Labor shortage expected to hit after Spring Festival

Labor shortages in the southern province of Guangdong are expected to worsen after Spring Festival.

The labor shortfall is expected to reach between 1 million and 1.2 million, as a large number of migrant workers have returned home for family reunions, according to Guangdong Human Resources and Social Security Department on Thursday.

Guangdong, where a number of foreign-funded companies, joint ventures and privately run firms are located, normally has a shortage of about 400,000 workers, labor authorities said.
