eye Lanzhou

In the early morning streets of the city, you'll always spot a few figures with tool bags. They've got skills and hope, quietly waiting for a job. This time, we followed in their footsteps and walked into a special place.

This is the Chengguan District Odd-Jobs Market in Lanzhou. Over the past year, more than 50,000 flexible workers have started their daily work here.Under the global trend of flexible employment, this city has built a "first stop" for strivers.

No more street-corner "luck of the drawjob hunting". Lanzhou rebuilt its flexible employment service system, bringing job registration, consulting, and matching into one hall. An electronic screen shows updates in real time, and staff follow up on the whole process. This helps people find jobs in a quick and exact way. It is a good example of how China protects the rights of flexible workers.

From finding a job to taking a break, every small need of workers is well taken care of: rest area, microwave, water dispenser, phone charger, and a first‑aid kit available all day. This small market supports their stable livelihood and hopes for a better life. While focusing on job placement, it also warms the hearts of them with these small details.

The support for flexible workers goes from offline to online. The Chengguan District Odd-Jobs Market, holds three live job sessions every dayto help more people find jobs.

Now, Lanzhou has built 9 Odd-Jobs Marketsand 45stations，forming a job support network that covers the city, districts, and neighborhoods. So far, they've served over 150,000 workers and helped connect them to nearly 40,000 jobs. Policy support, rights protection, skills training, and job matching, this network shows what really matters to people in this city.

Provide shelter for flexible employment.Let every effort be rewarded and every worker find belonging and happiness in the city.
