The "2007 Green Paper of Population and Labor," published by Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, shows that, based on systematic investigation of the fixed tracking observation points of China's villages, from 2003 to 2006, the average monthly wage of China's migrant worker continued to grow, and growth has increased more rapidly year after year.

Research shows that from 2003 to 2006, the average monthly wage of the migrant workers, who produced and conducted business outside their home village, increased from 781 Yuan to 953 Yuan, up 22 percent.

Compared with last year, a migrant worker's average monthly wage increased by 2.8 percent in 2004, by 6.5 percent in 2005, and by 11.5 percent in 2006; the growth rate has quickened year after year.

The Green Paper also noted that male migrant workers wages grew faster than that of female migrant workers. From 2003 to 2006, a male migrant workers' wage increased by 22.5 percent, and the growth rate was 0.6 percentage points higher than the female migrant workers'. The wages of migrant workers who once received vocational and technical training has increased faster, from 2003 to 2006. The wages of migrant workers who once received the vocational and technical training have increased by 28.8 percent. The growth rate was 8.7 percentage points higher than that of the migrant workers who did not receive vocational and technical training.
