Do you mind telling me about your work in the factory?
Certainly not. I'm a machine operator working in the assembly workshop.
Oh, are you? Then you have a six-day week, don't you?
Yes. And we work eight hours a day, but this includes a one -hour break.
What about the huge machines used in your factory? I know you make heavy machines yourselves. But I wonder if you also use machines imported from abroad.
Most of them are made in China, some even by our factory. Only a few were bought from other countries.
But I see the machines turned out here are quite modem and efficient.
Following the national policy of self - reliance and hard - working struggle, we've tried our best in the past few years to improve our equipment. However, there is still a lot more to do.
Now the question about yourself. I hope you don't mind it. How much do you earn each month?
My monthly wage is 3,500 RMB, not including the extra pay of about 500 for extra work I put in.
That sounds reasonable indeed. I'm very interested in worker's welfare here. What other benefits do you workers get, I wonder?
Like other factories in China, our factory offers free medical service for workers.
