Protect workers' health

​In order to proactively implement epidemic prevention measures to ensure production, Settsu Carton Vietnam Co., Ltd. (Long Thanh District) has also organized the 4th dose of Covid-19 vaccine for all employees of the company in order to increase the number of employees, and increase immunity against the risk of re-emergence of the disease. Ms. Le Thi Mai, working at the company, said that in order to avoid the risk of being seriously ill due to the disease in the context of the appearance of new strains, as soon as the company announced the 4th dose vaccination, she registered for the vaccination to protect herself. “After two years of facing many difficulties due to the epidemic, we are aware that prevention is better than cure. Therefore, I signed up to participate in vaccination to ensure my health. After I finished the 4th dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, I felt even more secure when I went to the company to work, "- Ms. Mai added.

ATAD Steel Structure Joint Stock Company (Long Khanh City) has just coordinated with the City Health Center to organize the 3rd and 4th vaccination against Covid-19 for nearly 300 employees at the company. Enterprises have arranged a spacious and airy injection site, creating favorable conditions for employees to get injections on time and not have to wait long.

Mr. Le Thanh Tung, Vice Chairman of the Labor Confederation of Long Khanh City said that in recent months, the Labor Union and the City Health Center have coordinated with grass-roots trade unions at enterprises to organize propaganda about vaccination. Employees vaccinated against Covid-19 at the right dose and on schedule. Accordingly, employees have raised their awareness and voluntarily registered to participate in vaccination at enterprises. Up to now, the whole city has had 21,000 workers vaccinated against 3rd and 4th doses. The rest are pregnant or ill, so they have not been vaccinated in this phase. The organization of vaccination against Covid-19 for employees at enterprises is very necessary and suitable with the current situation, in order to increase the ability to prevent Covid-19 infection among workers; at the same time, helping them feel secure in their production work.

In addition to the Covid-19 epidemic, which is currently the peak of dengue epidemic, the number of cases tends to increase in the province. Therefore, many businesses have actively distributed leaflets and posted notices about the dengue epidemic situation for employees to understand, proactively prevent and protect the health of themselves and their families at their residences and boarding houses.

Raise awareness of epidemic prevention for the economic production

According to many trade union officials at the grassroots level, many workers, after being injected with the Covid-19 vaccine or having been infected with Covid-19 before, begin to be subjective and neglect to apply preventive measures, especially they are not actively participating in the vaccination of the 3rd and 4th shots. Therefore, the risk of disease transmission is very high, especially difficult to ensure health to work. Many workers have been propagated by businesses, trade unions and dormitory owners to vaccinate against the epidemic, but do not participate or find excuses to avoid it.

Mr. Le Nhat Truong, Chairman of the grassroots trade union of Pousung Vietnam Co., Ltd., Trang Bom District said that recently, the company has organized the 4th dose of Covid-19 vaccine for more than 6,000 workers working at the company. The union highly welcomes the sense of participation of workers and strictly follows the rules in the injection process. The fact that enterprises create conditions for employees to vaccinate not only protects workers' health but also ensures the production situation of enterprises, avoids "broken" production chains like the epidemic in previous years, and workers feel more secure when coming to work in the company.

Attending the preliminary conference of the first 6 months of 2022 at the immediate superior trade union units at the grassroots level recently, Ms. Nguyen Thi Nhu Y, Chairperson of the Provincial Confederation of Labor emphasized that the current situation of the Covid-19 epidemic is basically controlled nationwide, but recorded the emergence of new strains in the community. Besides, dengue epidemic is increasing sharply throughout the country and Dong Nai is no exception. In order to actively prevent and control the epidemic, resolutely not to let the epidemic overlap, Trade Unions at all levels should continue to propagate, mobilize and guide officials, union members and employees to strictly implement effective epidemic prevention and control solutions in order to ensure the health, production stability and socio-economic development of the province.

Mr. Nguyen Van Thanh, the owner of a boarding house in Thanh Phu Commune, Vinh Cuu District said that his boarding house currently has over 100 workers staying in and most of them are young workers. When he learned that the Covid-19 and dengue epidemics in the province were on the rise, he had a meeting with workers to clean the hostel. At the same time, mobilize workers to register for vaccination at commune health stations or mobile sites organized by communes and districts. Up to now, 90% of the workers at the hostel have had the 4th injection. For dengue epidemic, the innkeepers have distributed leaflets to each room so that the workers can access the information, clean the room well to limit the mosquitoes and larvae develop, causing dengue epidemics.
