The Chairwoman of the HCMC People's Council asked Thu Duc City to continue to focus on vocational training and worker housing, especially for migrant employees, who account for 50 percent of the city's total workforce.
In addition, Thu Duc City needs a long-term strategy for human resource development to meet society's demands. It should have an effective model to connect information between employees and their employers and coordinate with units to promptly provide labor market information to businesses and workers.
Thu Duc City must raise businesses' awareness of their responsibility to participate in compulsory social insurance, strengthen inspections, supervise, and implement strict measures to handle late payments or evasion of social insurance, she noted.
