As a socialist country, it is unsurprising that the Vietnamese legal system is highly protective of workers’ rights and conditions of employment. Since the mid-1980s, Vietnam has gradually moved towards a market economy, resulting in a radical shift in the manner, and terms and conditions, of employment. In some respects, Vietnamese employees enjoy an even higher standard of legal protection than employees in other countries.
The adoption of market principles relating to employment has moved rather slowly. The grounds on which employees can be dismissed is narrowly defined. The Labour Code and other legislation contain a considerable amount of law that is at best complementary and at worst conflicting. For many employers, labour compliance is a major concern due to the complex maze of laws, decrees, circulars, decisions and other legal documents.
A new Labour Code came into force from 1 May 2013. One of the most significant changes introduced is the recognition of the concept of labour “outsourcing”, a significant step which may well provide a flexible staffing option for foreign investors and enterprises doing business in Vietnam.
We draw your attention to a legal update we have previously prepared on the New Labour Code. Please click here if you would like to read this summary.
