After two houses has been finished for workers in 2019, in January 2020, Westfood continuously accomplished and delivered the third house to poor workers.
As a company operating in the export of canned fruit employs a large number of workers – especially owns the high rate of poor workers who have no stable residence, Westfood’s Board of Directors always concern to make plans to support the company’s workers to improve their lives, especially help them to have a stable, peaceful home.
For that reason, since 2017, Westfood has cooperated with the Ninh Kieu District Labor Union to implement the program “Trade Unions” to help company’s workers who are in difficult circumstances. Most of the beneficiaries of the “Union of Trade Unions” program are workers who do not have a home, hardship family cases that are not eligible to build houses or arduous statuses where houses are too shabby, unaffordable to remodel.
Following two hand-over houses in 2019, Westfood and Ninh Kieu District Labor Union completed the handover of the third shelters to the family of Dang Thi Lien, a senior worker who has had over 7 years at Westfood. At present, Lien and her family are all working together at Westfood.
As a member of FIT Group, Westfood is always imbued with the logic of solidarity, “good leaves protect torn leaves” from the parent company. Right from its inception, FIT Group has implemented many volunteer programs such as: Free medical examination and treatment, free rice distribution, orientation programs for the younger generation, and public health improvement programs. etc.
In the near future, FIT Group in general as well as Westfood in particular, will continue to implement many social programs, become the pioneering enterprises in the implementation of social responsibility in Vietnam, become Group members’s pride and contribute to the improvement and enhancement Vietnamese lives.
