Why this handbook?
Recently, the Covid-19 pandemic has had a heavy impact on the
economy of the world in general and of Vietnam in particular. These
impacts are reflected in the difficulties and heavy losses of
businesses, forcing business owners to reduce production, reduce
jobs, force workers to stop working, to be laid off and to be
fired, etc. in order to be able to solve temporary difficulties.
However, whether these solutions are being applied properly
according to the provisions of labor law, such as legal procedures,
application conditions and impacts to avoid unnecessary disputes
for employers is one of their major concerns.
In addition, the legal handbook on COVID-19 also provides legal
issues and answers questions on force majeure events, especially
the question of whether the Covid-19 pandemic is a force majeure
events so that the breaching party in the contract is exempt from
liability, as well as contract termination events during the
Covid-19
