Established in 2023 with only 20 union members and employees, up to now, the Trade Union of JiaZhi Company Limited - Soc Trang Branch has developed strongly, gathering more than 3,000 union members. In the context of many difficulties, the Executive Committee of the Trade Union always strives to find practical solutions to better care for the material and spiritual life of workers and laborers.
One of the outstanding and meaningful activities is the organization of nutritious shift meals for workers. Each meal is worth 18,000 VND, ensuring enough diet and nutritional balance. In particular, in the last month of workers, the Executive Committee of the grassroots grassroots trade union coordinated with the company to organize the program "Trade Union meal" with the support level to raise to 35,000 VND each. This change not only shows deep interest from trade unions and businesses, but also facilitates the quality of meals: The diet doubles, the menu is richer with many delicious and nutritious dishes.
Ms. Do Thi Hoa - Chairwoman of the company's Trade Union - shared: "This is not simply a meal but a message affirming the concern of the union and the company for the health and welfare of workers. We always put food safety and hygiene criteria first.
Ms. Hoa said that the food supplier must have full legal documents and comply with regulations on food hygiene and safety. The union and the company also regularly check directly at the processing facility from tools, processing process to raw material quality to ensure that each meal meets safety, delicious and nutritional standards.
The "Union Meal" program is not only an opportunity for workers and business leaders to sit down and share in a sincere and friendly atmosphere. These moments have helped create a harmonious and friendly working environment, contributing to strengthening stable and sustainable labor relations.
Ms. Nguyen Thu Trang - Chairman of the Trade Union of Soc Trang Urban Construction Joint Stock Company - said: "The quality of Trade Union Meals is increasingly improved. The company's leaders participate in eating with workers, which helps people feel more cared for and attached to the workplace".
Ms. Thach Thanh Thuy, a worker at the solid waste treatment cooperative, also expressed her satisfaction: "The Union meal is very rich, with more desserts. The participation of the leaders together warms our hearts and makes us hope this program will be held more regularly".
Mr. Ly Truong Khoa - Vice Chairman of the Trade Union of Industrial Parks of Soc Trang province - said that during this year's Workers' Month, 30 units implemented the "Union Meal" program. If the daily meal usually ranges from 19,000 - 22,000 VND, the Union meal is increased to 35,000 - 45,000 VND, with a more diverse menu. This improvement not only helps workers receive better physical care but also shows respect and recognition of their contributions to businesses and society.
