selection when no longer fit the new ideas and change of practice But there will be no legal or non-legal policy than policy In this sense, the policy is the soul, the content
Trang 29of the law, there are legal forms and means of expression of policy when it is recognized, that is issued by the state as a regulatory sequences
Employees are foreign citizens working in Vietnam must comply with Vietnamese labor law, international treaties to which Vietnam is a contracting party other and protected by Vietnamese law Accordingly, the provisions of the labor contract, the recruitment process, duration of work, compensation and labor safety and sanitation work in labor relations will apply the provisions of the Vietnamese Labor Code
