Learn more English to read technical documents to increase productivity
Mr. Vu Duc Thang, from Nam Dinh (old), came to Hanoi to work for Canon Vietnam Co., Ltd. for 4 years. Currently, Mr. Thang lives in the company's dormitory. In addition to working hours, Mr. Thang takes advantage of learning English. When asked about the reason for choosing English to study further, Mr. Thang said: Technical documents in English are richer and more diverse; English is also a language to access artificial intelligence conveniently; besides, English is also a language of communication with experts. Therefore, no matter how busy he is, Mr. Thang still takes advantage of and is determined to learn English.
The example of senior colleagues with many initiatives and creativity in the company shows Mr. Thang the importance of English. Every day, Mr. Thang actively learns from colleagues who have worked in the department for many years to have ideas for improvement in work, contributing to the company's emulation movement, especially the movement "Good Labor - High Productivity - Good Income".
Mr. Thang explained: To work well and increase productivity, you must definitely have knowledge, when you don't have knowledge, there is no other way but to study, the only difference is that each person will choose a way of studying for themselves, a way to improve knowledge suitable for themselves. The goal of studying is to have a better job, thereby increasing their income.
For me, as for many people, the emulation movement organized by the Trade Union and professional departments is the motivation for us to work better, especially the emulation movement "Good Labor - High Productivity - Good Income. Because here it is clear that good labor not only brings benefits to businesses but also to us workers ourselves" - Mr. Thang said.
Working at Canon Vietnam Co., Ltd., but Ms. Nguyen Chu Van Anh has less than 3 months of seniority... Ms. Van Anh passed the university entrance exam but decided to apply to work as a worker at Canon Vietnam Co., Ltd. House in Hoai Duc, every day she goes to work by company shuttle bus at 6:20 am and returns home also by company bus when leaving work at 5:10 pm.
Having a bit of hardship in moving because the house is far away, but according to Ms. Van Anh, Canon Vietnam Co., Ltd. has many preferential treatment policies for employees, so when she learned that the company was recruiting, she applied. Some evenings a week, Ms. Van Anh took the opportunity to learn Chinese from an older sister in her family. The reason for passing the university entrance exam but becoming a worker for Ms. Van Anh can also be called a turning point. Because after passing the university major, she realized the promising future of the commercial Chinese language industry.
There are 2 sisters in the family, Ms. Van Anh's younger brother is only in 9th grade, her parents are workers. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Ms. Van Anh decided to work to earn a living during her time studying Chinese. Perhaps in the future, Ms. Van Anh will be a commercial Chinese interpreter, may also become a tour guide specializing in Chinese, and may also be an interpreter for experts...
But right now, with the decisiveness and bravery of youth, Ms. Van Anh has chosen a more difficult path but it helps her realize her dream. That is the way of life, the way of thinking of many young workers. This positive and determined way of thinking will create good values when they are given conditions to study further, to improve their knowledge according to the path they choose from the turning point of life.
The road will be long but you have to go to get there
Almost young workers who want to learn more knowledge to improve their skills, change jobs, and have higher incomes all share the thought "the road will be long but you have to go to reach it". That road will be less long and more convenient if there is support.
According to the Hanoi Labor Federation, from 2021 to now, 1,150,577 turns of union members and workers have been trained and improved their qualifications and professional skills. Hanoi Trade Union levels have propagated and mobilized workers to self-research and study to improve their educational level, skills, and professional skills associated with the "Improving political and legal understanding" learning program, organizing classes to improve educational level, enhance knowledge, and learn more foreign languages and informatics for union members and workers through continuing education programs right at the agency.
80.5% of workers and civil servants regularly study to improve their educational level, professional skills, political awareness, legal understanding, life skills, informatics, foreign languages... meeting the requirements of work tasks, stabilizing jobs, and improving the quality of life.
The awareness of self-study and self-improvement of knowledge level of many workers has demonstrated the necessity of building and promoting a learning society. Recently, Lao Dong Newspaper and the Vietnam Association for Promoting Education signed a cooperation program to promote the building of a learning society, focusing on developing the "Learning Citizen" and "Learning Unit" models.
Thereby strengthening and promoting coordination and supporting information and propaganda work in education promotion and talent promotion activities, building a learning society to arouse and promote the tradition of studiousness, forming self-study habits, and actively studying for life among workers at enterprises and units.
