Brazilian government provides babysitting service for SMEs such as shoes and apparel

At present, SMEs are becoming the driving force behind the rise of emerging countries. Many reports have concretely and vividly confirmed this formulation. In these countries, due to the government's support for them in terms of capital, taxation, etc., the rapid growth of the government has become the largest area of ​​employment. Their pioneering and innovative spirit, in the manufacturing and small commodity markets, also exerts flexibility and adaptability that are difficult for large companies to display. At the same time, the characteristics of SMEs have also determined their lack of ability to withstand risks, especially in the international “cold” situation, which is even more pronounced and weak, which is reflected in the reporter’s report. These advantages and disadvantages are exactly what China needs to learn from and think about when it implements the strategy of rejuvenating small and medium-sized enterprises.

Brazil: Government provides babysitting services for small and micro enterprises In Brazil, small businesses provide most of the country’s jobs, especially in the economic downturn when they absorb a large number of employees who are dismissed by large companies, playing an important role in stabilizing socio-economic development. . The Brazilian government has adopted a series of effective measures, such as setting up a micro-enterprise service station and launching a "mini-business taxation and payment integration system" to help small businesses establish and develop their businesses.

Over 50 percent of the employees in Brazil have no legally defined criteria for the size of the company, and government-related organizations often do not have uniform standards for micro enterprises, small businesses, and medium-sized companies.

The Brazilian National Economic and Social Development Bank believes that the annual turnover of less than 900,000 real (600,000 US dollars) is for micro-enterprises, and between 0.9 million and 7.8 million real (5.2 million) for small businesses. The two division lines are R$ 120,000 (US$ 80,000) and R$ 1.2 million (US$ 800,000) in the IRS.

The Brazilian micro-enterprise support service station has determined that its service targets are: 20 or less manufacturing companies are micro-enterprises, 20 to 100 people are small-scale enterprises, and 10 or less business and service industry companies are micro-enterprises, and 10 to 50 people are small-sized enterprises. .

The data released by the National Geographical Statistics Bureau at the end of August this year shows that in 2008, about 52% of the domestic companies with rapid growth were between 10 and 49 employees.

Service stations and “integrated systems” to help companies develop The 39-year-old Brazilian micro-enterprise support service station is a non-profit organization of public-private partnership that aims to encourage Brazilian micro and small companies to start their own businesses, participate in competition, and achieve sustainable development. . The service station has 788 reception points throughout Brazil, providing targeted services to businesses around the country. Assist small business owners to obtain capital, technology and markets to enhance their own competitiveness.

There are three main tasks for the service station: The first is to hold information on entrepreneurship courses (including remote correspondence) and lectures, various consulting services, and corporate management, marketing, and other aspects. Second, as an intermediary platform to help business owners to contact participants, exhibitors, visits, to help small businesses find partners and customers; Third, help small businesses to contact various financial institutions, effectively reduce the various barriers in the process of corporate **.

The reason why service stations can last long and play a role is largely due to the Brazilian government’s special taxation policy for micro-enterprises and small enterprises. The most important one is the “Small-scale Enterprise Taxation and Payment Integration System” introduced in 1996. ". Brazil is one of the countries with a heavier taxation in South America. There are a total of 58 kinds of taxation, which is much higher than that of the United States. The small companies that have joined the integrated system have paid a one-time monthly payment of corporate income tax, social integration plan fees (ie, employees' dividend reserves), **** tax, industrial product taxes, and social insurance funds, which have reduced the size of the micro-enterprise federation. The tax burden at the level also greatly simplifies the reporting and payment process.

Luis Cournia, professor of economics at the Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, said in an interview with reporters that the integration system allowed micro-enterprises to formalize their tax payments, making their operations consistent with laws and regulations, achieving a virtuous circle and rapid development.

Brazil also introduced the "Small Business Law" in 2004 to further streamline taxation procedures and administrative procedures, facilitate small businesses, and help small businesses obtain government purchase orders, exporters, and new technology. In 2007, an upgraded version of the integrated system, the "Super Integrated System," was introduced, bringing together nine types of taxes, including six federal taxes, one state tax, and one municipal tax, to further facilitate start-ups. .

Difficulties in recruitment of human resources costs In order to understand the current state of survival of Brazilian small businesses, the reporter visited the dealers of overseas Chinese Zhou Yongchang. Zhou Yongchang, 47, was born in Hong Kong and came to Brazil with his family when he was 10 years old. Since then, he has settled in Rio de Janeiro and has become a naturalist. At the age of 21, he chose to start his own business and start a car repair shop. Now 26 years later, his dealership already has a service area of ​​900 square meters of service area and a parking area of ​​4,500 square meters, with an annual turnover of more than 2 million reals (1.33 million US dollars). There are 25 local employees here, repairing more than 30 vehicles of various models every day.

Zhou Yongchang is satisfied with the current operating conditions and external environment of the dealerships. In terms of tax burden, he said that he is the beneficiary of the integrated system. Now he pays a uniform payment to the bank to employees and company taxes and fees every month. The cost of taxes and fees for auto dealers accounts for 20% of the annual turnover. This is the ratio he feels acceptable. "With the integrated system, things have become simpler and save money and worry."

In terms of **, Zhou Yongchang, with his multi-year partnership with suppliers of auto parts and maintenance equipment, purchased in the form of long-term installments, which saved a lot of cash flow.

In comparison, employment is a matter that makes Zhou Yongchang more worried. He said that, on the one hand, the entry threshold for the auto industry is relatively low but the requirements for professional skills of employees are high; on the other hand, the unemployment rate in Brazil is low, and it is difficult to find excellent professional auto repair talents on the market. Once they are found, they must High salary retention, but also need to regularly allow employees to participate in training. At present, the cost of employees' wages and training costs 35% of the annual turnover of the auto dealers, which is a considerable amount of expenditure.

In Zhou Yongchang's view, despite the strong growth momentum of the Brazilian economy over the past few years, the economic base is still fragile. Once the United States and other major economies fluctuate, Brazil is often affected more.
