The number of people receiving unemployment allowance in Vietnam is estimated to reach 1.03 million by the end of this year, about 24 per cent higher than the same period last year due to the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic.
As calculated, the total payment for the unemployment allowance has reached over 16 trillion dong ($697 million) by the end of December, about 33 per cent higher than the same period last year.
