There are nearly 1.2 million unemployed people, about 1.1 million underemployed people. Although the 4th wave of the epidemic has been predicted, the bad thing is that this outbreak has hit major economic centers and production bases of the country: Bac Giang and Bac Ninh in the north, Bac Ninh in the north, and Bac Ninh in the north; in the south, there are Binh Duong, Long An… In particular, Ho Chi Minh City is falling into a disease spiral with a much larger scale than the previous 3 epidemics.

In the context of projects being suspended from construction, businesses struggling to manage, leading to slow liquidity, VT Group has been caught up in that common difficulty. “For me and the Board of Directors personally, the current worry about the epidemic is great, but it cannot be equal to the worry for the entire staff.” However, with the spirit of solidarity and the close “love” as a family, we has been trying our best, despite the fear of the epidemic and the lack of machinery and tools when work and track progress remotely. Because in the “danger” there is always a “chance”, VT Group fully has the potential to restore the normal state and thrive after the pandemic.

In general, VT Group is currently implementing quite well the issue of remote working: work is deployed to each team – individual and has a timeline, specific and clear reports, and work coordination between different teams are maintained relatively stable. Not only young people, the older “brothers” and “uncle” also try their best in updating and applying news exchange software, maintaining interaction with everyone. This is very precious, has great spiritual value in this stressful time.
