Although they were new workers, the unit provided support in terms of equipment, tools, necessities, free medical check-ups and medicine, and allowed them to participate in meaningful and practical activities during Workers' Month. “The support from the 715th Economic-Defense Brigade is not only material but also a great source of moral encouragement, helping the people gain more confidence and motivation to overcome difficulties, stabilize their lives, and work and produce with peace of mind,” Ms. Rơ Mah BLý said.

Over the years, the 715th Economic-Defense Brigade has created jobs for thousands of people, provided tens of thousands of man-days of labor, and contributed tens of billions of dong to the construction of public works, supported technical work in production and livestock farming, and contributed to the local efforts in poverty alleviation and rural development.
Through our research, we learned that all units under the 15th Army Corps have identified the 2026 Workers' Month as a peak period for honoring, caring for, and showing gratitude to workers, implementing many meaningful and practical activities such as: "May Dialogue" and the Forum "Union Members Contribute to Building the Vietnam Trade Union in the New Era"; the "Thank You to Workers" program, "Healthy for Labor and Production"; organizing activities to honor outstanding workers, competitions for skilled rubber tapping workers at all levels; competitions for projects, initiatives, technical improvements, and competitions for outstanding occupational safety and health officers at all levels. They also organized "Zero-Cost Booths," free medical examinations and medicine distribution for workers and the people; organized "Trade Union Meals," culinary exchanges; traditional bonfires, gong performances, and games. The units also distributed thousands of gifts to workers, employees, and the people in the area.
Colonel Dau Thien Luong, Commander of the 74th Economic-Defense Brigade, said that in addition to implementing models, programs, and peak activities to create livelihoods, jobs, and improve income and material and spiritual life, the unit also presented more than 1,500 gifts, totaling over 600 million VND, to workers during the 2026 Workers' Month. Along with that, the Party Committee and Command of the 74th Economic-Defense Brigade have effectively promoted the role of trade union organizations at all levels with the motto "Where there are workers, there is a trade union"; promoting movements such as: "Excellent workers, creative workers", "Skill training, skilled worker competitions", "Promoting initiatives and technical improvements", spreading the spirit of creative work, discipline, and responsibility among cadres and trade union members.

According to Colonel Khuat Ba Cao, Secretary of the Party Committee and Deputy Commander of the 15th Army Corps, for the 15th Army Corps, the workforce is not only a productive force but also a core element in the villages and hamlets of ethnic minorities, religious communities, and border areas. They are the "bridge" in building national unity, military-civilian solidarity, and establishing a solid "people's support" base, contributing to maintaining political stability, security, and safety in the strategic Central Highlands region.
Therefore, caring for the employment, income, living conditions, safety, and health of workers and employees is essentially caring for the resources and sustainable development of the unit. Recognizing this, the Party Committee, the Command of the Corps, and the Party committees and commanders at all levels have always paid attention to leading and directing the workers' movement and trade union activities in a comprehensive, close, and effective manner. In particular, the annual Workers' Month has seen many innovations and creative activities aimed at the grassroots level, providing the best possible care for workers.
