The Labor Code in 2019 includes 17 chapters, 220 articles, representing 10 major new points for employees, and 6 major new points for the employer. Specifically, the new points are related to: labor contract, working time, rest time; In addition, in case of resignation, they still receive salary, elderly employees are allowed to sign fixed-term contracts many times and the employees are rewarded not only in cash but also in kind ...

Helping employees to master knowledge on law

In the area with the quantity of labor higher than 29,000 people, the labor force of Long Khanh city always focuses on educating and propagating the labor law for union members and employees working in units and enterprises. In particular, the city Labor Confederation organized many training sessions on the 2019 Labor Code at the premises and the inns with a large concentration of workers in the last months of the year.

Attending the training session recently held by the Labor Federation of Long Khanh City, worker Nguyen Ngoc Loan, working at Fullway Co., Ltd. (Long Khanh City) said that the knowledge about the 2019 Labor Code was briefly provided by The Trade Union, which was easy-to-understand with detailed information to help employees quickly grasp their interests while working at the enterprise. In general, she is most satisfied with the regulations on salary, bonus, benefits for employees working in hazardous and dangerous departments, pregnant female employees and increasing holidays ...

As for worker Tran Thi Thu Ha, working at United Jumbo Co., Ltd., the training session helped her update many useful legal knowledge as well as policies and regulations directly related to her interests. For example: The employee has the right to unilaterally terminate the labor contract without any reason; The employer is not allowed to force an employee to use his/her salary to buy goods or services from him/her/other unit; Enterprises must notify the salary payroll paid to employees at each payment; new regulations on interest rates of compensation calculation due to late payment of wages to employees ... These are very practical regulations, avoiding the situation of enterprises violate the law and affect the interests of employees.

Vice Chairman of Labor Federation of Long Khanh city, Mr. Le Thanh Tung said that during the training sessions for employees at the accommodation or businesses, Trade Union officers always ask employees questions related to policies. However, the reality shows that, the understanding of employees on issues related to the labor law is still limited, especially in the manufacturing and processing enterprises that attract a large number of unskilled and qualified workers. Employees' awareness of labor laws is low. Therefore, there are policies and benefits of employees closely regulated by the law such as social insurance, unemployment insurance, maternity leave ... but the employee has not paid much attention.

According to Mr. Tung, in many cases, they did not hesitate to tellwhen being asked about the payment of social insurance at enterprises, , because they did not determine to have a long-term commitment to enterprises, so they did not pay attention to whether the enterprises paid insurance or not. When being questioned by the rapporteur on the maternity leave regime for female employees under the Labor Code, many workers who attended the training sessions did not give the correct answer. Therefore, close and practical training sessions will help employees improve their basic knowledge in order to protect their interests in the future.

Chairman of Dinh Quan District Labor Federation, Mr. Nguyen Chanh Bon said that the main concern of employees at the new point of the Labor Code is that in addition to practical policies, the issue of increasing retirement age affects direct production workers. it makes them wonder and worry. Therefore, during the training process, many workers asked deeply about this issue and received detailed answers from Trade Union officials, helping them to understand the problem. "I think, in propaganda, Trade Union officials and reporters should pay attention to the feedback of employees and business owners to explain, analyze and share in detail" - Mr. Bon shared.

Propaganda in many forms

Recently, in addition to organizing direct training, the Trade Union levels have propagated through many channels such as: distributing handbooks, leaflets, on the website of the provincial and district Labor Confederation and the mass media. At the same time, integrate the propaganda in an attractive, clear, concise, easy to understand, easy to remember way and attract employees’ participation.

In enterprises with a high concentration of employees, business owners increasingly create conditions for time and place for Trade Union officials to organize training sessions for employees. However, representatives of enterprises said that in order for the training sessions to be effective, Trade Union organizations need to pay more attention to the reality of each enterprise in order to have easy-to-understand forms of information transmission, helping employees to receive quickly. . By doing so, the dissemination of knowledge of the labor law will really promote efficiency, improve employees' awareness, contribute to building a friendly working environment and a harmonious and progressive relationship between the business owners and workers.

According to many grassroots Trade Union officials, it is very important and timely to strengthen training of the Labor Code before it takes effect. When the employeesunderstand the law, the application of the enterprise will not encounter difficulties and the employees will work according to the regulations, together with the enterprise to build a stable labor relationship.

Labor Code Chairman H.Vinh Cuu Nguyen Cong Ky said that so far, the district Labor Code has organized 5 training courses on the Labor Code in 2019 for employees and Trade Union officials at units and enterprises in the district. At this point, the district labor force will continue to promote the propaganda for the employees, creating conditions for employees to update information on the labor law, especially the newly revised contents, promulgating guidelines for the implementation of the Labor Code. help them grasp necessary information about their rights and obligations, comply with the provisions of the law, prevent labor disputes and strikes.

According to the provincial Labor Confederation, over the past time, the provincial Labor Confederation has directed the Trade Union levels to actively propagate and disseminate the labor law to employees in enterprises with practical, focus and suitable contentfor each object. Propaganda forms are increasingly plentiful, diversified and effective, contributing to a positive change in the employers and employees’ attitudetoward law compliance.

However, in order for the implementation assurance of the Labor Code on the legitimate rights and interests of employees, it is important to propagate each regulation of the Labor Code to the grassroots. Through different communication channels, Trade Union levels will deploy to each union, union members and employees. Thereby, ensuring the uniform, synchronous and effective implementation of the Labor Code, raising awareness and responsibility of enterprises and employees.
