Provincial Labor Union has actively made law dissemination among non-State businesses, especially foreign invested ones, contributing to helping them reach sustainable development and raising laborers’ legal knowledge.
At a typical unit
With more than 5,400 laborers, the wholly foreign-invested Pungkook Saigon II Company at Di An town-based Song Than Industrial Park, specialized in manufacturing various bags and leather products for export, is a typical unit in making law dissemination among laborers, helping raise their awareness of rights-interests and responsibilities. This has made them actively take part in the movements of technical innovation, bringing the annual benefit of billions of dong to the company.
