A good labor education is an important measure to train all-round development talents, and is one of the paths to implement the fundamental task of establishing high moral values and cultivating talents. Through the investigation on the current situation of labor education among college students of the post-00s generation, this paper discovers some specific problems, such as the content arrangement of labor education in colleges and universities, students’ utilitarian thinking, appreciating mental work and depreciating physical labour, inconsistent labor cognition and labor behavior, and the construction of training system. In this regard, this paper puts forward some countermeasures, for instance, clarifying the significance of labor education, promoting holistic labor education, studying the creative experience of learning and working, and constructing an effective implementation mechanism, which can provide reference for the reform of labor education.
