Tường Minh (báo lao động) 06/06/2026 14:18 (GMT+7)

According to Mr. Le Trong Nguyen - Chairman of Lien Chieu Ward Trade Union, Da Nang City, the exchange and discussion of Prime Minister Le Minh Hung with delegates attending the 14th Vietnam Trade Union Congress opened up many expectations about policies related to salaries, social insurance, social housing and welfare for workers. In particular, opinions and recommendations all originate from issues very close to the lives of workers and laborers. From the story of living wages, social housing, vocational training, health care to improving labor productivity are all contents that have attracted the attention of a large number of union members in the past time.

Through following the exchange and discussion, I see that many opinions have accurately reflected the thoughts of workers today. Among them, the most concerned issue is still salary, social housing and social security and social insurance policies" - Mr. Nguyen commented. Mr. Le Trong Nguyen assessed that the greatest value of the exchange and discussion of Prime Minister Le Minh Hung with delegates attending the 14th Vietnam Trade Union Congress is the commitments and orientations that the Government has put forward to solve the problems raised from practice. Workers are very excited when their voices are heard directly at an important forum. However, what they expect most is that the policies and commitments will be implemented synchronously and effectively in the coming time.

Workers want more solutions to increase real income, towards a living wage; and at the same time control prices, develop social welfare to reduce spending pressure. Taking better care of workers is also investing in sustainable development, helping them feel secure in sticking with businesses, improving their skills and contributing more to the country. He also hopes that after the 14th Vietnam Trade Union Congress, the coordination between the Government, ministries, branches, localities and Trade Union organizations will become increasingly closer so that the contents that have been discussed and committed at the forum will soon be realized. "Workers always believe in the concern of the Party, State and Government. We hope that the commitments made at the dialogue will soon become specific policies, specific projects and specific results that workers can feel in their daily lives" - Mr. Le Trong Nguyen expressed.
