To increase productivity and work efficiency

Emulation movements of "Excellent and Creative labor" and "Promoting initiatives for technical improvement, rationalization of production" among officials, union members, employees, and employees have plenty at all levels. Trade unions cooperated with authorities and organizations to launch and actively deploy the movements of many topics of technical improvement, production rationalization, application of scientific and technological advances, undertaking the implementation of works and products, saving raw materials, improving productivity, quality, production and business efficiency of units and enterprises.

For example, Nguyen Sy Hai, electrical supervisor of Asia Packaging Industries Vietnam Co. Ltd. In My Phuoc Industrial Park 2, on performing emulation, has always tried his best to complete the assigned tasks. In particular, Hai actively spends time researching, proposing initiatives, improving technical services at work, and bringing practical results, which is highly appreciated by the Board of Directors. One of the initiatives that Hai is most passionate about and highly appreciated by the Board of Directors is "Editing, installing more levers, and programming to change the operation of cup conveyors". One original cup stamping machine (semi-finished products to stamping cans) only applies to 1 production line, but he added 1 more production line so that 1 cup stamping machine can be used for both lines to improve the operating efficiency of the machine. Hai's initiative has helped the company not have to invest in more cup stamping machines and save investment costs of electricity used for equipment, operating manpower, and other consumable expenses by more than VND 100 million a month.

Nguyen Van Nhat of Leading Star Vietnam Garment Co. Ltd. In Dong An Industrial Park is with the initiative to manufacture machines in the buttonhole stage. Before the improvement, the machine could only close 1 buttonhole for the product at a time. After being improved, the machine automatically closes the second hole to save 35% of the time for each product in the buttonhole process. Besides, he also has the initiative to create an automatic gluing machine to be able to paste about 40,000 cards compared to manual paste of 7,000 cards by one person a day. This initiative helps to increase labor productivity and save costs for businesses by more than VND 375 million a machine a month.
