Under the impact of global strategic competition and the strong development of the fourth industrial revolution, the Vietnamese economy has maintained stability, overcome difficulties, and created momentum for development. The Information and Communications Trade Union, with more than 84,000 union members nationwide, has performed well in its tasks of representing, protecting, and caring for workers.

Over the past year, the union has focused on protecting the legitimate rights of union members by organizing labor conferences and signing collective labor agreements with more favorable terms than those prescribed by law. Democratic activities in agencies and units have also been effectively implemented, ensuring the rights and voices of workers.

Union welfare programs have been widely organized, helping to improve the material and spiritual lives of staff. In addition, many meaningful activities have been carried out such as organizing union markets, supporting workers during Workers’ Month, and raising awareness of occupational safety.

Communication and education activities have also achieved many remarkable results. Online courses, seminars and training programs have received a large number of union members. In addition, the union has focused on promoting communication on digital platforms, creating a strong spread of messages and union values in life.
