Speaking at the 13th Congress of the Vietnam Trade Union, General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong emphasized: “In the process of organizing activities, the Trade Union must promote the right of ownership of workers, aiming at the goal of building harmonious, stable and progressive labor relations”. General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong also pointed out: “The Vietnam General Confederation of Labor needs to pay attention to researching and developing long-term welfare programs; focusing on caring for and providing comprehensive support for union members and workers, especially those in difficult circumstances, having work-related accidents, occupational diseases, and long-term illnesses. The care of the trade union must be specific, thoughtful, practical, paying attention to every meal, sleep, joy, sadness of union members, workers and their families".

What General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong always cares about most is the policy of redistributing the results of economic development to both recognize the contributions of workers to socio-economic development and create conditions to improve the living standards of workers. The activities of the trade union organization must have a focus, key points, paying attention to especially difficult cases, making the trade union truly a warm home for union members and workers.

The extremely profound instructions of General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong are the responsibility for all levels of trade unions and trade union officials to apply creatively, devote more enthusiasm to the work of caring for, protecting the legitimate rights and interests of workers, and building a trade union organization that is truly a solid support for union members and workers.
