News from the Da Nang City Labor Federation on August 23 said: after implementing the work of arranging and perfecting the apparatus, the City Labor Federation has stepped up propaganda and mobilization work to develop union members and establish grassroots unions.
From the beginning of July 2025 to now, the Da Nang City Labor Federation has newly established 16 grassroots unions, admitting 658 new union members.
According to Ms. Phan Thi Thuy Linh - Member of the Presidium of the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor, Member of the City Party Committee, Vice Chairman of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Da Nang City, President of the Da Nang City Labor Federation - after merging with Quang Nam, the City Labor Federation set a goal of developing 51,000 new union members.
Currently, the source for developing grassroots trade unions in Da Nang has 504 enterprises with over 20 employees, 929 enterprises with 10 - 19 employees and more than 2,000 enterprises with less than 10 employees participating in social insurance. The source for developing union members is about 208,000 workers.
