Registration dossier for labor regulations
According to Article 120 of the Labor Code, the registration dossier for labor regulations includes:
- A written request for labor regulations registration;
- Labor regulations;
- Written opinions from the labor representative organization at the grassroots level (if available);
- Documents from the employer specifying disciplinary rules and material responsibilities (if applicable).
Procedure for registering labor regulations
To register, the employer follows the procedure:
Step 1. Submitting the dossier
Within 10 days from the issuance date of the labor regulations, the employer must submit the registration dossier to the labor authority under the provincial People’s Committee where the business is registered.
Step 2. Examination and acceptance by the competent authority
Within 7 working days from receiving the dossier, if the content of the labor regulations contradicts the law, the labor authority informs the employer, providing guidance on necessary amendments, additions, and re-registration.
Registration is a prerequisite for the legal effectiveness of labor regulations.
Note:
If the employer has branches, units, production facilities, or businesses located in different areas, they should send the registered labor regulations to the labor authority under the provincial People’s Committee where each branch, unit, or facility is located.
Effectiveness of labor regulations
Similar to the provisions in Article 122 of the 2012 Labor Code, labor regulations become effective 15 days after the competent state authority receives the complete registration dossier.
In cases where the employer employs fewer than 10 workers and issues labor regulations in writing, the effectiveness is determined by the employer within the labor regulations.
