Labor contract under Labor Code 2019

How to Determine Labour Relationship under Labour Code 2019? 

During Covid pandemic, many companies face economic challenges that need to reduce the high paid workers’ cost. There are situations which dispute arisen and the employee started to realize that the contract he or she signs with the company he or she spends eight hours each day, follows instructions of work from supervisors, and receives monthly payment at the end of the month, seems to be a consulting contract on the face instead. Is this a consulting contract or a labour contract? It is suggested the disputants engage the dispute lawyers to help resolve the potential conflict or help provide legal opinions if a labor relationship is established or not.

 


 Labor contract under Labor Code 2019

A labour contract is essentially a civil transaction, whereby the employer and the employee enter into it on the basis of voluntarity, equality, goodwill, cooperation and honesty. According to the provisions of the Vietnam Labor Code 2019, “a labor contract is an agreement between an employee and an employer on a paid job, salary, working conditions, and the rights and obligations of each party in the labor relations”. In addition, the agreements which are not under the name of a labor contract but have content showing paid employment, salary and the management, administration and supervision of one party are considered as labor contracts.

An employee is allowed to enter into many labor contracts, but the employee must ensure compliance with signed contracts, this provision creates conditions allowing employees to use their full working capacity and have additional sources of income.

Contents of the labor contract must contain information about the employer and employee; Specific information about the job and workplace; Duration of the employment contract; Job- or position-based salary, form of salary payment, due date for payment of salary, allowances and other additional payments; Regimes for promotion and pay rise; Working hours, rest periods; Personal protective equipment for the employee; Social insurance, health insurance and unemployment insurance; Basic training and advanced training, occupational skill development, these are basic but very important contents that employees need to pay attention to negotiating closely and fully to ensure the interests of employees in the process of contract performance. Besides, depending on the job and job position, the employer and the employee can agree in writing on issues related to information confidentiality, however, the employer needs to pay attention to building an appropriate system of internal labor documents to ensure the practical and effective application of information confidentiality.

Regarding the probationary contract, Labor Code 2019 allows employees and employers to agree on the content of the probationary period in the labor contract itself or sign a separate probationary contract. The agreement on the content of the probationary period in the labor contract will cause some insurance obligations to the insurance agency, therefore, the employer and the employee need to carefully search relevant legal provisions in order to negotiate and agree on the contents of the labor contract to ensure compliance with the law and the rights and obligations of both parties.

In addition, in case the employee and the employer wish to amend, supplement or replace the agreed contents in the labor contract, the two parties sign an addendum to the labor contract to amend the respective contents. However, if the term of the labor contract is changed, the parties must agree to terminate the old labor contract and enter into a new labor contract. The labor contract appendix is ​​an integral part of the labor contract and has the same effect as the labor contract.

Employees as well as the labor collective and employers should pay attention to selecting the most appropriate and optimal resolution solution when labor disputes occur.  It is also suggested to consult with labour lawyers of Labour dispute law firm in Vietnam speacializing in employment matters for efficiency.

How Cross-Border Supply of Services Works?

Bilateral or multilateral free trade agreements between countries are formed majorly based on the WTO agreement system. In particular, GATS as an Agreement under the WTO system, is the first and only set of multilateral rules governing international trade in services. Ways or modes of trading services are basic provisions of GATS, including: Cross-border supply (mode 1), Consumption abroad (mode 2), Commercial presence (mode 3), Presence of natural person (mode 4). The categorization of modes covering its own regulations depends on the territorial presence of the supplier and the consumer at the time of the transaction. 

 


International trade dispute law firm in Vietnam

According to GATS, cross -border supply means supply of a service from the territory of one Member into the territory of any other member, and supplier and consumer of a member do not present within the territory of other member. Consumption abroad means supply of a service in the territory of one Member to the service consumer of any other member. Presence of natural person means supply of a service by a service supplier of one member, through presence of natural persons of a member in the territory of any other member. It should be noted that cross-border supply of services is defined depending on each Agreement. Under CPTPP, cross-border supply includes modes 1, 2 and 4 above. In this article, cross-border supply is equivalent to mode 1, under GATS.

When participating in GATS, members make commitments for market access with respect to each mode of service supply and sub-sector. The GATS provides a set of general principles that all WTO members must adhere to, which there is no unnecessary barriers applied to trade. However, GATS expressly recognizes the rights of member governments to manage and regulate the supply of services in pursuit of their own policy objectives. GATS also does not interfere in internal affairs ad policies of members. Therefore, the governments absolutely have the right to decide and adopt their trade policies. The enterprise of a member must comply with domestic regulations in the territory of other member where they conduct business and trade in services and refer to that Member’s Schedule of Specific Commitments to understand market access obligations and national treatment.

Most sub-sectors do not restrict market access and national treatment for foreign suppliers providing cross-border services in Vietnam (legal, accounting, auditing, tax, architecture, advertising, management consulting, …). Although the market access is not restricted, it does not mean that the foreign suppliers freely provide services in Vietnam without satisfaction of conditions or without the consent of the competent state authorities. To consider this mater and have a correct understanding, the national treatment principal should be reviewed, it requires that each member shall accord to services and service suppliers of any other member the treatment no less favourable than that it accords to its own like services and service suppliers. Having said that, in the event that a member maintains business conditions for the domestic services and service suppliers, these conditions may also apply to the foreign services and service suppliers.

