At the same time, activities have been held to encourage female trade union members, workers and public servants to respond to the movements under which they try to balance their professional work and personal life, and to study, work and build happy families.

All-level trade unions have paid attention to taking care of their members as well as labourers through special programmes like "Worker's Month" and "Tet Reunion". Each year, from 25 to 30 trade union member families in difficult circumstances are supported to build and repair houses worth nearly 1 billion VND (39,258 USD). Thousands of other disadvantaged trade union members and labourers or those suffering from serious diseases, and children with good academic achievements have also received timely assistance from all-level trade unions.
