Recommendation to "import" foreign labor
In particular, Tosok Nidec Corporation (100% capital of Japan, copper production) suggests recruit Philippines workers and Three Bambi companies (100% capital of Japan, specialty in clothing) proposes to recuit Laos labor.
Suggestion comes from the lack of constant labor, especially before and after Lunar New Year. While the EPZ and Industrial Park’ Employment Center and some other centers cannot meet the needs of those employer. After the Lunar New Year, the EPZ-IZ lacks 5-10% labor, currently the total demand for labor is 12,000.
At an meeting at March 4th at the HCMC Department of Labor-Invalids and Social affairs, they also said that most companies in the City area after Lunar New Year suffered the labor shortage from 3-10% (about 35,000 people).
The deficiency is mainly due to workers not to come back to work or to come late afer Tet. Many ideas show that due to low-income, high prices increase make workers do not want to go to HCM City to find work. Meanwhile, some provinces have developed industrial zones, therefore attracted a large number of workers at work.
