Many policies to attract workers
In early 2025, some businesses will recruit a large number of workers from 500 to 2,000 workers. Due to not meeting the quantity, businesses have extended the recruitment time. Through May 2025, this group of enterprises will continue to recruit workers.
The Trade Union of Kim Xuong Vietnam Shoes Co., Ltd. (Dai Dang 2 Street, Dai Dang Industrial Park, Phu Tan Ward, Thu Dau Mot City, Binh Duong Province) said that in early 2025, the enterprise had a need to recruit nearly 1,000 workers; up to now, the enterprise still receives interview documents to recruit sewing workers.
MoToMotion Vietnam Co., Ltd. (producing sofas and furniture in My Phuoc 3 industrial park) continues to hang a notice board recruiting a large number of workers. This enterprise offers many policies to attract workers, especially with better salaries than other enterprises in Binh Duong: The minimum monthly income for employees is from 10 million VND; good workers can achieve an income of 15-20 million VND, or 25 million VND per month.
Yazaki EDS Vietnam Co., Ltd. (specializing in the production of automobile electrical wires) hangs a labor recruitment board to serve the production needs at 2 factories in Binh Duong. When officially working at the company, employees are entitled to a basic salary higher than the prescribed level. Workers also have allowances for accommodation, travel, operating allowances, allowances for diligence, support for night shifts...
Notably, according to records, many enterprises in Binh Duong are currently in need of recruiting trained and multi-skilled workers. In addition to specialized skills, most businesses require candidates to know foreign languages.
Strengthening the connection between labor supply and demand
According to Mr. Pham Van Tuyen - Deputy Director of the Department of Home Affairs of Binh Duong province, in the first quarter of 2025, the demand for labor recruitment of enterprises in the province will be over 20,000 workers. Entering the second quarter of 2025, the labor market of Binh Duong province is forecast to continue to maintain a positive recovery trend. The demand for technical workers, mechanical - electrical - refrigeration workers, welders, drivers and logistics staff is expected to increase significantly to meet export orders and domestic consumption demand to recover.
At the same time, the group of high-quality workers (with a university degree or higher) will continue to be selected more strictly, mainly in the fields of information technology, finance - banking, production engineers and supply chain management.
According to records, the efficiency of connecting labor supply and demand has not been really as expected. The local labor surplus in some traditional industry groups such as administration, offices, accounting - finance still exists. Meanwhile, many businesses are having difficulty recruiting technical workers and skilled workers, leading to imbalances in human resource allocation, some businesses are not recruiting enough workers, and have to extend the recruitment period continuously throughout the year.
The main reason is the difference between workers' skills and business requirements.
To connect labor supply and demand, the Binh Duong Provincial Employment Service Center said that it will continue to organize consulting activities, job introduction, and organize periodic and mobile trading sessions. The unit will proactively innovate its methods of operation, strongly apply digital platforms and big data to analyze and connect supply and demand in real time. At the same time, improve the quality of vocational training, closely connect businesses - schools - the state in building practical skills training programs, close to practical requirements, especially in processing industries, mechanics, automation...
