Job Security for Workers in Industrial Parks in Vietnam in the Context of the Covid-19 Epidemic

Abstract

Job security is an essential theoretical framework to ensure the fundamental rights of workers in organizations or businesses. Studying aspects of job security in industrial zones, especially in the context of Covid-19, should be paid more attention. Analysis of fieldwork data in some industrial parks in Vietnam in 2018-2019 as well as national survey results by Vietnam’s General Statistics Office in 2021 and 2022 show that despite the negative impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic, workers’ job prospects remain positive. However, more solutions from governments and companies should be required to ensure all aspects of job security.
