About 40% of union members and workers of the company are in flooded areas. The union regularly informs about the situation of storms, visits union members and proactively proposes that businesses support affected workers" - Ms. Ung Thi Li La added.
Mr. Dao Xuan Truong, a member of the grassroots union, expressed: "We are very grateful to the union organization for its attention and timely support in difficult times. The brothers will strive to stabilize their lives, work enthusiastically, and contribute to the development of the company.
According to the Binh Thuan Ward Union, the whole ward has 106 union members and workers of 6 grassroots unions who suffered property damage during the flood. The ward union has compiled a list and requested the Provincial Labor Federation to soon allocate support sources.
This timely support activity demonstrates the role of the trade union organization in accompanying and caring for workers, helping them stabilize their lives after natural disasters and feel secure in production.
