Businesses and Trade Unions jointly invest in sustainable development

Hoàng Văn Minh |

Extremely hot weather these days across the country will entail many risks to workers' health. Especially those working outdoors, underground or on aircraft parking lots will face the risk of dehydration, physical decline, and exhaustion.

Therefore, the fact that many businesses proactively improve the working environment, increase nutrition, supplement cooling water or invest in cooling systems... shows that awareness of caring for workers is changing in a flexible and practical direction.

In many places, that care comes not only from businesses but also with the very clear companionship of the Trade Union organization in launching joint movements to "cool down", participating in surveying working conditions, proposing solutions to combat heat and coordinating care for meals, health and production environment for workers.

People are still the decisive factor in the quality of production, labor productivity and long-term stability of enterprises. A business cannot just invest in machinery, expand production or chase after orders while neglecting the working conditions of employees.

When workers work in an environment that is too hot, lacks rest or is not adequately supplemented with nutrition, labor efficiency will certainly be affected, productivity will not only decrease but the risk of unsafety will also increase.

Conversely, when workers feel that their health is being cared for, the working environment is being improved, and difficulties in the hot season are being shared promptly, they have more motivation to stick with the business.

Taking care of workers during the hot season, along with ensuring labor safety, organizing sports and cultural activities, giving gifts to support workers in times of difficulty and hardship... although different in form, all aim for a common goal of investing in people, the most important foundation of sustainable business development.

When the health and working conditions of workers are considered part of the development strategy, then every investment in meals, working environment or labor safety today is also an investment in the productivity, stability and sustainable competitiveness of businesses in the future.
