Abstract: Objective To analyze the human resource status of centers for disease control and prevention(CDCs) in China from 2016-2020,put forward corresponding suggestions for existing problems,and provide reference for optimizing the human resource structure of CDCs. Methods The basic information of CDCs in China from 2016 to 2020 was selected,including gender,age,working years and technical positions of professional and technical personnel,and the relevant data were compared and analyzed statistically. Results From 2016 to 2020,the total number of CDCs in China was 191 627,190 730,187 826,187 564 and 194 425 people,respectively,with an increase of 2 798 people in 2020 as compared with 2016.There are more women than men in professional and technical personnel. The people aged 35-<45 and 45-<55 years old accounted for the large proportion,which the number was 47 448 and 51 291 people,respectively. The number of working years was mainly 20-<30 and ≥30 years,which the number was 45 541 and 46 759 people,respectively. The number of professional technicians with bachelor's and master's degrees is increasing year by year,with an increase of 31.8% in 2020 as compared with 2016. Most of people had junior professional titles,which was 77 828,but the proportion of senior titles increased year by year,with an increase of 35.4% in 2020 as compared with 2016. Conclusions The total amount of human resources in the CDCs in China is insufficient,the educational level of the staff is fair but the overall human resource structure is not reasonable,and high-level talents are lacking.It is necessary to strengthen the allocation of human resources inCDCs,optimize the structure of professional and technical human resources,and promote the high-quality development of disease prevention and control.
