Right from the beginning of the year, the Provincial Federation of Labor has issued a plan, directed a survey, allocated specific targets and organized a peak period of "Developing union members, establishing grassroots unions" during Workers' Month. Thanks to the strong and close direction, in the first 8 months of 2025, the whole province has established 14 new grassroots unions with 1,948 union members, including 1 informal grassroots union with 125 union members; at the same time, 11,832 new union members were admitted to units that already have union organizations.
At the same time, trade unions at all levels also focus on discovering and training outstanding union members, introducing a source of union cadres for the Party to consider admitting. As a result, in the first 8 months of the year, 1,468 groups introduced and admitted 1,175 union members to the Party. This is an important step forward in building a successor force, affirming that the Trade Union organization is a place to nurture and train positive factors.
