纵然时代变迁，但春节返乡仍是主流选择，特别是服务行业，外来务工人员占比高、人员流动性较强， 本就存在季节性用工缺口。像北京这样的超大型城市，对服务人员的需求量很大，逢年过节用工紧张更 加凸显。这些行业与日常生活又紧密相关。比如一些住家保姆返乡后，部分老人和孩子可能缺人照料。 再如外卖、代驾、网约车等行业，其从业人员供需情况一定程度上也关乎城市运行效率。 肖棠 春节临近，随着越来越多外来务工人员开始回乡行程，很多大城市都面临一定程度的用工紧张，外卖、 餐饮、家政、养老等服务行业可能会"一工难求"。 首先，针对不同工种可以有不同的策略。比如某老年公寓，90%以上的护理员是外地员工，但该公寓每 年11月会提前启动人员招聘储备，再进行集中培训，到春节前后，能保持正常用工量的八九成。而像文 创店、咖啡馆等，将招工信息放到社交平台，往往能吸引不少年轻人。在"涨薪"之外，还要注重"暖 心"。比如某外卖平台，每年都会发放春节签到补贴，站点还会准备年夜饭、现金红包。事实上，相关 部门也在积极行动。比如，今年一二月份，本市人力社保局将开展相关专项行动，聚焦餐饮、物流等节 日用工密集行业，打通用工对接"最后一公里"。 往深远看，热 ...
