At the press conference on the socio-economic situation of Ho Chi Minh City on October 10, Ms. Luong Thi Ha, Deputy Chief Inspector of the Department of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs of Ho Chi Minh City (DOLISA) said: According to the information reflected by Tien Phong Newspaper and the documents provided by the newspaper, the DOLISA has compared the relevant regulations.
Accordingly, as of October 10, 2024, the Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs has not licensed employment services; activities of sending Vietnamese people to work abroad under contracts; vocational education activities for DSS Vietnam. Because the documents show that the Company is licensed for study abroad consulting activities, the Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs is drafting a document to transfer to the Department of Education and Training of Ho Chi Minh City according to its functions.
According to Ms. Luong Thi Ha, from 2020 to now, the Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs of Ho Chi Minh City has received 12 complaints and denunciations related to DSS Vietnam, including 9 complaints about salary, social insurance and labor contracts; 3 denunciations related to collecting service fees but not fulfilling obligations related to sending Vietnamese people to study abroad and settle abroad.
