(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./.
