China has launched a plan to reform personnel management in media institutions, according to central authorities.
The plan, approved by the Central Leading Group for Deepening Overall Reform, aims to retain talent and bring new blood into the journalism industry by forming more stable labor relations between media institutions and their personnel.
Instead of service dispatching, the plan calls on media institutions to establish relatively stable personnel and labor relations with staff in core roles such as editing and broadcasting.
The plan will be trialed in major media institutions before being rolled out nationwide.
