RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the development of public health human resource of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCs) in Zhejiang Province from 2016 to 2020, so as to put forward the strategies for the talent team construction of CDCs.@*Methods@#The general information of personnel of CDCs in Zhejiang Province from 2016 to 2020 was collected through China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention. A questionnaire survey and a qualitative interview were conducted to collect the data of staffing, talent training, salary and employee turnover, and to analyze the development of the talent team of CDCs. @*Results@#By 2020, there were 105 CDCs, including 1 provincial, 11 prefectural and 93 county-level CDCs, and 5 277 staff on-the-job. From 2016 to 2020, the number of staff per 10 000 permanent residents in the province, prefecture and county levels were 0.062-0.070, 0.170-0.188 and 0.585-0.604, respectively, which did not meet the standard for the personnel establishment in Zhejiang CDCs; the proportion of the staff with bachelor degree or above increased from 90.05% to 94.25%; the proportion of the health professionals decreased from 82.91% to 80.01%; the proportion of the staff with senior professional titles increased from 35.20% to 45.25%. The results of the qualitative interview indicated a lack of health professionals and high-end talents, a gap between the approved staffing and post requirements, as well as demands for a stable team and higher pay. @*Conclusion@#From 2016 to 2020, the structure of educational background, major and professional title among the on-the-job staff of CDCs in Zhejiang Province has been improving; however, the total allocation of human resource is insufficient, and the stability and treatment of staff need to be further improved.
