Strong trust in the trade union organization
According to statistics from the Dak Lak Provincial Federation of Labor (DOLF), after merging with Phu Yen province, the whole province currently has 676 grassroots unions with 57,914 union members. Currently, the Provincial Federation of Labor is perfecting and rearranging the organizational apparatus.
Following the instructions of the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor, the province plans to establish 11 commune and ward trade unions. In the immediate future, three units have been announced to be established, including: Tan An Ward Trade Union, Buon Ma Thuot Ward and Hoa Phu Commune - where Hoa Phu Industrial Park and Tan An Industrial Cluster are located, with more than 7,000 workers working.
Ms. Ksor H' Vo - a worker at Tan An Industrial Cluster - said that for nearly 3 years, she has regularly received support from the grassroots union and the Buon Ma Thuot City Labor Federation (formerly), especially during holidays, Tet and Workers' Month.
In addition, the female worker also received health care and free medicine, contributing to significantly improving her life.
She expressed her belief that after the union apparatus is strengthened, disadvantaged workers will continue to receive practical attention and support to stabilize their lives and work with peace of mind.
Mr. Nguyen Van Quyen - Chairman of the Trade Union of KVD Vina Co., Ltd. - said that the unit has about 1,400 workers, most of whom are ethnic minorities.
Since the beginning of 2025, the union has implemented many activities to care for union members, especially during the Lunar New Year and Workers' Month. He hopes that after the restructuring of the apparatus, the trade union organization will continue to innovate, enhance its role as a representative and protect the rights of workers in the new period.
Meeting requirements in the new period
Sharing about the initial steps, Mr. Hoang Anh Tuan - Chairman of the Hoa Phu Commune Trade Union - said that immediately after its establishment, the union quickly developed operating regulations, work plans and assigned specific tasks to each cadre.
In the immediate future, the trade union will focus on closely following the grassroots, reviewing and making a list of workers who are ethnic minorities with difficult circumstances working in Hoa Phu Industrial Park. At the same time, continue to innovate methods of operation, improve the quality of staff to effectively implement welfare programs and care for workers.
Mr. Le Van Thanh - Chairman of the Dak Lak Provincial Federation of Labor - emphasized that the current key task is to innovate activities and improve the quality of trade union officials. The Standing Committee of the Provincial Federation of Labor will closely monitor the situation at commune, ward and grassroots trade unions, promptly remove difficulties to protect the legitimate rights and interests of union members and workers.
