description:

The specific project approach to supporting the National Wage Council is considered a good practice in terms of building evidence-based approaches to decisions; encouraging active participation by social partners, i.e. genuine collective bargaining; encouraging common understanding among tripartite partners on minimum living needs calculations; use of technical specialists to bring international and regional perspectives and lessons to Vietnam for consideration; supporting expert studies on minimum living needs and economic impacts of minimum wage decisions to strengthen NWC voice; and flexibly responding to requests of the NWC. The system of Minimum Wage Fixing through the NWC is a good practice to be replicated elsewhere with the necessary improvements proposed in this report, i.e. to enhance its structural set-up by stimulating and, where possible providing for, a platform for other ministries to become involved so that they can provide inputs in the minimum wage fixing process. In particular, inputs from specific ministries on productivity and macro-economic issues need to be institutionalized.
