农民工是中国现代化进程的见证人和建设者,在经济社会发展中具有重要作用。但从基本权益的实现程度上看,农民工是生活在城市边缘的弱势群体,社会保障没有得到充分落实。保障农民工权益是实现社会公平正义的标志。农民工社会保障的缺失是生产力与生产关系不相适应的反映,是劳动异化的表现,违背“以人为本”的要求。农民工社会保障缺失问题已成为影响社会和谐的焦点问题之一。解决农民工社会保障问题,我国需要以维护全体公民的权益为根本原则,逐步建立严密的法律体系,将社会保障纳入国家经济与社会发展规划,从而建立公平公正的社会保障机制。 Migrant workers are witnesses and builders of the process of China’s modernization and play an important role in economic and social development. However, from the perspective of the realization of basic rights and interests, migrant workers are the disadvantaged groups living on the edge of cities, and social security has not been fully implemented. Guaranteeing the rights and interests of migrant workers is a sign of achieving social fairness and justice. The lack of social security for migrant workers is a reflection of incommensurability between productive forces and production relations, a manifestation of labor alienation, and a violation of the “people-oriented” requirement. The problem of lack of social security for migrant workers has become one of the most important issues affecting social harmony. To solve the problem of social security for migrant workers, our country needs to safeguard the rights and interests of all citizens as the fundamental principle, and gradually establish a strict legal system to integrate social security into the national economic and social development planning so as to establish a fair and equitable social security system.
