The "Opinions on Further Ensuring and Improving People's Livelihood and Solving Urgent and Difficult Problems of the Masses" issued recently by the Central Committee and the State Council emphasizes "enhancing the fairness of social security" and a set of policies to "strengthen the bottom-up assistance for low-income groups". It focuses on both "lowering" - enhancing the sense of gain of workers through reasonable increases in the minimum wage standards, and "bottoming" - constructing a more precise hierarchical classification assistance system. With the continuous improvement of policies in recent years, the intensity, accuracy, and warmth of assisting low-income groups have significantly increased. It is also important to note that policies provide more directional guidance, and in practice, it is necessary to refine and implement them according to local conditions.
