Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs

From a seed of necessity, the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs blossomed. Right here, before us, stands the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs. It’s not just a building. It’s a testament to Vietnam’s enduring spirit. The story of the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs begins in 1945 with the establishment of the Ministry of Labour. Then, in a separate but equally important development, the Ministry of Social Affair emerged in 1946. Just a year later, in 1947, the Ministry of Invalids and Veterans was founded. These individual entities, each dedicated to crucial aspects of societal well-being, eventually converged. In 1975, the Ministry of Invalids and Veteran merged with the Ministry of Social Affair, creating the Ministry of Invalids and Social Affair. This marked a significant step towards a more integrated approach to social support. The final piece of the puzzle fell into place in 1987. The Ministry of Invalids and Social Affair and the Ministry of Labour combined forces. This union gave birth to the Ministry of Labour – Invalids and Social Affairs as we know it today. This ministry plays a vital role in Vietnamese society. It oversees employment, vocational training, labor issues, salaries, social insurance, and occupational safety. It also champions the rights and well-being of war invalids, martyrs, and those who have made special contributions to the country. The Ministry’s reach extends to social protection, child care, gender equality, and the prevention of social evils. Located on 12 Ngo Quyen Street in Hanoi’s Hoan Kiem District, the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs isn’t just an administrative center. It is the heart of social progress and a symbol of Vietnam’s commitment to its people.
