New career opportunities for downsized people

Career transition, retraining and job creation policies for those affected are key elements in the process of restructuring and streamlining the workforce, ensuring that no one is left behind.

Lao Dong Newspaper had an interview with Associate Professor, Dr. Bui Hoai Son, Standing Member of the National Assembly's Committee on Culture and Education, on this issue.

Sir, when restructuring and streamlining the apparatus, many people will have to change jobs. How should this be resolved to ease the worries of cadres, civil servants, and public employees?

- The restructuring of the organizational structure and streamlining of staff will certainly create concerns for many cadres, civil servants and public employees, because this is a major change, directly related to their work, rights and working environment.

To make this process happen, many people will have to sacrifice their personal interests for the common good.

In this case, each cadre, civil servant and public employee needs to see this change not as a loss, but as an opportunity for the administrative system to become more streamlined and efficient, thereby helping the country develop more quickly and sustainably.

I also think that it is important to have a reasonable support policy. Officials, civil servants and public employees not only sacrifice for the benefit of the collective but also feel the fairness and care from the State.

Policies for career transition, retraining, and creating new job opportunities for those affected are an important part of this process. When they feel that they are not being left behind, but are actually supported to adapt to the new environment, they will more easily accept and participate in this process with a more positive mentality. Policies must be fair, transparent, and provide practical support to attract consensus and commitment from the team of cadres, civil servants, and public employees.

Recently, we have had outstanding mechanisms and policies to encourage many people to retire early. What does this mean?

- Introducing a strong and attractive enough mechanism and policy to encourage cadres who are 2-3 years away from early retirement age to give up their positions to the younger generation is a very suitable mechanism and policy at a time when we are restructuring the apparatus and streamlining the payroll.

This not only helps create opportunities for young staff to develop, but also ensures rotation and innovation in the management system, in line with the spirit of "refined, compact, strong" that we are aiming for.

However, to encourage older cadres to retire early, it is necessary to effectively implement and organize the implementation of issued policies, ensuring fairness and humanity. These policies need to create both financial and benefits attractiveness, such as financial support commensurate with the time of early retirement, or ensuring full pension regimes, not causing disadvantages to them.

More importantly, policies need to show respect and acknowledge the contributions of this generation of cadres throughout their working time. This is not only a matter of rights but also a way to maintain solidarity and consensus in the political system.

Along with introducing strong enough policies, the State will have to spend a considerable amount of money. In your opinion, what resources should the State use to carry out this task?

- The State needs to use financial resources skillfully, effectively and balanced. This is an important task, requiring not only investment but also transparency and responsibility in resource management.

First of all, the State budget is the main source for implementing these policies. However, to reduce pressure on the budget, it is necessary to focus on restructuring public spending, cutting ineffective and wasteful expenditures. This not only helps save money but also creates abundant resources to serve important tasks such as supporting officials to retire early, retrain, or change careers.

The government can also encourage public-private partnerships to support career transition and retraining. Private enterprises, through partnership programs, can contribute part of the funding while also benefiting from the recruitment of experienced and qualified personnel.

In addition, an equally important resource comes from streamlining the apparatus. When the organization is streamlined, administrative costs are reduced, and this savings can be completely reinvested to support related policies. This is an effective way to solve immediate problems while ensuring long-term sustainability.

Thank you!
