Germany’s Friedrich Ebert Stiftung (FES) on May 6 said that the foundation is willing to continue its support for the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour (VGCL) to create laws and policies relating to the construction industry.
FES chairperson Anke Fuchs stated this during a meeting the same day in Hanoi with VGCL Chairman Dang Ngoc Tung.
She also said that the FES would continue to develop its legal advisory system to provide support for the lead agency in defending workers’ rights and training on preparing and negotiating collective labour agreements for VGCL’s senior officials.
Chairman Tung thanked the FES and the FES Office in Hanoi for cooperatiing with the VFCL and its provincial chapters and for their assistance in building the capacity of Vietnamese labour union workers.
With this training, the FES has helped to improve knowledge and skills of labour union officers from central to provincial levels, which is particularly important as the local economy is shifting to a market-based economy, which consists of many new, fast-growing sectors such as non-state and foreign-invested sectors, Tung added.
He also praised the FES for its assistance in setting up a network of legal advisory centres and offices in Vietnam and providing training in negotiating skills for local labour union officers.
The FES, he added, had fulfilled its function as the link that connects union movements in Vietnam with those in Germany and the rest of the world.
