In the application for a labor leasing license, Mr. Thoa found a requirement that “Have worked in the field of labor leasing or labor supply for at least 03 years (36 months) within the 05 consecutive years before applying for a license”.

Mr. Thoa proposed to remove the requirement of 3 years of experience working at a labor supply company for the application for a labor leasing license, or replace it with 3 years of experience at a job referral service company.

According to Mr. Thoa, experience for managers at labor supply companies is only assigned to peripheral tasks, not directly operating the entire company to fully understand all issues. Mr. Thoa hopes to receive further guidance if there is a solution to replace the proposed requirement.

Regarding this issue, the Ministry of Home Affairs responded as follows:

Labor leasing is a conditional business sector, with many potential risks of not ensuring the rights of employees, and can easily lead to violations if the legal representative of the enterprise does not have experience in handling issues related to employees and is not knowledgeable about labor law.

Therefore, the law needs to strictly regulate the conditions for the legal representative of the enterprise.

In the coming time, the Ministry of Home Affairs will review and amend the regulations on labor leasing activities to suit the reality.
