At a recent job fair in northeast China's Liaoning Province, some employers offered great welfare packages, including insurance, holiday presents and paid vacations. These companies were flooded with eager jobseekers who believed working in such places would make them feel like home.

The Workers' Daily carries a commentary, saying that if a company fails to provide its employees with a sense of belonging, it will not be able to keep them with a decent paycheck alone.

The article says the job fair serves as a good example. An employer must keep in mind that to provide its employees with comprehensive care has become a vital force in maintaining the company's competitive edge.

Nowadays, many enterprises try every possible means to reduce the cost of labor, ignoring or even trampling on employees' rights and interests. The fact is, some companies are unable to recruit new workers even with increased payment.

A unique company culture plus human-oriented management is the key to successfully keeping talented employees. The Workers' Daily article concludes by stressing that in a society where individual development is more important than ever, providing a sense of belonging for employees should be an enterprise's priority before it calculates the cost of labor.
