The space needs to be arranged neatly, aesthetically, and easily accessible; the content is diverse, meeting the cultural and spiritual needs of workers” - Ms. Nguyet shared.

Periodically every year, the company's Trade Union will evaluate based on criteria to adjust and supplement activities appropriately, remove ineffective content, in order to meet the standards requested by the Provincial Labor Federation to recognize standard spaces" - Ms. Nguyet said.
