Are Internal Labor Regulations Required to be Registered with State Authorities?

According to Article 119 of the 2019 Labor Code, the regulations on the registration of labor rules are as follows:

- Employers employing 10 or more employees must register the labor rules with the specialized labor agency under the Provincial People's Committee where the employer is registered for business.

- Within 10 days from the date of issuance of the labor rules, the employer must submit the application for registration of the labor rules.

...

Clause 1, Article 69 of Decree 145/2020/ND-CP also provides guidance on labor rules as follows:

The employer must issue labor rules, if employing 10 or more employees, the labor rules must be in writing. If employing fewer than 10 employees, it is not required to issue written labor rules but must agree on the disciplinary and material responsibility provisions in the labor contract.

=> Therefore, enterprises employing 10 or more employees are required to register with the specialized labor agency under the Provincial People's Committee. Employing fewer than 10 employees is not required to issue written labor rules but must agree on the disciplinary and material responsibility provisions in the labor contract.
Respectfully.
