Khanh Hoa Labor Confederation will cooperate with the Department of Labor, War Invalids & Social Affairs to launch the Workers’ Month and the Action Month for Labor Safety and Hygiene 2022 in Nha Trang, promoting propaganda in various ways about traditions of the working class and Vietnam Trade Union as well as Covid-19 prevention and control.