Such as accounting service business, foreign service suppliers are not restricted in market access and national treatment under the Schedule of Specific Commitments in Services. It means that a foreign accounting firm can provide accounting services to a Vietnamese enterprise. However, accounting service is a conditional business applicable to domestic firms. According to the national treatment principle, Vietnam has the right to impose similar conditions on foreign suppliers. Reference to the provisions of Vietnamese laws, the foreign accounting firm must fully meet the conditions of head office and personnel to be licensed its business in Vietnam. Further, there are tax liabilities arisen which obligations of registration and declaration depend on particulars of transactions. It is suggested that international trade lawyers are consulted to avoid potential disputes or non-compliance of cross-border supply of services.

Dispute Settlement in International Trade

In international trade, when drafting international contracts, the parties usually focus on the terms of payment and expense but little attention to terms of dispute settlement. Thus, the parties should be aware that the disagreements and disputes can arise at any time. Therefore, in the process of concluding an international economic agreement, the parties should note the provisions on the selection methods of dispute settlement if a dispute occurs. Currently, there are 4 dispute resolution methods in international trade as follows: negotiation, mediation, commercial arbitration and court.

 


Dispute Law Firm in Vietnam

Negotiation

Negotiation is a settlement method which is usually applied in international dispute settlement. In particular, the parties discuss together, struggle, compromise and agree to settle the dispute. The result of the negotiation is that the dispute could be resolve or not. Negotiation is conducted in two ways: The two parties directly meet each other to discuss and deal or one party submit complaint to the other party and the other party answers the complaint.

Mediation

Mediation is the method of resolving dispute between the parties through the role of a third party. Mediation can be accomplished by two ways: One is that the parties agree with each other about mediation, the mediator will be designated and conduct the mediation without following any rules of mediation. The second way is that the parties agree to conduct the mediation under rules of a professional organization or one specific arbitration institution, such as mediation rules of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC).

Commercial arbitration

Arbitration is a method of dispute settlement arising in trade activities that are agreed between the parties and carried out according to the order and proceedings. Presently, there are kinds of arbitration such as: ad hoc arbitration and permanent arbitration.

Court

The 3 dispute settlement methods above are voluntary in nature. They are different from the dispute settlement in accordance with judicial procedures at court. The settlement of dispute by court is to resolve dispute through the activities of the State tribunals. Therefore, litigants in the dispute are often considered as a final solution to protect their legitimate interests. Especially, when there is a conflict, the parties will choose the form of trade negotiation or mediation rather than commercial arbitration or court.

Fundamental Contract Breaches in Law on Commerce 2005 and CISG 1980

What Are Fundamental Contract Breaches in Law on Commerce 2005 and CISG 1980?

Fundamental breach is a type of contract breach, in which the Law on Commerce 2005 defines that a breach of contract committed by one of the parties is fundamental if it causes damage to the other party to the extent that the other party fails to achieve purpose of contract conclusion. The significant factor that makes the difference between the fundamental and minor breach of contract is the materiality.

 


Contract Dispute Lawyers in Vietnam

Fundamental breach is an important foundation for the imposition of trade remedies such as temporary suspension of performance, suspension of performance or contract cancellation when the contract has no specific agreement. Nonetheless, Law on Commerce 2005 does not provide further guidance on fundamental breach. Court or arbitrator has a right to determine whether a breach is fundamental on a case-by-case basis. 

As set forth in CISG 1980, a breach of contract committed by one of the parties is fundamental if it results in such detriment to the other party as substantially to deprive him of what he is entitled to expect under the contract, unless the party in breach did not foresee and a reasonable person of the same kind in the same circumstances would not have foreseen such a result. CISG also does not provide specific provisions to explain fundamental breach in details. Nonetheless, it can be deemed that in order to constitute a fundamental breach, three following factors need to be met: (i) a breach is made, (ii) detriment resulted from such breach substantially deprives him of what he is entitled to expect under the contract, and (iii) the breach can be foreseen.

The difference between constitution of a fundamental breach under CIGS 19080 and Law on Commerce 2005 is that: a breach cannot be treated as under CISG 1980 in case the breaching party did not foresee and a reasonable person of the same kind in the same circumstances would not have foreseen such a result. Law on Commerce 2005 does not stipulate factor (iii) as mentioned herein but requires that (1) a breach is made and (2) damage resulted from such breach causes other party failed to achieve its purpose of contract conclusion to constitute a fundamental breach. The aggrieved party accordingly has a right to impose remedies such as temporary suspension of performance, suspension of performance or contract cancellation.

The consequence factor of fundamental breach in Law on Commerce 2005 is similar to CIGS 1980. In case the purchaser is aggrieved party, what he/she is entitled to expect under the contract is right to receive the goods, to own the goods and to sell to other parties to earn profits or manufacture products or other ways he/she can make a profit. In case the seller is aggrieved party, what he/she is entitled to expect under the contract is right to receive payments, which is profits he/she may earn. The purpose of contract conclusion as provided in Law on Commerce 2005 is same as what the purchaser and seller are entitled to expect under the contract as stipulated in CISG 1980.
