Vietnam: Can a public lower secondary school teacher who also serves as the Chairperson of the grassroots trade union be referred to as a trade union official?

Can a public lower secondary school teacher who also serves as the Chairperson of the grassroots trade union be referred to as a trade union official?

According to Article 4 of the Charter of the Regulations of Trade Unions of Vietnam issued together with Decision 174/QD-TLD 2020 of the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour, trade union officials are prescribed as follows:

Trade union officials

1. A trade union official is a person who holds the title of deputy chief of trade union group or higher and is elected at a trade union congress or meeting; is designated, recognized, recruited or appointed to any position of trade union official, or assigned regular duties to perform trade union functions and tasks by a competent authority.

2. Trade union officials are classified as full-time trade union officials and part-time trade union officials.

a. Full-time trade union officials are persons who are assigned, engaged, appointed or elected by the all-level trade union's congress or meeting to undertake regular work of the respective trade union.

b. Part-time trade union officials are persons who work part-time, are elected by trade union members based on trust and recognized or appointed to the title of deputy chief or higher by the corresponding competent trade union.

Thus, trade union officers are individuals holding positions from deputy trade union group leader upwards. Trade union officers include full-time and part-time officers.

Part-time trade union officers are individuals employed concurrently, elected by the union members' confidence, and recognized or designated by the trade union's competent authorities to hold positions from deputy trade union group leader upwards.

Therefore, according to the regulations, a public middle school teacher concurrently serving as a trade union chairman will be classified as a part-time trade union officer.
