In Son La, the Provincial Labor Federation is allocated support to 2,050 union members, with a total budget of more than 1 billion VND. Beneficiaries are union members with outstanding achievements in labor and production; actively participating in trade union activities; union members in difficult circumstances with low incomes. The large scale of support is widespread, clearly showing the concern of the Trade Union organization for the lives of union members and workers, especially in highland areas like Son La.
The outstanding new feature of this year's program is the application of e-voucher support, allowing union members to actively shop online, flexibly in terms of time and space. The goods on the "Trade Union Tet Market" are all controlled in terms of quality and preferential prices, helping union members feel secure in choosing.
Ms. Thai Thi Mai - Vice President of the Provincial Labor Federation - said that the whole province has sent over 50 grassroots trade union officials to directly accompany union members throughout the program participation process, from registration, receiving e-vouchers, ordering to handling arising situations.
This direct support is especially meaningful for older union members who have little access to technology. Trade union officials have provided specific step-by-step guidance, from how to choose products, enter delivery addresses, confirm invoices to saving successful order statuses. Many grassroots trade unions are also flexible in establishing online support groups to promptly answer problems, contributing to increasing the rate of successful orders.
Statistics from the Provincial Labor Federation, up to now, the whole province has had 1,516/2,050 orders successfully placed by union members through the online "Trade Union Tet Market" platform. Through surveys, the majority of union members and workers highly appreciate the program with the advantages of rich goods, simple operation, guaranteed quality, and suitable for actual working conditions.
Taking advantage of the lunch break, Ms. Ha Thi Tam - a worker at Moc Chau Red Flag Tea Joint Stock Company, Thao Nguyen ward - opened her phone to order. She shared: "Thanks to the 500,000 VND support voucher, I have chosen many essential items for my family during Tet. This year shopping is much more convenient because there are trade union officials guiding each step". For Ms. Tam, the successful order announcement is also the time to clearly feel the Tet atmosphere approaching.
Not only caring for life, the online "Trade Union Tet Market - Spring 2026" is also associated with the goal of promoting the consumption of Vietnamese goods, responding to the Campaign "Vietnamese people prioritize using Vietnamese goods". Through a unified platform, the Trade Union organization has contributed to expanding the distribution channel of domestic products, forming a safe and controlled consumption habit.
From the initiative of union members, the companionship of responsibility of trade union officials to flexible and grassroots-oriented organization, the program has created a positive effect in the days leading up to Tet. This activity not only helps workers feel more secure about their lives but also strengthens their belief in the role and position of the Trade Union organization in caring for and protecting the rights of union members.
