Some new points in the Draft of Law on Employment
The Law on Employment 2013 is the first law that fully and comprehensively regulates the employment relationships and labor market in Viet Nam. However, after over nine years of implementation, the Law on Employment 2013 has shown several inadequacies that are no longer suitable for the current practice and socio-economic context. Therefore, the Ministry of Labour – Invalids and Social Affairs is developing a Draft of Law on Employment (amended) (Draft Law) to implement new orientation and policies of the Party, ensure the synchronization, consistency, and suitability of the legal system and international commitments that Viet Nam participates in. This article introduces some outstanding new points of the Draft Law, focusing on the regulations related to unemployment insurance (regarding subjects of unemployment insurance engagement and payable unemployment insurance rates) and labor registration.
