Hanoi (VNA) - Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on May 26 asked for more efforts to further improve the quality and effectiveness of coordination between the Government and the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour (VGCL) to contribute to the successful implementation of the 13th National Party Congress’s Resolution and build a strong and modern working class.

Addressing a conference evaluating results of implementing the statute on the working relationship between the Government and the VGCL, PM Chinh requested the organisation to listen to and grasp the thoughts and aspirations of the working class and promptly reflect them to the Party, Government, and businesses so as to promptly find solutions.

It is also essential to continue paying attention to protecting the legitimate rights and interests of labourers in accordance with the Constitution, laws and the Party's guidelines and policies; and at the same time, strengthen inspections to promptly detect and recommend strict handling of any violations, he stressed.

Accordingly, the Government leader required the promotion of researching, developing and perfecting labour-related laws, mechanisms and policies, and the dissemination of the Party's guidelines and resolutions, and the State's policies and laws to union members and workers.

He also laid stress on the effective organisation and implementation of emulation movements; the building and development of a modern and strong working class to meet the country's development requirements in the new era, including improving labour productivity; and enhancing the role of trade unions, which is an important bridge between the Party and State with the working class and Vietnamese workers.

Trade unions at all levels need to strictly manage public financing and assets, including the effective exploitation of trade unions’ accommodation and resort facilities, under the leadership of the Party, and the management of the Constitution and laws, the PM noted.

The leader also affirmed that the increasingly close, quality and effective coordination between the Government and the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour has contributed positively to the overall success of the whole country over the past time./.
