October 18, 2026 - According to Ms. Nguyen Thi Minh, Vice President of the Vietnam Coal and Mineral Workers' Union, the entire Group currently has 18,338 female workers out of a total of 93,248 employees, accounting for 19.6% of the total union members. Despite mostly holding support and service positions with unique working conditions and facing harsh weather and market fluctuations, these women consistently maintain a strong sense of responsibility and love for their profession. Recognizing the crucial role of this strong "support system," the TKV Trade Union at all levels not only focuses on caring for the material well-being of its female workers but also places special emphasis on nurturing their spiritual lives, bringing them joy, confidence, and positive energy.
For female workers, in addition to fulfilling their professional duties, many also have to manage household chores, care for children and relatives. The intertwining of professional responsibilities and family obligations makes the need for support, encouragement, rest, social interaction, and the development of cultural and spiritual life even more crucial. Therefore, caring for female workers should not only focus on implementing all policies and regulations but also be demonstrated through concrete, relatable activities that bring them joy, confidence, and motivation in life.
Recognizing this, trade unions and women's committees in coal mining units have focused on innovating the content and methods of their activities, orienting themselves towards the grassroots and prioritizing the actual needs of workers. Activities such as visiting and encouraging female workers facing difficulties, serious illnesses, raising young children, or experiencing life's hardships are implemented according to the conditions of each unit. These gifts, words of encouragement, and timely support not only have material significance but also demonstrate sharing, helping workers feel the care and concern of their organization and workplace.
A highlight of the series of cultural activities was the program celebrating the graceful beauty of women in the mining region. To commemorate the 115th anniversary of International Women's Day on March 8th, the event themed "Vietnamese Coal and Mineral Women: Graceful on the Edge of Heritage" made a profound impression, bringing together over 2,160 female union members to participate in ao dai (traditional Vietnamese dress) fashion show on stage and in the streets. The image of the flowing traditional ao dai, combined with the spirit of "Discipline and Unity" of the miners, radiated a bright and distinctive beauty to the general public.
In addition, the "Ao Dai Week" movement has expanded with a humanitarian purpose, as women have donated 1,300 sets of Ao Dai to disadvantaged women in mountainous and remote areas, thereby multiplying joy and warm sharing.
The quality of meals during shifts – a source of energy for miners to replenish their labor power.The coal and mineral industry, with its continuous production, shift work, and vast production areas, employs many groups of workers in arduous conditions. Ensuring appropriate meals and providing in-kind compensation is of practical significance in maintaining health, restoring labor capacity, and contributing to stable production.
Trade Union stands alongside female members.Over the years, trade unions at all levels have consistently focused on caring for and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of female union members and workers. In the face of increasingly demanding working conditions, the practical and timely support from trade unions at all levels continues to be a pillar of strength and motivation, enabling female workers to work and contribute with peace of mind.
TKV Trade Union plays a key role in improving the quality of employee meals.Trade unions at all levels participate in negotiating and monitoring meal services and gathering feedback from workers, contributing to improving the quality of service at various units.
Besides its charming beauty, sports and mass cultural activities have also become indispensable sources of spiritual enrichment. The Group-level women's amateur football tournament, with 350 athletes from 18 units, delivered exciting matches and strengthened team spirit.
At the grassroots level, a vibrant atmosphere of competition permeates all units with a variety of rich and flexible forms of interaction: from pickleball and volleyball tournaments to duet singing competitions. Even in the most challenging underground and open-pit mining units, the trade union still strives to organize gatherings for 100% of female workers to visit, congratulate, and present them with office attire and traditional Vietnamese dresses (áo dài). Beyond superficial events, the nurturing of the spiritual lives of female workers goes deeper through supporting individual families. Hundreds of thematic sessions and seminars on skills for maintaining happiness, reproductive health care, and child-rearing have helped women relieve stress and balance work and family life.
Mothers' peace of mind is further strengthened by the trade union's thoughtful care for the children of miners, through programs such as Mid-Autumn Festival and Children's Day, support for disadvantaged children, and honoring studious miner families and students who overcome difficulties to excel in their studies. This is also the solid foundation for women in the mining region to continue shining in the "Excellent in work, capable in home" movement, working together to build a sustainably developing corporation. |
