Labor relations are the most important and complex social relations, and their content is highly sensitive and the forms are complex and diverse. Under the background of globalization and informatization, a large number of new labor relations have emerged. Due to the lack of a mature regulatory mechanism, China's current labor relations are generally more fragile than before, and the number of labor violation cases and labor dispute cases has continued to increase. In order to meet the needs of maintaining harmonious labor relations under the new situation, it is necessary to further improve the labor relations coordination system and establish a professional team for labor relations coordination.

The labor relations coordinator is the lowest-level undertaker of the interest coordination mechanism, appeal expression mechanism, contradiction mediation mechanism, and rights protection mechanism of the employer and the employee. The labor relationship coordination work has heavy responsibility and professionalism. It requires employees not only to have a serious and responsible attitude, an objective and fair consciousness, but also to have professional knowledge in labor relations and labor security laws, as well as skilled communication and communication skills.

At present, labor relations coordinators are mainly distributed in regional mediation agencies, local industry unions, industry associations, entrepreneurs associations, and internal human resource management, labor union, and legal departments of employers. By the end of 2004, nearly 200,000 labor dispute mediation committees had been established nationwide and more than 8,000 regional labor dispute mediation organizations. At the same time, more and more enterprises have begun to establish and improve internal labor relations coordination mechanisms, and are equipped with professional labor relations coordinators. Hundreds of thousands of people are fully engaged in related work. With the implementation of the "Labor Contract Law" and the strengthening of the establishment of an enterprise's labor relations coordination mechanism, the demand for coordinators in labor relations will increase. However, the number and quality of employees currently do not meet this demand. . The establishment of a new profession of labor relations coordinator is of great significance to meet the needs of society, improve the professional level of employees, improve their ability to solve labor and capital problems, and promote the establishment of harmonious and stable labor relations.
