Currently, the Trade Union Board of Industrial Parks of Lao Cai province is managing 91 grassroots trade unions, with 14,560 workers, of which 14,028 trade union members and female union members account for more than half. The core workforce has stable jobs, and their skills have gradually improved, meeting the production and business requirements of businesses.
In 2025, despite being affected by increased raw material prices and decreased orders, with the direction of the Lao Cai Provincial Labor Federation and the efforts of trade union levels, trade union activities in industrial parks still achieved many positive results.
The focus is on effectively performing the function of representing, caring for, and protecting the legitimate and lawful rights and interests of union members and workers.
The "Tet Sum Vay" and Trade Union Tet Market 2025 programs are implemented synchronously and practically. The Trade Union Boards of Industrial Parks organized "Tet Sum Vay - Spring of Gratitude to the Party" for 120 union members in difficult circumstances in the Southern Industrial Park of the province; coordinated to visit businesses, presented 1,573 gifts from the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor and the Provincial Labor Federation; and directly presented 35 gifts to union members in special circumstances.
In addition, social security work continues to be concerned. During the year, the Trade Union Board of Industrial Parks proposed to support the construction of 4 "Trade Union Homes" for union members in difficult circumstances with a total budget of 180 million VND.
Before the damage caused by storm No. 10, the trade union reviewed and statistically recorded that 3 businesses and 1,783 union members and workers were affected. On that basis, the Provincial Labor Federation decided to support 968 union members, at a level of 1 million VND/person, with a total budget of 968 million VND, contributing to helping workers soon stabilize their lives.
Speaking to direct the conference, Ms. Nguyen Thi Bich Nhiem - Chairwoman of Lao Cai Provincial Labor Federation highly appreciated the efforts of the Trade Union Board of Industrial Parks of the province and grassroots trade unions in the context of many difficulties.
In 2026, trade union levels need to continue to innovate the content and methods of operation, focus on caring for and protecting the legitimate and lawful rights and interests of union members and workers; proactively grasp labor relations, strengthen dialogue and collective negotiation, especially during the 2026 Lunar New Year," Ms. Nhiem emphasized.
The Chairman of Lao Cai Provincial Labor Federation also requested grassroots trade unions to promote the development of union members, establish trade unions at enterprises; review, negotiate, and re-sign expired collective labor agreements in a direction that is more beneficial to workers; pay attention to improving the quality of trade union officials, meeting the requirements in the new situation.
On this occasion, the Trade Union Board of Industrial Parks of Lao Cai province commended and rewarded 2 collectives and 27 individuals with outstanding achievements in the worker, civil servant and labor movement and trade union activities in 2025.
