However, reality proves that despite "rolling out the red carpet" with good salaries, bonuses and benefits, many companies still cannot recruit enough necessary workers.
The psychology of “job hopping” after Tet, the desire to find a new source of high income or prefer a more flexible job, is often considered the reason why businesses are seriously short of human resources at the beginning of the year. But even during the year, the recruitment problem in industrial parks is not easy.
Partly, due to the increasingly improved investment attraction policies of many satellite localities, industrial parks have sprung up across provinces and cities, creating a pull for workers to return to their hometowns.
Unskilled workers no longer need to leave their families to go to big cities; they can find jobs in their own locality with equivalent benefits. In addition, the job market is increasingly flexible, creating countless attractive options for young people.
Even some workers who were unemployed after the COVID-19 pandemic found ways to export labor or continue to be "self-employed" instead of returning to factory production lines.
The above reality forces businesses and local authorities to change their thinking and actions. Many businesses in Da Nang have chosen a proactive approach, by “bringing jobs” to find workers.
Instead of waiting for workers to come to job exchanges like before, they have started actively using social networks to recruit or organize mobile job fairs to communes and wards. Thanks to that, candidates do not have to travel far, still access recruitment information and even interview directly in the locality.
In Binh Duong, the Department of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs also directed the Employment Service Center to promote job counseling and referrals both online and in person; at the same time, coordinate with provinces to build the application (app) and web application (web app) "Southern Jobs", helping the inter-regional labor market to be deeply connected.
Obviously, the rapidly changing labor market requires businesses and job placement agencies to think flexibly and creatively, constantly innovating both production processes and human resource recruitment.
“Bringing jobs” to find workers is a positive direction, but more importantly, businesses need to be ready to change their management methods and people care methods to truly attract and retain workers.
