Kiều Vũ |

The Binh Ngo Lunar New Year 2026 is being implemented by the Trade Union organization with many activities with the motto "All union members and workers have Tet, celebrate Tet".

Union members and workers across the country not only have Tet but also have a truly joyful Tet. Because the Trade Union does not leave anyone behind.

Online shopping to access digital transformation

Learning from experience and promoting the effectiveness of the online Trade Union Tet Market, the Binh Ngo Lunar New Year 2026, the online Trade Union Tet Market continues to be organized and deployed early. Right from the beginning of January 2026, when the online Trade Union Tet Market began to "open", trade union officials experimented to have a basis to guide union members and workers to buy goods conveniently. The Hanoi Labor Federation was assigned by the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor to allocate shopping vouchers at the online Trade Union Tet Market to 9,000 union members and 300 guiding officials.

The Hanoi City Labor Federation has distributed all shopping vouchers to commune and ward trade unions based on the number of union member statistics sent by commune and ward trade unions to the City Labor Federation.

According to Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Chau, an official of the Hanoi Labor Federation, who directly guides grassroots trade unions to deploy purchases, from January 5, the guiding officials have been able to purchase goods with not too complicated operations. Some officials ordered on January 5, and by January 8, they had received the goods.

On January 7, union members with shopping vouchers were guided on how to buy and all successfully completed. They said that compared to last year's online Trade Union Tet Market, this year the operations are easy to perform, convenient, and goods can be purchased quickly. Items that many union members choose are rice cookers, pans, laundry detergent, laundry detergent, fabric softener... to serve family activities...

In which, immediately after opening the online shopping portal, union members of Thanh Tri Commune Trade Union (Hanoi) participated in selecting and purchasing essential items for the family. In the first morning of opening the online portal alone, 20/93 union members of Thanh Tri Commune Trade Union confirmed successful online purchases. This number continued to increase in the following days. This shows the strong spread of the program as well as the concern and trust of union members in the Tet care activities of the Trade Union organization.

Ms. Ho Thu Trang - Chairwoman of Thanh Tri Commune Trade Union said that many Commune Trade Union members are very excited to receive online shopping vouchers, so when they successfully buy goods, the joy multiplies. Because not only can they buy goods at preferential prices and guaranteed quality, union members also feel the companionship of the Trade Union organization with union members who are still in difficulty. That companionship does not stop at individual union members but also with their families because each product purchased on the Online Trade Union Tet Market can serve the needs of family members.

The online Trade Union Tet Market is deployed on a digital platform, helping union members and workers easily access a variety of goods, ensuring quality and clear origin such as food, foodstuffs, Tet confectionery, daily necessities... In particular, union members receive shopping vouchers worth 500,000 VND supported by the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor.

Along with that, many items continue to be deeply discounted and directly promoted on the system. This is a practical activity to help union members reduce the burden of spending, especially at the end of the year when shopping demand increases.

To help union members shop conveniently, the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor has a clip guiding the operations. Next, a force of trade union officials is tasked with directly guiding union members to buy goods. The method of participation is convenient and transparent, union members only need a few operations to be able to choose goods suitable for the needs of their families, saving travel time, and ensuring safety in shopping.

It can be said that the online Trade Union Tet Market is not only about caring for and bringing benefits to union members, but also gradually helping them get acquainted with the e-commerce environment and digital transformation in life... The total number of union members supported and allocated through the Online Trade Union Tet Market - Spring 2026 program is 200,000 people. Sales time from 9:00 AM on January 5, 2026 to 24:00 AM on March 4, 2026, temporary sales break during the Binh Ngo Lunar New Year holiday 2026 (from 0:00 AM on February 11, 2026 to 24:00 AM on February 22, 2026). The joy of union members will be extended from before, during and after the traditional Tet holiday.

Not only "having Tet" but also "having Tet fun

One of the activities of the Trade Union to bring Tet joy to union members and workers is buses, trains, and flights to take workers home for Tet. The General Confederation supports some southern provinces and cities (Ho Chi Minh City, Dong Nai) to organize buses, trains, and flights to take workers home for Tet to the Central region (Nghe An, Thanh Hoa), the Northern region and assigns them to the Provincial and City Labor Federations, central industry trade unions, economic group trade unions, and general corporation trade unions directly under the General Confederation to organize implementation. For many workers, these buses and trains have brought a new Spring to them and their families in remote hometowns after a year of struggling to find income.

Ms. Truong Thi Hanh - a worker at Matsuo Industries Vietnam Co., Ltd. - is one of tens of thousands of workers who have been able to return to their hometowns for Tet on the Trade Union bus, sharing: "If there is no Trade Union bus, the family will spend a lot of money buying bus tickets outside plus fatigue and lack of traffic safety during Tet. Every time I return to my hometown, I boast to my parents and neighbors that the Trade Union bus takes me back to my hometown for Tet and I feel proud that I am a Trade Union member"...

Every year, the Trade Union organization also implements many activities to take care of Tet for union members and workers. In particular, the activities of the following year are always new and richer than the previous year based on the needs of union members and workers. During the Binh Ngo Lunar New Year, union members and workers not only have Tet but also celebrate Tet with many programs, including the Trade Union Year-end Meal. This is an opportunity for workers, trade union organizations, employers, government leaders, and localities to share and confide in each other, creating an atmosphere of solidarity and understanding, thereby building trust and attachment of union members and workers to the Trade Union organization and businesses. The value of meals in the Trade Union Year-end Meal is at least 50,000 VND and at most 100,000 VND/meal from trade union financial sources and value from funding from businesses, local governments or other socialized sources (if any, without limiting value).

Also an activity that brings joy to union members and workers, grassroots trade unions, based on the situation of union members and workers staying at enterprises and localities, not returning to their hometowns for Tet, to organize warm and joyful activities, bearing the Trade Union's imprint. In places with many union members and workers not returning to their hometowns for Tet, grassroots trade unions organize the "Tet not far from home" program or appropriate forms of activities. This activity once again demonstrates the Trade Union organization's concern for union members and workers who continue to work during the Lunar New Year on projects as well as in boarding houses, on projects. Workers are not only cared for materially but also have a spirit of celebrating Tet when the spring atmosphere returns to all parts of the country.
