Textile and garment industry: Efforts to keep workers, keep orders to recover
22/11/2021
How to restore production after the COVID-19 epidemic is always a concern of businesses, especially in the textile and footwear sector when production depends on hundreds of thousands of workers. The solution to recovering from a dose of "antibiotics" of social distancing is what businesses need to retain employees, care about those who have been and are currently attached, and above all, persuade employees to return to their work. Pay attention to employee retention The Textile and Garment Association said that the last 3 months of 2021 will be an "extremely difficult" time for the textile industry. This industry will face the highest risk of disruption in the supply chain because partners move orders to other places and the risk of labor shortage because workers are tending to return to their hometown to avoid the epidemic, and it is not easy to return. right back. Labor deficit from now to the end of the year will be around 35-37%. Although Ho Chi Minh City and the southern provinces and cities are gradually reopening in October 2021, it is still difficult for workers to return to work, because there are only a few months left until the New Year and the Lunar New Year. Not to mention that many localities are applying social distancing measures under Directive 16, which is a barrier in finding alternative labor sources. This is a huge challenge for the business community when there is no optimal plan to recruit workers in the 'new normal' condition. Viet Hong Textile JVC is also experiencing a significant impact on human resources for the last months of 2021 and the beginning of 2022!
