The movement “Good workers, Creative workers” has been widely deployed in agencies, units and enterprises, associated with the production and business tasks of each locality and unit. From daily labor practices, hundreds of thousands of initiatives, technical improvements, production rationalization solutions, and new science and technology applications have been born, contributing to helping enterprises overcome difficulties, maintain growth and improve working conditions for workers.

Over the past 5 years, Trade Unions at all levels across the country have continuously innovated the content and implementation methods, linking the movement with practice at the grassroots level. Many effective models have been formed and replicated such as "Improving productivity and quality", "Trade Unions accompany businesses for jobs and workers' lives"... From these models, the spirit of emulation has spread widely, becoming an endogenous driving force to help workers be proactive and creative in their work, contributing to building harmonious, progressive and stable labor relations.

Along with that, the honor and reward system has been implemented synchronously and promptly, creating a strong social effect. Prestigious awards such as "Nguyen Duc Canh", "Nguyen Van Linh", "Ton Duc Thang", "Excellent Worker of the Capital" or "Initiatives and Creativity in Workers, Civil Servants and Laborers of the Capital" have become symbols of the creative spirit of Vietnam, the pride of the working class, and at the same time, adding motivation for them to continue to strive and contribute. The period 2020 - 2025 marks a remarkable development of the movement with nationwide programs such as "75 thousand initiatives, overcoming difficulties, developing" and "1 million initiatives - efforts to overcome difficulties, creativity, determination to win the Covid-19 pandemic". In the difficult context of the pandemic, these programs have demonstrated the resilience, will to rise up and collective intelligence of the Vietnamese working class, making an important contribution to maintaining production, ensuring employment and economic recovery after the pandemic. In particular, the "National Creative Labor Festival 2025" is a clear demonstration of the movement's influence. This is not only a place to honor outstanding individuals and groups, but also a forum for sharing experiences, connecting initiatives between businesses and industries, promoting the spirit of innovation throughout society.

According to statistics, after 5 years of implementation, the movement has recorded 2,792,183 initiatives, bringing in an estimated value of 102,920 billion VND. The Vietnam General Confederation of Labor has awarded 3,815 certificates of creative labor to authors with outstanding initiatives. These numbers not only show the scale but also affirm the effectiveness and influence of the movement in the country's socio-economic life.

Vice President of the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor Ngo Duy Hieu assessed that the “Good Labor, Creative Labor” movement is a vivid demonstration of the enduring vitality of the Vietnamese working class in the renovation period. The movement not only contributes to improving productivity, quality and work efficiency but is also a symbol of the spirit of innovation and creativity, and the aspiration to rise up of Vietnamese workers.

In order for the movement to continue to be effective, trade unions at all levels need to focus on innovating the content and organization methods, linking the movement with the practice of digital transformation and the 4.0 industrial revolution; promoting the work of praising and replicating advanced models; encouraging businesses to make the movement a typical cultural feature in the working environment.

“Not only stopping at economic results, the “Good Workers, Creative Workers” movement also contributes to building Vietnamese people of the new era, dynamic, creative, knowledgeable, able to master technology and constantly innovate to adapt to the rapid development of the country. This is also a practical way for the Trade Union to affirm its role of representing, protecting the rights and promoting the potential of union members, workers, the core force in the cause of industrialization and modernization of the country” - Mr. Ngo Duy Hieu emphasized.

Prestigious awards such as “Nguyen Duc Canh”, “Nguyen Van Linh”, “Ton Duc Thang”, “Excellent Worker of the Capital” or “Initiatives and Creativity among Workers, Civil Servants and Laborers of the Capital” have become symbols of Vietnam’s creative spirit, the pride of workers and laborers, and at the same time, they motivate them to continue to strive and contribute...
