Chairman of the provincial Labour Confederation Trinh Van Bung briefed the guests on the trade union activities of the province and industrial parks. Ha Nam now has 177,000 trade union members.
The provincial Labour Confederation and the Trade Union of Industrial Parks have organised many practical activities to take care of their members and employees on the occasion of Tet (Lunar New Year) or Workers' Month. The average salary of a worker is 6-7 million VND (256-299 USD) per month. The province has not seen any case of workers going on strike for many years.
