In addition, there are also communication activities and health care knowledge consultation to help workers raise awareness about protecting the health of themselves and their families. The form of health examination is organized methodically and thoughtfully; the examination stages as well as cancer screening tests are guaranteed the quality and reliability of medical services. Union members and workers are satisfied with this practical activity of the Trade Union organization, especially when in many units there are good practices in prioritizing subjects for examination.
For example, in Dan Phuong district, the organization of free health check-ups and cancer screening is being implemented with the goal of both improving the health of union members, workers and civil servants, reducing disease, and contributing to improving labor productivity and product quality.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy - President of the Dan Phuong District Labor Federation - said that the health check-up program is aimed at union members and workers at grassroots unions under the District Labor Federation. The total number of workers and civil servants receiving health check-ups during this period is 120 people. In particular, the District Labor Federation prioritizes workers who have been screened for suspected cancer in 2023, 2024; workers who have been working in arduous, toxic, and dangerous jobs for 3 years or more; female workers at enterprises employing a large number of female workers; female teachers, workers at kindergartens...
Or like the Dong Da District Labor Federation, the coordination of organizing health checks, free cancer screening for union members and workers is one of the activities on the occasion of the working month. Here, the District Labor Federation prioritizes examining workers who are directly producing, with little time and conditions for regular health checkups. The funding for health check packs for each union member and workers and employees is 1.5 million. In particular, Dong Da General Hospital supports VND 500,000, the rest is the funding from the district Labor Union.
Prioritizing subjects such as those who have been screened for suspected cancer and prioritizing direct workers shows the close concern of the Trade Union organization for union members and workers to meet their aspirations and wishes.
