More efforts needed to ensure “no one is left behind”: PM
(VOVWORLD) - Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on Saturday urged the labour, invalids and social sector to work harder in 2023 to complete its tasks, towards spreading the spirit of kindness; accelerating human resources development and promoting social progress and justice, and sustainable social development in line with the motto of “leaving no one behind”.

Addressing a conference held by the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs (MoLISA), the PM said that social policies have been well performed and poverty reduction, child protection and care, and gender equality promotion carried out comprehensively and effectively.
However, he pointed out a number of shortcomings and limitations, stressing the ministry must fine-tune mechanisms and policies to create a legal corridor and an open environment for people and businesses to easily access policies on labour, employment, and social security.
The sector and localities must ensure the effective and transparent implementation of policies towards people with meritorious services to the revolution, and mobilise all resources to take care of national contributors.
