As of now, provincial Labor Union and higher Trade Union locals have inked cooperation agreements with 34 enterprises and there were 210,000 trade unionists and laborers used products, services from partners with a total value of benefits at nearly VND10billion.

According to statistics, more than 1,700 enterprises in the province provided laborers with meals and there were 92% of them with meals at VND15,000 and above each and no report on food poisoning from them.

Provincial Trade Unions at all levels also teamed up with the local health sector to give a welfare program on healthcare for trade unionists and laborers; mobilized social resources, especially from enterprises to donate gifts and houses of compassion worth VND200million to trade unionists and laborers with difficult circumstances.

In addition, they worked with employers to organize cultural-sports activities for trade unionists and laborers, contributing to taking care their spiritual life; organized dialogues with authorities at all levels for timely support; took part in overseeing the implementation of policies on salary, social insurance, health insurance, unemployment insurance, labor safety-hygiene…for laborers.

Effective models replicated

Luu The Thuan, Head of provincial Labor Union’s Propaganda and Education Commission said that upholding achievements done in 2018, provincial Trade Unions at all levels will effectively implement patriotic emulation movements among trade unionists and laborers during the Workers’ Month 2019. Accordingly, each Trade Union local will be proactive to carry out welfare programs for trade unionists and laborers while coordinating with employers to organize at least one activity or one model taking care of trade unionists and laborers.
