The Vietnam General Confederation of Labour has introduced Plan 56/KH-TLĐ to provide support for workers during the 2027 Tet holiday. The initiative targets vulnerable groups, such as low-income earners and those in hazardous or remote occupations, through various support tiers. High-level delegations are expected to provide packages valued at 2.5 million VND per person, while local federations and corporations are encouraged to mobilize resources, including free train tickets and direct bank transfers. In Ho Chi Minh City, the Confederation of Labor has proposed that businesses consider providing Tet bonuses or partial advances as early as November or December. This ~~suggestion~~ suggestion, supported by Ho Chi Minh City Party Secretary Tran Luu Quang, aims to help workers manage year-end expenses like ~~travel~~ travel, gifts, and ~~shopping. However, officials~~ school fees. Officials noted that early payouts may present challenges for large enterprises, as bonus amounts are typically tied to annual business results and require multiple levels of corporate approval. Local authorities in Ho Chi Minh City are encouraging these early distributions to help stimulate consumer demand by allowing workers to shop before holiday price surges. While workers in industrial zones like VSIP 2, Linh Trung 1, and Tan Binh have expressed a desire for early payments, business leaders have noted that timing remains dependent on production schedules, business performance, and the necessity of maintaining staffing levels during the year-end period.
