which 89 were from Nanjing. The netizen sighed with emotion: "The courier brother can also evaluate the professional title. It may be a senior engineer to deliver the parts to your home in the future!" In fact, this is a misunderstanding. It is not the front-line recruiters who have been awarded the professional titles, but the professional and technical personnel in the express delivery industry.
No "courier brother" has been awarded the title.
"I have enough confidence in the evaluation of intermediate titles, and I am more motivated to work!" Fu Yujin, a 30-year-old key account manager of Suning Logistics Group, graduated from Southeast University with a master’s degree in vehicle application engineering, and is responsible for the development and construction of logistics center. In an interview with the Yangzi Evening News reporter, she said that everyone is in daily contact with front-end couriers, and they don’t understand the connotation of the back-end. The identification of professional titles has made the behind-the-scenes workers get professional recognition for the first time.
The Yangzi Evening News reporter noted that Zhang Shiqing of Kunshan Yuantong Company, who was awarded the junior engineer this time, worked as a courier for six years and later transferred to a management position. Another appraised technician (junior title), Zheng Chuanke of ZTO Express, Kunshan, also became the head of the network department after working as a courier for three years.
As an industry benchmark, Nanjing Shunfeng people told the Yangzi Evening News reporter that a total of 12 people were awarded professional titles, all of which were junior.
What do you think of the title of "courier brother" in the express delivery industry? Yangzi Evening News reporter interviewed several first-line couriers. A little brother bluntly said: "I heard about it, but I still have to write a paper to evaluate my professional title. I can’t write it! Time is money, so it is better to send a few more couriers! "
Jiangsu and other seven provinces have been "early adopters" since last year.
Yangzi Evening News reporter learned from the Provincial Postal Administration on the 18th that the first addition of express engineering specialty in Jiangsu was due to the "Technical Qualification Conditions for Express Engineering Specialty in Jiangsu Province (Trial)" issued at the end of last year. Last year, more than 500 people applied, and a total of 301 people were awarded the evaluation title. Among them, 296 people are junior; Only five are intermediate, from Jiangyun Logistics, Yungui Network Shanghai Branch, Yungui Network, Wuxi SF Express and Suning Logistics; No one has been awarded the titles of deputy senior and full senior. In 2018, a total of seven provinces across the country carried out the evaluation of the title of express delivery project as a pilot.
According to a person from Jiangsu Postal Administration, the initial primary and intermediate titles were organized and carried out by the Jiangsu Postal Industry Title Work Leading Group, while the evaluation of intermediate and senior titles was organized and carried out by the Jiangsu Provincial Title Work Leading Group. This year’s job title evaluation was launched in October. Interested parties please log on to "Jiangsu Express Network" on August 31st to download the form.
Because the evaluation of professional titles requires years to engage in professional and technical work, as well as academic qualifications, the younger brother who delivers express delivery on the first line cannot directly evaluate the professional titles. However, it can be transformed into a courier engineer and technician, and it is expected to get the opportunity to evaluate the title.
Behind the title, you need equity incentive promotion opportunities
Song Qinghui, a well-known economist, said in an interview with Yangzi Evening News that the evaluation of professional titles in the express delivery industry has many tangible benefits, such as changing the social status of excellent express delivery practitioners and increasing their sense of identity with the express delivery industry. But unfortunately, the incentive policies of express delivery companies have not kept up in time.
If it can be implemented, the evaluation of professional titles in express delivery industry may have some positive effects on the whole express delivery industry, but at present these measures are not enough to promote the healthy and long-term development of the industry. Relying only on a professional title certificate, rather than a breakthrough in the actual business level, it is difficult for the outside world to change its views on employees in the express delivery industry.
It is reported that a number of express delivery companies told the Yangzi Evening News reporter that the company has an encouraging attitude, but no supporting incentive policies have been introduced yet.
