Hanoi (VNA)♊ – Minister of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs Dao Ngoc Dung on August 13 met with Romanian Ambassador to Vietnam Cristina Romila to discuss labour cooperation between Vietnam and Romania.
At the meeting, Ambassador Romila mentioned the Memorandum of Understanding signed by the two countries on cooperation in labour and social security, adding that Romania sees Vietnamese workers as dynamic and skilful.
She also mentioned the proposal to exempt visas for Romanian citizens to meet the requirements of the new situation and the cooperative relationship between the two countries.
In the last few years, many Romanian citizens have come to Vietnam, and similarly, many Vietnamese people have gone to work in Romania. Therefore, the Romanian Ministry of Labour and Social Protection has drafted a set of materials to introduce its social insurance system to the Vietnamese Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs, she said.
The diplomat suggested the Vietnamese ministry consider the possibility of cooperation between the two countries in negotiating a bilateral social insurance agreement related to pensions, sickness, and maternity. Romania also wants to receive documentation on Vietnam’s Social Insurance Law.
Minister Dung noted that about 2,600 Vietnamese workers are working in Romania, mainly in the mechanical, construction, carpentry, textile and garment, food and domestic work sectors. Those who work under contracts signed between Vietnamese enterprises and Romanian enterprises are entitled to two types of insurance which are health insurance and occupational accident insurance.
Regarding the protection of the rights of Vietnamese workers in Romania, Dung said that Romanian authorities have coordinated closely with Vietnamese diplomatic missions to provide information on the situation of Vietnamese workers in the country.
The minister also discussed Vietnam’s human resources development policies and those for employing foreign workers as well as those for Vietnamese workers working abroad with the Romanian ambassador./.
Vietnam and Romania have agreed to promote cooperation between the two legislative bodies and continue to coordinate closely and support each other at inter-parliamentary forums.
