The Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs has informed the labor and employment situation during the Lunar New Year 2025. Accordingly, before the Lunar New Year, businesses have a high demand for recruiting seasonal workers due to boosting production to serve the needs of the Lunar New Year. In Ho Chi Minh City, the estimated demand for recruiting workers before the Lunar New Year is 28,525 jobs, mainly concentrated in the trade and service sector, accounting for nearly 70%.
Most businesses try to maintain or increase Tet bonuses to retain employees, while many workers from other provinces return home early, which can also lead to local labor shortages. However, there are still cases of businesses delaying payment of salaries and 13th month bonuses, causing difficulties for employees before Tet holiday.
During Tet, businesses have implemented many policies and benefits to support employees, mostly Lunar New Year and New Year bonuses. Some businesses support temporary accommodation; support travel expenses for employees to return home for Tet. In addition, businesses also have other benefits such as cash gifts, Tet gifts or 13th month salary bonuses to ensure rights and create the best conditions for employees to celebrate Tet.
On the side of the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor (VGCL), the program "Union Train - Spring 2025" supported round-trip train tickets for 1,750 union members and workers from the Southern provinces to the North. At the same time, the VGCL supported a Union flight, bringing 400 workers back to their hometowns with two routes: Ho Chi Minh City - Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City - Vinh.
According to the General Confederation of Labor, the number of collective work stoppages before the Lunar New Year of At Ty in 2025 has decreased by 50% compared to the previous year, with 7 cases in the last two months of 2024. This reflects the effectiveness of activities to care for workers during Tet. Enterprises have proactively discussed salaries and bonuses early and coordinated with unions to organize practical programs, helping to reduce conflicts and retain workers.
Some industrial parks in Hanoi, Bac Giang, Dong Nai, Binh Duong... have thousands of workers working through Tet. Some key national projects such as Long Thanh airport, southern expressways, energy projects... still maintain urgent work, through Tet. Workers and laborers are allowed to celebrate Tet at the construction site in accordance with the direction of the Prime Minister in Official Dispatch No. 06/CD-TTg dated January 25, 2025.
The Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs forecasts that after the Lunar New Year of At Ty 2025, the labor market will experience fluctuations such as some labor forces may not return due to job changes or changes in residence. This leads to a temporary local labor shortage and an increased demand for new personnel recruitment in the first quarter of 2025, especially in the manufacturing and service sectors. However, enterprises often proactively have policies to "retain" employees and improve benefits to minimize personnel fluctuations after Tet.
Besides, a large workforce in the public service sector after the plan to reorganize and streamline the state apparatus will participate in the labor market, creating pressure on job connection for these subjects.
In the face of the above situation, the Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs recommends that state agencies in charge of employment, in order to ensure employment after Tet, should focus on proactively grasping the labor and employment situation in the area. At the same time, agencies and units should strengthen labor market information and connect labor supply and demand through activities such as increasing the frequency of organizing job fairs and online sessions connecting with many localities.
According to the Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs, by 2025, the labor market will recover, but challenges related to labor and employment will be associated with ensuring social security. Therefore, the Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs has proposed solutions to develop the labor market and connect labor supply and demand. That is to build and perfect the labor market information system and labor and employment database. In addition, it is necessary to effectively connect and regulate labor supply and demand, encourage job creation in both the public and private sectors, and help workers find jobs and change jobs that match their abilities and strengths.
The Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs also proposed solutions to synchronously and effectively implement policies, programs and projects to support domestic employment; improve the efficiency of lending to the National Employment Fund; focus on job creation for young people, middle-aged workers, disadvantaged workers and female workers. At the same time, it is necessary to improve capacity and promote the work of forecasting labor demand and vocational training needs of enterprises in terms of quantity, quality, occupational structure and qualifications of workers.
