Vietnam’s labour market has experienced steady growth in both size and quality, moving towards modernisation, sustainability, and international integration.

The post-Tet (Lunar New Year) labour market is predicted to witness many significant changes, with opportunities and challenges intertwined for both businesses and employees, according to experts.

In H1/2023, Vietnam's labour market continued to face many difficulties, affecting more than half a million workers, including job loss, reduced working hours, and labour contract suspension.

 Many university graduates seem to feel that a high paying executive job upon graduation is an entitlement and not something to be earned.

Concerning Da Nang’s granting of work permits to 300 Chinese workers, the city on November 23 sent a report on this issue to Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung and the Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs.

 Two ministries are joining hands to create a project on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) that aims to prepare Viet Nam to access an "open" labour market once an ASEAN Community is established.
