Figure 3: create ten million more urban jobs

Original text from the report:

Create ten million more urban jobs; ensure that the registered urban unemployment rate does not rise above 4.6%. With 7.27 million college students graduating this year, we need to create more jobs, provide non-stop employment and business startup services, and increase the rate of employment and business startup for college graduates.
We will increase support for urban residents who have difficulty finding jobs, ensure that at least one member in every zero-employment family gets a job, and do an effective job in resettling and providing reemployment to workers laid off due to the shutdown of outdated production facilities. We will provide coordinated employment services to rural migrant workers and demobilized service personnel. We will work hard to create more rewarding and higher quality jobs so that people who work can live a decent and dignified life.

There are two bright spots worthy of our attention on this year's employment issue. First, giving more attention to college graduates, solving the structural problem, and conducting more active employment policies to allow them to find suitable jobs of their choice. Second, to ensure that at least one member in every family gets a job, which will be an important indicator of improving standards of living.
