Mr. Doat also emphasized: "Occupational safety must shift from passive handling to proactive prevention; from management based on experience to management based on technology and data.
Vice Chairman of Dien Bien Provincial People's Committee said that it is necessary to gradually digitize labor safety management, build databases, apply technology in monitoring and early risk warning, towards a safe, smart, and modern working environment.
Along with that is to make labor safety a mandatory requirement, a criterion for evaluating the level of task completion of agencies, units, and enterprises.
