Laborers

The Hanoi's Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs is actively working to increase the number of local labor exchanges and to improve the system of employment data.

According to the Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs, three industry groups are expected to see an increase in labor demand compared to the previous quarter.

In Vietnam, domestic work was officially recognized as a profession in 1994.

Vietnam is expected to send about 125,000 workers on contract to foreign countries this year.

The city has developed the labor market and improved the employment data system to link labor supply and demand and reduce unemployment.

Hanoi has removed obstacles in granting work permits to foreigners to create the most favorable conditions for foreign experts to work in the city.

The number of people who found employment in the first half of 2022 reaches 73.7% of the annual plan, making 20.5% higher than the previous year.

Reforms need to be aligned with the reality of Vietnam’s socio-economic context and build on the success of the progress made over the past decade.

The labor market has started recovering since last December thanks to the capital city's speedy vaccination rollout.
