In recent days, workers at numerous enterprises across Dong Nai province have had a meaningful experience through the "Trade Union Meal" program.

The meals are thoughtfully organized and nutritionally balanced, helping workers gain the energy and strength needed for their work. The "Trade Union Meal" also reflects care, sharing, and connection. Gathering around the table, trade union officials, business owners, and workers have the opportunity to talk, listen, and understand one another, creating an atmosphere of solidarity and warmth, much like that of a family.

Notably, through the "Trade Union Meal", workers can feel the support and companionship of the Trade Union in their daily lives. Many shared that they feel more motivated at work when they are cared for and valued, even in the smallest ways. More than just a meal, the "Trade Union Meal" has become a meaningful bond that fosters connection, creating a more harmonious and friendly workplace while encouraging enthusiasm in labor.
