Vietnamese labour law: there's an app for that

A free smartphone app designed to make Vietnam’s labour laws accessible to factory management and workers has been launched.
Created by Better Work Vietnam, a partnership between the International Labour Organisation and the International Finance Corporation, the app allows users to read Better Work’s labour law guide in both Vietnamese and English.
The guide lets users navigate through the law by sections of interest, search by key terms and save or share articles.
It covers all major areas of labour law such as rules on the minimum working age, trade unions, collective bargaining, discrimination and forced labour, among other things.
“We thought bringing the guide straight to their fingertips through a smartphone app would be an ideal way to boost its accessibility and help users navigate through the various chapters of the law more easily,” said David Williams, technical officer at Better Work Vietnam.
Williams said factory management, human resources and compliance teams were already using the app.
