Workers have new jobs, thank you Lao Dong Newspaper

Talking to a reporter from Lao Dong Newspaper, Mr. Ho Quoc Nghia (38 years old, residing in Dai Phuoc commune, Dong Nai city) said that so far, after many months of waiting, he has had his social insurance book closed and found a new job at a company in Phuoc An commune, Dong Nai city. Mr. Nghia said: "I am very grateful to Lao Dong Newspaper for helping workers claim their social insurance benefits.

Mr. Nghia shared that he is currently raising 2 children alone (14 years old and 16 years old). Previously, because his social insurance book had not been finalized, Mr. Nghia could not apply for official employment at other businesses, but could only do seasonal jobs to have income to cover living expenses and raise his 2 children to study. Mr. Nghia added that finding a new job helped him have the conditions to rent a stable place to live, take care of his 2 children's studies and overcome the current particularly difficult period.

Mr. Nguyen Dang Thanh Tam (60 years old, residing in Phuoc Thien neighborhood, Nhon Trach ward, Dong Nai city) informed that he has worked at Bach Thanh Ceramic Tile Co., Ltd. for 17 years until he retired. He has been finalized his social insurance book and continues to wait until he reaches retirement age according to regulations.

Previously, authorized representatives of employees of Bach Thanh Ceramic Tile Co., Ltd. (supporting legal procedures for employees) submitted about 165 sets of lawsuits to the People's Court of Region 2 - Dong Nai to claim insurance benefits.

According to Nhon Trach grassroots social insurance, the late payment of social insurance, health insurance, unemployment insurance, and occupational accident insurance has seriously affected the legitimate rights of employees working at Bach Thanh Ceramic Tile Co., Ltd.

Mr. Vu Ngoc Ha - a labor law expert in Dong Nai City - commented: Businesses that have been slow to pay social insurance in the past have caused great difficulties for workers, causing their rights to be "suspended" such as: Not being able to retire, not being able to settle sickness and maternity benefits, and workers' rights are disadvantaged.
