Hanoi has implemented solutions to support and create jobs for workers in the city amid challenging labour market conditions.
Accordingly, Hanoi authorities have entrusted the Vietnam Bank for Social Policies (VBSP)’s chapter in Hanoi to provide loans to individuals and welfare beneficiaries, with a total amount of VND1.8 trillion, creating jobs for 34,600 labourers.
The Hanoi Department of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs said that over 3,000 workers have been sent to Japan, Taiwan (China), and the Republic of Korea to work under fixed-term labour contracts in nine months.
During the period, the Hanoi Employment Service Centre (HESC) organized 191 job fairs, attracting the participation of 5,500 enterprises and more than 13,500 people were recruited.
Most notably, an online job fair connecting eight provinces and cities, namely Hanoi, Ninh Binh, Bac Giang, Bac Ninh, Thai Nguyen, Hai Phong, Thai Binh, and Ha Nam, which took place on September 28, attracted 121 units and businesses, offering a total of 15,578 job opportunities.
As many as 65,600 people received assistance from the capital’s unemployment insurance fund with a total amount of nearly VND1.82 trillion. Meanwhile, close to VND3 billion has been allocated to support vocational training for a total of 663 labourers./.
