Motivation to promote creative labor
When discussing the initiative and creativity movement among workers and employees in the Capital, Vice President of the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor Ngo Duy Hieu said that material benefits are the most specific and practical motivation to promote initiative and creativity in each worker.
Increase income for yourself and bring benefits to businesses
In the emulation movement for initiatives and creativity of workers and employees (CNVCLĐ) of the Capital, Ms. Nguyen Thi Dung - Deputy Head of Assembly Department No. 2 of Canon Vietnam Co., Ltd. stands out with many initiatives and creativity. Ms. Dung has 5 typical initiatives, always aiming for dual goals: Improving labor efficiency and contributing to the sustainable development of businesses and society, such as improving product flow, innovating training areas and optimizing component supply methods. Her improvement initiatives have a profit value of up to billions of VND and are being implemented in 3 factories Thang Long, Que Vo, Tien Son.
One of them is the solution for automating component supply, combining optimal operation between people and machines. This improvement helps cut 300 indirect workers, saving more than 30 billion VND per year, while improving the flexibility of the production line in the context of a volatile global component market...
Like Ms. Dung, Mr. Ha Xuan Qui Anh - Stanley Vietnam Electricity Co., Ltd. - who was awarded the title "Initiative and Creative in Capital Workers and Employees" in 2025 - is always aware of the need to continue to explore and think to have more initiatives and innovations applied to production.
Mr. Qui Anh shared that as a worker, he always wants to contribute initiatives and innovations to bring benefits to the business. When the business is stable and develops, the lives of workers will be ensured and improved. With this thought, Mr. Qui Anh constantly strives to learn, research and explore to promote initiatives and improvements from production practice. One of the outstanding initiatives that helped him receive the title "Initiative and Creative in Capital Workers and Employees" in 2025 is "Improving the pumping chamber and installing inverters for water pumping systems, cold systems and fresh air fans for Factory No. 2".
The awareness of creativity of Mr. Qui Anh and many workers at Stanley Vietnam Electric Co., Ltd. is nurtured by the concern of the Trade Union organization and businesses through policies that bring benefits to workers. The company builds regulations to reward individuals with outstanding initiatives and improvements. Each improvement topic is rewarded 20,000 VND, initiatives exceeding the target are awarded 50,000 VND. Improvements that win the Third Prize or higher will be awarded a 7-day trip to Japan or Thailand.
Spreading the creative movement
With many practical activities, the creative labor emulation movement has been and is being strongly implemented, especially to implement Workers' Month 2026 with the theme "Vietnamese Workers: Innovation, improving labor productivity".
In Hanoi, trade union levels strive to have 70% of businesses with 100 or more employees organize at least one response activity; about 60,000 union members and workers participate in proposing initiatives, of which at least 30% of initiatives are applied in practice.
Through a series of diverse and practical activities, Workers' Month 2026 is not only an occasion to show gratitude to workers but also creates motivation to promote the emulation movement of labor production, innovation, contributing to the successful implementation of socio-economic development goals of the Capital.
Movements of innovation, digital initiatives and improving labor productivity have also been widely launched. Trade unions at all levels encourage union members to propose initiatives, coordinate with businesses to evaluate, implement and commend typical initiatives, contributing to improving production and business efficiency.
