Social network application to communicate laws and reproductive health to workers
Thanh Hoa - Applying social networks and digital platforms helps Thanh Hoa Trade Union effectively communicate laws, reproductive health, and raise awareness for workers.
On January 19, the Thanh Hoa Provincial Federation of Labor announced that Annora Vietnam Shoes Co., Ltd. is one of the pioneers in applying social networks, digital platforms in communicating legal policies and reproductive health for workers, contributing to improving the quality of human resources at enterprises.
In recent years, along with socio-economic development, the number of workers in Thanh Hoa, especially female workers in the garment and footwear industries, has been constantly increasing. Most workers under 35 years old, coming from rural areas, have many difficulties in living conditions, limited legal knowledge as well as reproductive health care and protection skills.
At Annora Vietnam Shoes Co., Ltd. - a company with a large number of workers in the province with more than 18,000 female workers, accounting for about 88% of the total number of workers, the grassroots trade union has proactively innovated propaganda methods. Zalo groups and fanpages on Facebook were established to share information about labor laws, regimes, policies and reproductive health knowledge.
The company's trade union coordinated with the health department to create short videos and electronic documents for propaganda; organize live screenings at the dining room during lunch break; deploy online consultation and online seminars for workers to easily access information.
In addition, the company's Trade Union established the " Pregnant women and raising young children" Club, organizing many thematic activities on preventing and combating domestic violence and sexual harassment at the workplace; organizing free reproductive health check-ups and consultations for thousands of female workers. The work of inspecting and supervising the implementation of regimes and policies for female workers has also been strengthened.
According to the Thanh Hoa Provincial Labor Federation, in the context of workers increasingly using social networks and digital platforms, innovating communication work towards digitalization is an effective solution, contributing to bringing legal policies and health care knowledge closer to workers, meeting the sustainable development requirements of businesses and localities.
