Workers with initiatives that make billions of dong for businesses

NGUYỄN TRƯỜNG (báo lao động) 25/09/2026 13:04 (GMT+7)

Starting from the reality of daily production, many workers and laborers (CNLĐ) have created valuable initiatives, bringing billions of dong in profit to businesses each year.

Initiative from the production line itself

As a worker working at the welding workshop of Hyundai Thanh Cong Vietnam Automobile Manufacturing Joint Stock Company (in Gian Khau Industrial Park, Ninh Binh), Mr. Bui Van Thinh has many initiatives and technical improvements that are highly appreciated and applied to the daily production of the company.

Typical examples include the initiative on "Designing and installing a tire arch pressing support system", which brought the company nearly 180 million VND/year in profit; the initiative "Constructing and installing additional rotating axles for glue pump lines on the HR vehicle line, rearranging glue pump lines on the line structure" and the initiative "Constructing and installing additional operating floors that can lift and lower the main compartment station of the HR vehicle" have saved material costs for the company and reduced the labor force of workers when performing work.

Mr. Thinh shared: "From my personal experience, I have researched and always tried to encourage and actively support colleagues to come up with their ideas for improvement and guide them on how to put those ideas into practice to improve labor productivity and save costs for the company.

Similarly, Mr. Do Quang Nguyen - born in 1993, electromechanical engineer, Head of SMT production department, Vinahitek Ninh Binh Co., Ltd. - has launched the initiative "Manufacturing and designing special lid parts for JIG Router molds" (cutting stage), benefiting businesses by over 3.1 billion VND/year. His initiative was also proposed by the Ninh Binh Provincial Labor Federation to be awarded the Creative Labor Certificate in 2026 by the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor.

Mr. Nguyen shared that the novelty and creativity of this initiative is the detailed design of JIG mold lids, reprogramming cutting lines, ensuring compliance with customer requirements and technical standards. At the same time, it reduces the cost of compensation for discarded goods, increases labor productivity and improves equipment efficiency, shortens production time, improves product quality, and creates prestige with customers.

To create good income

Mr. Nguyen Hai Long - Chairman of Ninh Binh Provincial Labor Federation - said that from June 2026, the emulation movement "Good Labor, High Productivity, Good Income" phase 2026 - 2031 was launched nationwide and implemented in Ninh Binh. The noteworthy point of the new movement is that it does not only stop at requiring workers to work better and be more creative, but also puts labor productivity in a direct relationship with wages, bonuses, benefits and working conditions.

The requirement set for businesses is to build a fair and transparent salary, bonus, and welfare mechanism, associated with productivity, quality, initiative and work efficiency of employees. This is also an issue raised by the Ninh Binh Trade Union organization when implementing emulation movements" - Mr. Long shared.

Also according to Mr. Long, behind an initiative that benefits billions of VND is not just a number on the company's report. It is also the experience accumulated in many years of working on the machine, experiments and the ability to detect problems of direct workers.

When initiatives are recognized commensurately by bonuses, salaries and career development opportunities, benefits also form a cycle. Workers have the motivation to continue to innovate, businesses reduce costs and increase productivity, while workers enjoy better results from the productivity they create.
