(Thanh Loc Industrial Park).
According to the An Giang Provincial Labor Federation, this activity aims to propagate, disseminate, and educate on the law, raise awareness and sense of law compliance, and responsibilities of union members and workers in drug prevention and control; contributing to preventing, stopping, and repelling crime and drug evils among workers, with a focus on workers in industrial parks. In addition, it also improves the reproductive health status of female union members and workers, and at the same time strengthens access and improves the quality of cervical cancer and breast cancer prevention and screening; promotes reproductive health care for female union members and workers.
The conference was divided into 2 organizing classes with about 240 union members and workers of the grassroots trade union of Hwaseung Rach Gia Co., Ltd. attending. Reporters from the Provincial Police and the Provincial Center for Disease Control disseminated many good and in-depth contents related to real life to help workers easily absorb.
Mr. Duong Minh Hieu - a worker at Hwaseung Rach Gia Co., Ltd. - shared: Before, I knew drugs were harmful but did not think they were so serious in many ways.
Thanks to listening to the talk of the police officer, we know more about the types and forms of drugs, the harms affecting life, health, and family... so we can prevent them. The salary of a worker is only enough to support our family, if we fall into drugs, we may cause theft, social evils, and affect our lives. Not only me but also reminding my family and friends around to also prevent and not use them," Mr. Hieu expressed.
Ms. Thai Thi Cam Tien - a worker at Hwaseung Rach Gia Co., Ltd. - said: "I have been vaccinated against HPV to prevent cervical cancer before because when I went for examination and was consulted. However, I only vaccinated according to instructions and did not fully understand the dangers and harms of women's diseases. Today, listening to propaganda and dissemination of knowledge about cervical cancer and breast cancer, I am more aware of improving health protection. Workers do not have much time to learn, but thanks to the Trade Union organizing talks like this, it is both easy to learn and beneficial for themselves.
