The labor market in Khanh Hoa is in need of thousands of jobs

On January 25, information from the Khanh Hoa Employment Service Center said that in the fourth quarter of 2025, the labor market recorded a demand for recruitment of more than 1,000 job positions.

The situation of job fluctuations by industry in the province has increased and decreased in some areas. This is a development in line with the labor adjustment activities of enterprises to meet production and business needs at the end of the year.

In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Center surveyed and collected information on labor supply and demand through 846 enterprises and job information channels. The results show that the whole province needs to recruit 9,657 workers, while 6,842 workers have registered to find jobs.

It is forecasted that in the first quarter of 2026, when businesses focus on stably organizing production, implementing plans and implementing orders at the beginning of the year, labor demand in Khanh Hoa province will increase by 5 10% compared to the fourth quarter of 2025.

Recruitment demand is expected to increase in the processing and manufacturing industries (accounting for 32.68%), construction (9%), and the fields of trade - services, tourism and transportation.

Notably, unskilled labor still accounts for a large proportion, about 57.19%. The demand for recruiting skilled workers, technical workers and workers who have received vocational training continues to increase in some key industries and occupations.

Some businesses plan to recruit a large number of workers to compensate for the shortage of human resources after the Lunar New Year holiday, while also serving the plan to expand production and business.

In general, labor supply and demand in the province in the first quarter of 2026 basically meets market demand. However, at some times and in some industries and occupations, the risk of local labor shortages can still occur, especially for skilled workers and technical workers.

Faced with this reality, Khanh Hoa Employment Service Center believes that it is necessary to continue to promote the connection of labor supply and demand, and strengthen coordination with businesses in forecasting human resource needs.

At the same time, effectively implement vocational training solutions associated with actual needs. Support workers to access job information promptly, fully and effectively.

Thereby, contributing to stabilizing and developing the labor market to meet development requirements in the coming period.
