The northern province of Hoa Binh strives to send 1,000 workers abroad under contracts as part of its effort to realise the target on job generation and sustainable poverty reduction.


 The February 3 Hoa Binh Import-Export joint Stock Company organises a ceremony for workers in Da Bac district to work in Taiwan (China) and Japan.

 

Since the beginning of this year, the February 3 Hoa Binh Import-Export joint Stock Company has sent nearly 80 workers to work in the markets of Taiwan (China) and Japan.

Nguyen Van Thin, head of the Bureau of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs of Luong Son district, said that the programme of sending workers to work abroad under contracts has brought high economic and social efficiency.

In the district, some enterprises have been licensed to send labourers to work abroad under contracts. They actively introduced information and consultancy, and jobs to locals in communes.

He said the district also promotes communication activities to help local people understand the benefits and importance of job creation and working abroad in sustainable poverty reduction.

In the first nine months of this year, the district had 114 people go to work overseas, exceeding the target set for 2024.

By the end of September, the whole province had sent 660 workers abroad, mainly Japan, Taiwan (China), the Republic of Korea, and Hungary.

Localities seeing the largest number of guest workers are Luong Son, Da Bac, and Lac Son district and Hoa Binh City.

The province successfully coordinated with agencies and companies to organise job fairs that attracted up to 1,000 workers. Local authorities also coordinated to announce and select workers to work in the RoK under the Employment Permit System (EPS) programme; organised the selection of female interns for technical internships in Japan; announced the recruitment of candidates to study and work in the nursing industry. In addition, the province received and supported 29 enterprises that recruit workers to work abroad under contracts.

Bui Manh Cuong, Deputy Director of the province’s Department of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs said that workers working abroad under contracts have good benefits and high incomes.

In the coming time, localities will continue to promote communications on job creation, working abroad, and policies to support those who wish to work abroad.

Currently, the province continues to implement the Government's decrees and ministries’ circulars on supports for workers who work abroad under contracts. In addition, the Provincial People's Council issued Resolution No. 216/2022/NQ-HDND, dated December 9, 2022, stipulating the province’s policy that help the workers access loans in the 2023-2026 period.
