由于社会分工的形成,不同的人群被划分到不同的阶层。
“X领”阶层就是一种普遍的说法,它反映了个人的社会地位以及在生产过程中所承担的职责。
“白领”指的是管理人员,介于资本家和普通工人之间,也被称为“高级打工人”。
一些著名大公司中有一些超级高薪的打工人,年薪远超一般富人,被称为“打工皇帝”。
普通的工人被称为“蓝领”,主要从事体力劳动,在工厂的生产线上工作。
随着生产自动化水平的提高,“钢领”出现了,开始取代传统的工人,成为生产中的重要角色。
这也直接带来了两个结果:一是劳动生产力水平提高,二是大量出现的失业人员推动了第三产业——服务业的扩大。
在服务业中,出现了以女性为主的“粉领”阶层。
“粉领”是第三产业的主要力量,在服务行业中具有重要地位。
信息社会正在改变我们的社会结构,形成新的社会阶层。
与电视、电脑和互联网一同成长的@世代代表了信息时代的新人类。
由于21世纪是一个完全信息化的时代,@世代将成为21世纪的“金领”阶层。
