Hanoi will continue to implement solutions to stimulate the labor market in the future.
Hanoi has been active in finding jobs for workers by building a complete data system on the labor market and implementing social policies, according to Deputy Director of the Municipal Department of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs Nguyen Hong Dan.
"Specifically, the department is strengthening the link between supply and demand, supporting sustainable career changes for workers, and promoting the use of information technology to improve the operational efficiency of the city's job exchange system," Dan said.
The department has also completed a data system on the labor market to improve the efficiency of the connection between labor supply and demand, and reduce the unemployment rate, stressed the deputy director.

Dan noted that the solutions had brought positive results in a difficult labor and employment situation. "In the first six months of 2023, the city has created jobs for more than 113,000 workers, reaching 70% of the assigned plan in 2023," he said.
"Hanoi aims to create new jobs for 162,000 workers this year. To achieve this goal, the city will continue to implement solutions to stimulate the labor market, including reducing the time spent on administrative procedures, providing vocational training and finding new jobs for the unemployed, and implementing policies to provide loans for job creation, labor export, production development, and restoration and development of traditional handicraft industries," Dan added.
According to Vu Quang Thanh, deputy director of the Hanoi Employment Service Center, from now until the end of 2023, the center will organize special thematic job sessions to help businesses recruit, and workers find suitable jobs.
Thanh said that in the first six months of this year, the Hanoi Employment Service Center held 124 job sessions with the participation of more than 3,600 enterprises seeking more than 60,000 people; the number of employees hired at the session was about 8,800.
Last year, Hanoi created jobs for more than 200,000 people, achieving 126% of the annual plans, according to statistics from the Hanoi Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs. The number of jobs created in the first six months of 2023 tends to decrease slightly compared to the same period in 2022 (down 4.5%), which is attributable to the decrease in orders from foreign markets.
