(VOVWORLD) - Covid-19 positive or isolated suspected cases should be full beneficiaries of social and health insurances in line with the Law on Social Insurance, according to a proposal by the Vietnam Social Insurance.
Deputy Chairman of the National Assembly’s Social Affairs Committee, Bui Sy Loi, said these would help workers feel secured when fulfilling social responsibilities and minimize outbreak impact on life.
He said: “Affected workers should have unemployment allowances and be re-trained to have sufficient labor workforce for social economic development. The Covid-19 outbreak has posed both economic and social issues to be settled.”
