At the end of March, that businesses laid off workers due to unfavorable business, lack of orders due to the effects of the COVID-19 epidemic, so she had to quit her job.

According to Yen, the sewing vocational class has more than 20 students, most of them unemployed due to the effects of the COVID-19 epidemic. In the classroom, she was guided by teachers in detail, from theory to practice of sewing on the machine. “I think the class is very necessary and meaningful for unemployed workers. Just learned in less than 4 months, I was able to cut and sew some fashion products for myself. After this vocational class, I intend to apply for a job at a garment company. I think, during your time off, you should register for vocational training to improve your knowledge and skills.” – said Ms. Yen.

 

Similarly, Ms. Nguyen Thi Hue, who worked at TaeKwang Vina Industrial Joint Stock Company (Bien Hoa City) decided to quit her job in April to open a small business.
