FOREIGN WORKER IN VIET NAM

- The issue of worker’s jobs is always paid special attention to by National Assembly as well as local authority levels. In recent years, The Government has promulgated many policies in order to attract foreign and internal enterprises to do business in Viet nam such as : exempting or reducing land rented budget, supporting infrastracture builds
- In reality, the number of companies operating in Viet Nam is increasing day by day, therefore situation of unemployment has been solved. In some provinces like Dong Nai or Binh Duong, there is a shortage of labourers, especially in garment and leather shoe companies.
- However the number of foreign workers who are working for foreign as well as internal companies is increasing. Most foreign workers come from developing countries as Thailand, Malaysia, India … besides there are experts or highly skilled workers in many aspects.
- Nowadays, The Government is considering this issue. If we don’t control and have any regulations on foreign workers in Viet Nam, Viet Nam people’s job finding chance will be more difficult. Moreover a large sum of money is tranferred to other countries because most foreign workers have higher salary than Vietnamese labourers’.
- On contrary, if we limit the number of foreigner working for companies, Vietnamese labourers will not have more chances to learn experience as well as techniques from foreigners.
- In order to solve this matter, The Government encourages well-known universities as well as vocational training centers in the world to open new branchs in Viet Nam with the purpose of training experts and highly skilled workers./.
