In which, there is a grassroots administrative career union.
Here, 100% of grassroots trade union officials work part-time. Therefore, to ensure that the trade union's financial work is carried out in accordance with regulations and fully implemented, the Hanoi Industrial and Export Processing Zones Trade Union has focused highly and proposed many solutions for implementation. As a result, the number of settlement reports of grassroots trade unions increased from 33% in 2022 to 70% in 2023; in the first 9 months of 2024, the amount of funds and union fees paid to the City Labor Federation was 41.2 billion VND/68 billion VND (reaching 60%).
Discussing the experience to achieve the above results, Mr. Nguyen Dinh Thang - Chairman of the Hanoi Industrial and Export Processing Zones Trade Union - said that the trade unions at the direct superior level are mostly the same, the number of full-time union officials is small, so all activities of the agency are mobilized by accountants. However, only accountants have the expertise in financial work. Therefore, the Hanoi Industrial and Export Processing Zones Trade Union organizes training and guidance on financial work for the grassroots union officials, training each industrial zone, even training each grassroots union with a large number of union members and workers in the spirit of hand-holding. In addition, training for the team of full-time officials of the Hanoi Industrial and Export Processing Zones Trade Union with the motto of being good at one thing, proficient in many things.
From the characteristics and actual situation that 100% of grassroots trade union officials work part-time, the Hanoi Industrial and Export Processing Zones Trade Union clearly identifies itself as a servant - a higher-level trade union serving a lower-level trade union. From there, the Hanoi Industrial and Export Processing Zones Trade Union assigns officials to be in charge of each industrial park. These officials regularly urge, remind, and guide the grassroots trade unions. Through guidance, if any unit is found to be capable, it will focus on guiding the grassroots trade unions to make their own financial statements, and the Hanoi Industrial and Export Processing Zones Trade Union will inspect and supervise.
For the remaining grassroots unions, the Hanoi Industrial and Export Processing Zones Trade Union and the grassroots unions directly prepare the final settlement report. This activity is done after hours or on weekdays. In order for each union official of the Hanoi Industrial and Export Processing Zones Trade Union to promote their responsibilities, the Hanoi Industrial and Export Processing Zones Trade Union includes the results of guiding grassroots unions to build estimates and final settlement reports as criteria for evaluating the annual scoring results of the officials.
