The Hanoi Confederation of Labour held a conference in Hanoi on June 18 to review trade union activities in the 2003-2008 period.

According to a report by the Hanoi Confederation of Labour, in the 2003-2008 period, trade union activities and emulation movements among workers have developed dramatically with the aim of honouring skilled workers and their initiatives. The qualifications and skills of state employees in the capital city have been improved remarkably. Academics have played a key role in research, training and education activities. Over the past five years, living and working conditions of labourers have been gradually improved.

 

However, the unemployment rate among workers was 2 percent in the state sector, 21 percent in the non-state sector and 15 percent in the foreign-invested sector. Workers’ qualifications have not met the working requirements while the percentage of trained workers reached only 45 percent.

 

At the conference, Secretary of Hanoi’s Party Committee, Pham Quang Nghi highlighted the contributions of the workers’ movements and trade unions the city’s development. He also emphasised that the trade unions at all levels should step up the campaign “Studying and following the late President Ho Chi Minh’s moral examples” to help workers and state employees improve their qualifications and political consciousness and play a bigger role in protecting labourers’ legal rights.

 

On the occasion, the Hanoi Confederation of Labour received the Ho Chi Minh Order granted by the Party and the State.
