Taking best efforts to improve labors’ life
To assure labor’s right, earlier this year, Bien Hoa Labor Federation had promptly cooperated and implemented the guideline for Decree 122/2015/ND-CP signed on Nov 14th, 2015 by the government about setting the minimum wage by area for labors in the enterprises and co-operations… together with supportive activities for labors on Tet holidays. With such efforts and propagation, Chairman of Bien Hoa Labor Federation, Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc An said with excitement that there were 122/138 (88.4%) of the enterprises and co-operations having their labor unions readjusting the new minimum wage for their labors following regulations. There were also some enterprises which adjusted their labors’ minimum wage base on their years of work for the enterprise, supported their living cost, paid bonus of 5 – 10% of total new wage for heavy or hazardous works. The other enterprises which had financial difficulties were also trying their best to find solution to adjust their labor’s wage.
Beside of actively monitoring labors’ wage bonus, and policies, Union Bases are also considering improving welfare entitlements in order to improve labors’ life and also update them into the enterprises’ internal laws and regulations as the agreement for collective labor in the enterprises. Until the early of June, there were 126/158 (79.75%) of the enterprises and co-operations signed the agreement for collective labor. Remarkably, many agreements bring more advantages to the labors than the State law does.
