Who is the employer working at the representative office?

Eighteen years ago, a company headquartered in Singapore set up its

representative office in Vietnam to carry out market research and trade
promotion activities. By the end of 2020, considering that the role of the
representative office has been completed, this company decided to terminate
the operation of the representative office.
As a rule, the company announces the termination of operation of the office
representing the Department of Industry and Trade; representative offices
stop all activities, and liquidate contracts, including contracts with suppliers,
renting office contracts, and laboring contracts with employees.
The work of liquidating contracts proceeds normally until some of the
terminated employees complained that it was illegal to terminate their
employment contracts. They sued the company in Court to demand that the
company take them back to work and pay compensation as prescribed.
Tourism human resources: untimely training
Mr. Vu The Binh said that in recent years, the number of tourists growth
steadily, requiring human resources, especially high-quality human resources
must also grow proportionately, but schools and training institutions do not
meet the requirements because of the low quality of training. "The country has
several hundred tourism schools, which is quite a lot, but due to the low
quality of training thus human resources are still lacking because these people
require not too high income compared to domestic, businesses also have many
opportunities to recruit good people," he said.
According to data given during the conference, the country has 346 tourist
training institutions but most of them have low-quality training, so enterprises
have to spend more money on retraining after recruitment. The recruitment
rate of students after graduation is also low. Enterprises assess that students
after graduation still lack the skills to work, especially in foreign languages,
which is very important for tourists. The majority of graduates do not meet the
foreign language requirements of recruitment companies.
Mr. Binh said that in the next 5 years, the labor force must increase by about
20% to meet the development needs. "The number of tourism businesses is
increasing. There are hundreds of hotels waiting to open and are in need of
people to work but we lack professional workers ", he said and said that
training institutions must change from the roots, training people in tourism
instead of just training bachelors who do not know how to work.
Representatives of some universities participating in the conference also
voiced the same situation, when saying that the whole country does not have
uniform standards for tourism training. Each school has a different standard,
and a different curriculum, even the name of each major is different. The
teaching staff and experts are many, quality but not affiliated to create good
training programs. In addition, students also lack the opportunity to rub with
reality to increase their vocational skills.
