Form unions to represent workers' interests

Linh Nguyên |

The Hanoi Construction Trade Union recently announced the Decision to establish the Hanoi Construction Workers Union. This is a new model of grassroots trade union organization to represent the interests of workers.

Along with the decision to establish the Union, the Hanoi Construction Trade Union also granted admission decisions to 50 workers working at the Hiep Thuan Commune Construction Site, Phuc Tho District, Hanoi. The Hanoi Construction Trade Union also appointed the provisional Executive Committee of the Hanoi Construction Workers Union according to the provisions of the Charter of the Vietnam Trade Union.

According to the Charter of Vietnam Trade Union, the grassroots trade union gathers legal freelance workers, in the same industry, profession, by locality or by employer, and is established when there are 5 union members or 5 or more workers who voluntarily apply to join the Vietnam Trade Union. The Hanoi Construction Workers Trade Union is the first grassroots trade union with members who are informal sector workers to be established, under the Hanoi Construction Trade Union, aiming to gather informal sector workers into an organization suitable for the industry, to propagate, disseminate, educate the law, support capital and knowledge to help them increase their income and stabilize their lives.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Thanh - Chairwoman of the Hanoi Construction Trade Union suggested that the Executive Committee of the Hanoi Construction Workers' Union step up propaganda so that union members can grasp the Party's guidelines and policies, the State's laws, and labor and union regulations. In addition, the Executive Committee of the Union needs to continue to pay attention to the material and spiritual life, ensuring jobs and income for union members and workers. The leaders of the Hanoi Construction Trade Union also hope that union members will actively participate in labor emulation movements, increase productivity and work efficiency...

Workers working in the non-structure sector are one of the subjects that the Vietnam Trade Union is focusing on promoting and mobilizing to join the Trade Union and establish a Trade Union. The establishment of a Trade Union in this sector is very important because workers need to be represented, cared for, and have their legitimate and legal rights taken care of. Although it is a new model and the first trade union of the Industry Trade Union, the propaganda and mobilization of workers is carried out systematically and effectively.

Previously, the Hanoi Technology Auto Drivers Union has promoted its representative role in caring for and protecting the legal and legitimate rights and interests of union members and workers. Many activities such as providing support to union members whose vehicles were burned, promoting traffic culture, coordinating support for making health insurance cards and social insurance books, etc. have directly contributed to helping union members connect and have more trust in the Trade Union organization.
