Strengthen care to affirm the role of trade unions
Also according to information from the Dong Nai Provincial Federation of Labor, in 2025, with the theme "Focusing on developing union members, participating in building a clean and strong Party", the Trade Union organization will promote the work of developing union members, establishing grassroots unions, introducing outstanding union members to the Party for consideration, training and admission to the Party. This is an important task that requires the determination of the entire provincial trade union system.
Therefore, from the beginning of 2025, Dong Nai Provincial Federation of Labor assigned targets to affiliated trade union units to deploy implementation solutions; at the same time, step up surveys of units and enterprises without trade union organizations, especially enterprises with 25 or more employees to propagate the establishment of grassroots trade unions, innovate approaches, and mobilize workers to join trade unions.
Trade unions at all levels promote activities to care for the material and spiritual lives of workers to affirm the role of trade unions in accompanying the lives and work of union members and workers.
In addition, each grassroots trade union unit introduces one outstanding mass for Party organizations to consider admitting, especially trade union cadres, direct production workers, religious workers, and ethnic minority workers.
Currently, Dong Nai province has nearly 3,000 grassroots trade unions with nearly 677,000 union members, the attendance rate is over 95%.
