"The city's union is asking localities to understand the situation and report in detail to have support plans," Mr. Do said. Reports from some districts show that some companies cut more than 1,000 workers, others a few hundred or a few dozen. According to data from the Ho Chi Minh City Employment Service Center, in October, more than 10,440 people who lost their jobs applied for unemployment benefits. The total number of people losing jobs in the past 10 months is nearly 128,000 people, an increase of 26% over the same period last year. Tashuan Company workers gathered at the factory when the board of directors announced its closure.

Due to lack of orders and financial difficulties, from October 24, the business arranged for workers to take turns taking time off, only working a few days a week. The company also announced that from November 5, the factory will close two workshops until orders are received. The business side said that in recent times, the board of directors has tried to find orders and maintain production to ensure jobs for workers but to no avail. Therefore, the factory was forced to stop operating for three months. During this time, if the worker wants to quit, the company will handle and close the social insurance book. In case you have not found a new job, the company will support each month 2.5 million VND, equivalent to 50% of the basic salary. After three months, if there are still no orders, the company will lay off the employee according to regulations. Reducing labor is "extremely unnecessary" and also causes headaches for many businesses. Ms. Pham Thi Chau, Head of Human Resources Administration Department of Vexos Vietnam Co., Ltd. in Tan Thuan Export Processing Zone (District 7), said that over the past month, the factory has been lacking raw materials and has been unable to export goods. If the current number of employees is maintained, workers will no longer work overtime as much as before.
