The Embassy of Denmark in Vietnam and CO-Industri, the Central Organisation of Industrial Employees in Denmark, have highlighted the importance of safe and sustainable workplaces during a recent visit to local Vietnamese businesses and craft villages.

The delegation visited Kim Lan Ceramics Village, where Danish support has contributed to reducing environmental impact, improving workplace safety, and enhancing product quality in traditional production. The group also visited Hitachi Energy, Studio CHS, and LTP Garment, where they observed how green production methods, worker well-being, and safe working environments have supported both business growth and competitiveness.

In discussions with the International Labour Organization (ILO), Denmark underscored the importance of global labour standards and strong social dialogue in promoting decent work and fair opportunities for all. The Embassy promoted the Nordic model—where strong social services, education, and unions foster innovation and prosperity— as it offers valuable lessons for Vietnam.

The Embassy of Denmark expressed its commitment to continuing exchanges and cooperation with Vietnamese partners towards creating a fair, inclusive, and sustainable labour environment, and wished for further collaborations.
