Vietnam Social Insurance and Employment Law for HR
Two laws now in force that change how you calculate pay, review your list and file paperwork.
What you'll get: Social Insurance Law 2024 (No. 41/2024/QH15) took effect on 1 July 2025 with 11 chapters and 141 articles, replacing the 2014 law — a rewrite rather than a patch. The Employment Law 2025 followed on 1 January 2026. This ~120-minute course targets the three areas that hit HR's daily work: who must contribute now that mandatory scope has widened, what contributions are calculated on now the salary base is determined differently, and what employees get now that pension eligibility has dropped to 15 years.
