(HBO) – Hoa Binh has implemented a plan to receive people returning to the province from Ho Chi Minh City and southern localities since October 11. Nearly 400 people were brought back in the first round of the plan and they continued to implement pandemic prevention and control measures when returning to their localities. Districts and cities are urged to get concentrated quarantine facilities ready and carry out programmes to support the returnees.


Hundreds of labourers returning from other localities have been employed by Lac Son Plastic Co. Ltd located in Vu Ban town after recruitment at the end of August.

Lac Son district has presented gifts for 181 local workers returning from Binh Duong province as soon as they arrived at the district’s concentrated quarantine facility.

According to Bui The Hoa, head of the district’s Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs Division, Lac Son accounted for nearly 50 percent of the total number of people returning from the southern provinces in the first round. The district has made preparations to welcome the returnees while ensuring adherence to the regulations on pandemic prevention and control and giving them gifts as an encouragement.

Quach Thi Kieu, Director of the Department of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs of Hoa Binh province said most migrant workers registering to return to their home villages in Hoa Binh this time are from Binh Duong province who have faced difficulties due to the COVID-19 pandemic and have an urgent need to return to their hometown.

The provincial People’s Committee will make consideration for the following rounds based on actual conditions of the localities.

Regarding social security for returnees, especially workers returning from southern provinces, Kieu said immediate support would solve difficulties in the short term, but ensuring jobs for them is a sustainable and long-term social security solution.

The province is providing support for returning workers in line with the Government package under Resolution No. 68 and proposals on adding Resolution No. 116 to assist workers who contribute to unemployment insurance.

The department has developed a plan to coordinate with districts and cities to review the number of workers who need help, and at the same time expanded job placement programmes and provided counselling support on labour export, Kieu said.

The department has also worked with management boards of industrial zones inside and outside the province to grasp the recruitment demands of enterprises to introduce jobs for labourers. For those who wish to work abroad, the province will give them advice and support, she said./.
