(HBO) - Labor export is a key task in socio-economic development, making a significant contribution to the sustainable poverty reduction of the province. In recent years, with the diversification of the channels of introduction and job creation, the effective and strict management of sending laborers to work abroad and foreign employees working in the province, labor export has been promoted. On average, there are 300-400 people working in the foreign labor market in the province each year. However, due to the impact of the Covid-19 epidemics, this work has faced a lot of difficulties since 2019. According to the plan of 2021, the new jobs for 16,000 workers is created in the whole province, trying to achieve the export target of 320 workers.


At the end of April 2021, the province organized a program to see off the employees to work in the foreign markets.

Since March 2021, the Center for the Provincial Employment Service has implemented many programs to promote labor export. Specifically, they have been strengthening connections, selecting reputable enterprises to organize recruiting and training programs for domestic and foreign employees. Together with the enterprises, the center has actively propagated and advised on the policies for the labor export to the localities, especially the remote areas and the areas with extremely difficult circumstances. Most recently, the center has signed a contract with Tin Phat International Human Resources Cooperation Group – the enterprise has been licensed by the Ministry of Labour, War Invalids and Social Affairs, and the Department of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs licensed to operate in the province. Accordingly, the two sides will cooperate on mobile job exchanges in the districts and the city, propagate, recruit and train workers, and try to bring more provincial laborers to work in Japan, Singapore, Korea, Taiwan...

Mr. Vu Manh Hung, the Director of the Center for the Provincial Employment Service says: For more than 1 year, dozens of the provincial laborers have been exported to work in Korea, Japan, Taiwan... through the channel of the enterprises. Dủing the working process in the foreign markets, enterprises always pay attention to and accompany with the labourers. After the expiration of the term, if the employee wants to continue working there, the enterprises will support the visa application procedure, on the other hand, they will ensure free job opportunities when returning home.

Currently, the source of the capital for labor export is a big obstacle because the majority of laborers wishing to work abroad do not have enough financial resources or the valuable assets to mortgage for bank loans. At the end of May, the Center for the Provincial Employment Service and the provincial branch of Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (Agribank) signed a cooperation agreement with the aim of enhancing connectivity, promoting activities to support business expansion and development, becoming a comprehensive, sustainable and long-term partner. The program aims to create favorable conditions for the employees to access the preferential capital from 80-100% of the amount paid by the employees to work abroad. Mr. Nguyen Huu Thang, the Deputy Director of the Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development of the province, says: Agribank is committed to creating favorable conditions for the units that are the partners of the Center for the Provincial Employment Service in the field of using services for employees borrowing capital for the labor export and other borrowers according to current regulations of Agribank. At the same time, it is hoped that after the Covid-19 epidemic is more stable, the two sides will have a specific work plan to speed up the coordination program.

In order to increase incomes and reduce poverty sustainably, labor export is an effective channel for job creation. 5 typical benefits that employees receive when working abroad are high and stable income; improving and raising foreign language skills; approaching a modern working environment with advanced machinery, equipment and technology, forming thinking, professional style, discipline and responsibility; the working contract will be extended, the income will increase if the employees meet the requirements, work professionally with high quality; especially many job opportunities for laborers will opne after returning home. According to Mr. Doi Van Chinh, the Deputy Director of the Department of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs, since the beginning of the year 12 workers have been exported to other countries to work at factories producing electronic components. nursing in hospital... through channels of enterprises. Due to the development of Covid-19 epidemics, some programs promoting the labor export will have to be postponed. They are the dialogue program with the enterprises participating in the province's labor export promotion and organizing job exchange floors in the districts and the city. The province also continues mobilizing the participation of all levels of the Party committees, authorities, branches and mass organizations such as youth, women’s, and farmers’ joining hands to pay attention, coordinate and acompany to continue removing the obstacles and difficulties in the labor export.
