There is no denying the fact that providing incentive policies for laborers will help businesses keep them. Binh Duong Garment One-Member Co.Ltd. with nearly 3,000 workers is a typical example for this. The company has always paid more attention to the lives of workers with many incentive policies, including providing free accommodations for workers, organizing tours for them…These things have helped the company keep its workforce. After the Tet holiday 2011, the company has not faced instability of workforce.

Similarly, Thai Binh Investment Joint Stock Co. in Di An district with 14,000 laborers has also taken good care of the lives of workers with a lot of preferential policies. This has helped the company not encounter a shortage of laborers for production after the Tet holiday. Apart from free accommodations, the company’s workers have enjoyed substantial activities held by the company’s Trade Union; received satisfactory Tet bonus and salary levels…

Nguyen Dinh Nhuan, Deputy General Director of Thai Binh Investment Joint Stock Co. said that as of last week, more than 95% of company workers have come back to work. This week, it is sure that there will be 100% of company workers resuming work after the Tet holiday. The company has felt secured in realizing its production and export plans this year.

Many other businesses with good policies for workers have also not faced instability of workforce like Binh Duong Garment One-Member Co.Ltd. and Thai Binh Investment Joint Stock Co. Vinamit Joint Stock Co. in Ben Cat district has so far seen more than 95% of workers coming back to work. According to the company, the remaining workers will also resume work in the next few days and there will be no shortage of workers herein.

Noticeably, many businesses have not only kept their laborers, but also lured additional new laborers by good doings. For example, in addition to well realizing policies on the Tet bonus and salary, a woodwork company in Tan Uyen district provided its workers with the labor introduction vouchers. After the Tet holiday, the company will give jobs for those who have the company’s labor introduction vouchers. Each of them will also receive a bonus of VND300,000. As a result, the company has successfully received a large number of laborers after the Tet holiday.

Mr.Nhuan said that good policies are seen as key to helping businesses avoid instability of workforce in early year. Businesses need to take good care of the spiritual and material lives of laborers for stable and sustainable development. If receiving good care, workers will keep their mind on work, make contributions and have a strong attachment to businesses.
