Mr. Huynh Nhat Huy, General Director of VAFI Co., Ltd. proposed: "In the first 6 months of the year, we encountered many difficulties in recruitment. On the business side, we have checked to see if we are too bad or not?
However, through surveys and inspections, we found that employees often ask for leave with the excuse of returning home or other reasons, and no employee has difficulty with benefits or policies at the company."
Mr. Nguyen Van Phu, Deputy Director of Daiwa Da Nang Co., Ltd. also stated the reality that, compared to previous times, recruiting unskilled workers is currently very difficult.
