(HBO) - Lac Thuy district created jobs for 1,230 labourers in 2019. The proportion of trained labourers was 54 percent, and 23.5 percent of labourers received certificates after training. The results achieved in job generation have contributed to the district’s socio-economic development.
Lac Thuy Garment joint Stock
Company offers many jobs to locals.
At present, the number
of labourers working in the agro-forestry-fishery sector accounts for 38.9
percent. To support vocational training and create more jobs for locals,
especially those in rural areas, the district has flexibly taken vocational
training and job generation measures in accordance with development conditions
of each locality.
Labour export is
considered an important solution to labour structure shifting, effectively
contributing to poverty reduction. Last year, the district had 92 locals sent
to work abroad, with no one working illegally. Many of them have had high and
stable income, and have sent money to their families, thus helping boost
poverty reduction.
In addition, the
district has coordinated with companies based there to train and generate jobs
for labourers. Lac Thuy Garment joint Stock Company under the Duc Giang Garment
Corporation is providing jobs for 630 locals, while Dong Phu Garment Company is
creating jobs for 150 others. With a goal of increasing the proportion of
labourers working in the tourism and services sectors, the district is working
to promote the values of spiritual tourism sites and tourist attractions such
as money printing factory in Chi Ne township, Tien pagoda in Phu Nghia commune,
An Linh pagoda in Yen Bong commune, Doi village communal house, Vai temple and Voi
village communal house in Ba Hang Doi township, and Nieng communal house in
Hung Thi commune. The tourism-services sectors have made important contributions
to job generation in the district.
With its efforts, Lac
Thuy district has many skilled workers. Labourers in rural areas have stable
employment with high income. Job generation efforts have contributed to poverty
reduction in the locality. Last year, the poverty rate was 7.03 percent, down
2.63 percent against that at the beginning of the year./.
