From June to September 2020, Better Work Vietnam (BWV) has successfully piloted a new, interactive mobile application in 51 factories in Vietnam. This app will be launched shortly across BWV participating factories as a scaling strategy to upgrade its performance and efficiency, bring the programme and its key stakeholders closer to the workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, and to increase their knowledge of work-related and global issues.
Better Work Vietnam sees the implementation of tech solutions across the sector as a key ally to further scale up its engagement with local factories in the future. That’s why, in collaboration with Vietnam’s health and labour ministries, the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour and employer groups, Better Work Vietnam has developed a chat and learning application called “Gopy.”
The app is available in Vietnamese and English and is accompanied by a web portal, as a part of its sustainability road map.
“Gopy was not only meant to support workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, but was especially thought to help us deliver our services and even go beyond them in the future,” says Pham Quoc Thuan, Better Work Vietnam Enterprise Advisor Team Leader.
“The app includes information about Better Work, its signature Performance Improvement Consultative Committee (PICC) — an enterprise-level advisory committee made of an equal number of management and worker representatives — and our local stakeholders. Through this app, we aim to further empower the workers, factories and the PICC members by giving them the chance to self-assess their work situation, monitor the risks they face and the conditions of their premises compliance.”
