Diverse activities to care for union members and workers in Workers' Month 2026

In the Workers' Month 2026, CĐXDVN implements a series of synchronous and practical activities, strongly focusing on grassroots levels with a focus on caring for workers, promoting dialogue and arousing initiative movements throughout the industry.

According to leaders of CĐXDVN, one of the highlights is the "May Dialogue" program and the forum for contributing opinions on building Trade Union organizations. This is identified as an important channel for heads of Party committees, authorities and businesses to directly listen to the thoughts and aspirations of workers, and at the same time receive recommendations to improve policies and trade union organization models in the new context.

In parallel with that, activities to care for union members' lives are widely deployed through the "Thank you to workers" program.

Trade union levels focus on visiting and supporting workers in difficult circumstances, who have had labor accidents, occupational diseases; organize "Trade Union Meals", improve the quality of lunch meals, and promote welfare programs such as preferential sales, periodic health check-ups, psychological counseling, and reproductive health care.

Along with that, the emulation movement for initiatives and technical improvements was strongly launched. The Vietnam Construction Trade Union set a target of having at least 10% of union members participate in proposing initiatives, of which 30% are applied in practice. Typical initiatives will be commended and replicated, contributing to improving labor productivity and production efficiency.

In addition, propaganda work is promoted with many diverse forms, from newspapers to digital platforms, focusing on spreading good models, effective practices and typical workers.

With an approach that takes UN members and workers as the center, towards grassroots levels and focuses on practical efficiency, Workers' Month 2026 of the Vietnam Construction Trade Union is expected to create a clear mark, contributing to building a team of construction workers who are increasingly modern, creative and integrated" - Mr. Pham Hoai Phuong shared.
