(HBO) – Hoa Binh currently houses eight industrial parks (IPs) with more than 19,400 workers, 90 percent of whom are locals. Companies in those facilities have complied well with the country’s labour laws and regulations, improving living standards and cultural life of the workers.
Hoa Binh IP workers enjoy better care.
Relevant authorities in Hoa Binh have translated the
country’s labour policies into reality and cooperated to implement plans
relating to improving the workers’ cultural life. Funding and land areas have
been allocated for the construction of housing, kindergartens, medical
facilities and cultural and sport centres for the IP workers.
Three kindergartens have been established to take care of
over 580 children of the local IP workers. Five companies have financially
supported workers to cover tuition fees for their kindergarten-aged children,
and five others designated a room for female workers to extract and store their
breast milk.
The provincial People’s Committee has earmarked 225 million
VND to support a 28.6-billion-VND social housing project for IP workers in
Luong Son district and granted approval for the second phase of a similar
project, worth 59.5 billion VND, at the Da River Left Bank Industrial Park.
IP enterprises have basically complied well with labour laws
and regulations, particularly in terms of wages and welfare benefits.
As the COVID-19 pandemic has been affecting the life of IP
workers in the province, the provincial Trade Union has closely cooperated with
relevant authorities to settle labour issues caused by the pandemic, abd the
provincial Labour Conferderation presented 3,000 anti-bacterial masks and 200
hand sanitisers to enterprises at Luong Son IP and Da River Left Bank IP. The
Labour Conferderation has also donated 30 million VND to several other
companies to help them purchase masks and hand sanitisers for their workers./.
