However, influenced by economic development, cultural traditions and historical factors, modern social work in China which started in 1920s has not enjoyed mature, technical and professional development though. Moreover, enough attention has not been paid to social work by Baotou Government which leads to the lack of appropriate social policies and sluggish actions in the development of social work.Meanwhile, although social work has been recognized as an occupation, its degree of recognition is still very low affected by many factors such as the social work group itself, organizations and society.According to the fact that the social recognition is not high, the outflow of social talent is very serious and the social work resources waste a lot, the author chose 110 social worker working in community, enterprise, and civil social workers and conducted a questionnaire survey.
