Of the local enterprises, said the Federation, 15,534 ones have social insurance debts of 1,710 billion VND for more than 3 months.
According to Vice Chairman of the Hanoi Labour Federation Le Dinh Hung, the plan of taking legal action against these enterprises is a new and important task as the primary mission of the federation is to protect the benefits of workers.
In doing so, the city's Labour Federation has asked district labour unions to well coordinate with local People's Court and social insurance agencies and relevant agencies under the federation to start the lawsuit.
