SOCIAL WORK SERVICES FOR MIGRANT WORKERS IN THE STATE ECONOMIC SECTOR FROM THE PRACTICE IN HCM CITY

NON-INTRODUCTION

1. Statement of the problem

The majority of migrants in Vietnam, according to recent statistics, tend toselect migration destinations that are close to home There are 6.4 million migrantsamong the 88.4 million persons aged 5 and older, or 7.3 % [123] Particularly, manyperi-urban areas in Ho Chi Minh City have experienced and are undergoing rapidurbanization This has produced an appealing force for migrant flows from otherregions, overburdening Ho Chi Minh City with urbanization

A number of earlier studies conducted in Vietnam have demonstrated that somemigrant workers face discrimination or marginalization in society because they arenot acknowledged as legitimate community members, and the majority of them areunaware of where to find information on relevant policies, programs, and services[64], [135] As a result, they frequently have trouble integrating into society andhave limited access to social services in urban regions This group is thought to beunderprivileged and requires prompt intervention support from social workactivities

Social work is a relatively new profession in Vietnam, and many people don'tcompletely understand it However, a legislative pathway was established togradually build the professional social work profession after the Prime Ministerpublished the Project on Developing the Social Work Profession on March 25, 2010,and put it into practice At the same time, it influences society and state officials'perceptions of the social work profession in a good way

Numerous local and foreign social groups in Vietnam have run programs andprojects involving social work activities to help the area's migrant workers duringthe past few years in Ho Chi Minh City However, there aren't many massorganizations or social groups in this region that offer social work services tomigrant workers The subjects who have a high need for social work services, whomake up roughly 7 to 8% of the population, have not yet had their demand "awaken"

as a result of hurdles to awareness and service availability low-quality,undiversified services [67] On the other hand, there are still few research studies in

the field of social work on social work services for migrant workers in rural areas.

As a result, a database for intervention social work activities will be created from thestudy "Social work services for migrant workers in the non-state economic sectorfrom practice in Ho Chi Minh City." direct interaction with migrant workers in therural tourism sector of large cities Due to study on social work, particularly socialwork services to help migrant workers in the non-state economic sector, this is anew research direction that is urgently needed

Chapter 1: LITERITURE REVIEW

1.1. In the word

1.1.1. Previous studies on the status and trends of migration and immigration

in the non-state economic sector.

Through our research, we find that there are quite a few related studies onmigration and immigration in Asia, such as that of Skeldon (1992); Huguest (1995);Pongsapich (1995); Martin (1996); Hayase, 2003; Asian countries generally exportlabor under labor contracts [41] The studies have mentioned the policy gaps formigrant workers and there is a need for further research on policies to support thebetter integration of foreign-owned migrant workers in the destination area

1.1.2. Previous studies on the accessibility to social security policies of migrant workers in the non-state economic sector

Previous studies have demonstrated that migrant workers employed in the state economic sector do not have access to many basic urban necessities includingclean water, drainage, transportation, etc Their ability to access social services likehealth and education is a barrier to their development in the target country Inaddition, the studies noted a variety of variables influencing migrant workers' access

non-to social security programs and regulations Another policy hole for migranon-toryworkers who have few rights and advantages when using social services at theirdestination is this one

1.1.3. Previous studies on social work services for migrant workers in the non-state economic sector.

Studies have revealed that migrant workers have a significant demand forsocial services in their new communities, but that these requirements are not beingmet by the social services that are currently available Social professionals employ arange of roles, depending on the needs of each client, to help migrant workers withtheir issues In order to promote the capacity building of migrant employees and findsolutions to your difficulties, there is a need for diversity in the delivery of healthand social work services to migrant workers

1.2. In Viet Nam

1.2.1. Previous studies on the status and trends of migration and immigration

in the non-state economic sector

In recent years, the topic of migration has become one of the topical researchtopics of the humanities and social sciences and has attracted manyauthors' interests According to studies, the renewal and opening-up program hasboosted the nation's economy overall and in metropolitan areas specifically,accelerated urbanization, and increased migration from rural to urban and industrialzones As a result, the topic of migration has gained attention interests from severalscholars and is one of the current research topics in the humanities and socialsciences

1.2.2. Previous studies on the accessibility to social security policies of migrant workers in the non-state economic sector.

Studies on migrant workers' social security policies reveal that because theyfrequently reside in remote areas without access to local services, migrant workersare underserved Poor quality or expensive services include social services andaccess to services Studies also reveal that the non-state economic sector's assistance

of migrant workers' access to services suffers from a lack of policy The quality oflife of migrant workers in the destination has been significantly impacted by this Inorder to ensure the community's common interests and to foster circumstances formigrant workers in the economic sector, it is required to have a diverse and completesystem of social security policies and to have a roadmap to cover the targetaudience

1.2.3. Previous studies on social work services for migrant workers in the non-state sector.

In recent years, a number of authors have expressed interest in social workservices and services for migrant workers in the non-state economic sector Socialwork is a freshly created industry in Vietnam countries, but there aren't manystudies that address this problem The non-state economic sector's provision ofsocial work services to migrant workers is a brand-new, multifaceted researchtopic with a lot of unanswered questions

1.3. General evaluation of the study

The following are some broad conclusions drawn from studying and integrating theresearch findings:

One category of social service offered by both professional and semi-professionalsocial workers is social work services

It is impossible to separate the delivery of social work services from those of health,education, communication, etc Social workers must collaborate closely with othersocial services in order to execute social work services [118], [78; p195] As aresult, social services include social work services

In Vietnam, only recently have academics begun to pay attention to social work;studies have only recently started utilizing individual social work methods, groupsocial work, or the function of social workers in aiding migrant workers in problem-solving little mention of social work services for migrant workers in the FDI sector,instead focusing on their own work
