HEPZA deputy head Truong Van Phong said every key production line is fully staffed again. He called the vibe on the factory floors electric, with workers buzzing with energy and already gunning for a big year.
Doan Van Khoa, deputy head of the Employment and Labour Safety Division under the municipal Department of Home Affairs, said many enterprises let migrant workers stretch their Tet vacation by tacking on annual leave. Those with sizable payrolls also handed out targeted incentives, such as Tet “lucky money” envelopes and special first-day-of-the-year bonuses to ensure everyone clocked in on time.
To attract and retain workers after the holiday, numerous companies have offered salary, bonus, and allowance packages, with extra perks for those who showed up right after Tet. They’re also sprucing up workplaces, locking in better insurance and benefits, ramping up job training, and teaming up with local authorities to blast out job ads and hire local workers fast.
