He urged the Vietnam Social Insurance and trade unions at all levels and local authorities to keep a close watch on businesses’ payment for social insurance for their workers.
On food safety, PM Nguyen Xuan Phuc said enterprises must publicise menus, prices and origins of food they serve their employees and local party committees and administration must bear responsibility for watching the issue.
Appreciating labourers’ desire to improve their vocational and foreign language skills in service of the country’s economic integration, he requested all-level trade unions and employers to create optimal conditions for those who wish to do so.
