7.2 Enlarge employment and build a sound social security system
We will go all out to create employment. Development of labor-intensive industries, tertiary industries and SMEs of various ownership types must be encouraged. We will encourage people to seek job on their own and become self-employed. Government will reinforce its public responsibility to stimulate job creation and improve public employment service system.

Systems of basic pension and medical insurance in urban areas, unemployment insurance, work injury insurance and maternity insurance must be improved.
