The evaluation and classification of labor based on working conditions under Circular 29/2021/TT-BLĐTBXH is a process of surveying, measuring, evaluating, and classifying labor positions based on the working conditions within a company. This process assesses the extent to which these conditions impact employees’ health, safety, and career development. It involves classifying labor conditions for arduous, toxic, or dangerous occupations, as well as very arduous, toxic, or dangerous occupations. The employer is responsible for ensuring the implementation of labor protection measures and healthcare for employees.

- Steps for Evaluating and Classifying Labor Based on Working Conditions According to Circular 29/2021/TT-BLĐTBXH
- Step 1: Preparation for Evaluation
- Identify labor targets and positions to be evaluated, including specific industries and job positions.
- Gather relevant information on working conditions (legal regulations, labor environment documents, employee health records).
- Step 2: Identifying Working Condition Factors
- Assessment factors include physical (temperature, noise levels, lighting), chemical (vapors, toxic gases, dust), labor psychology, and ergonomics.
- Determine the intensity and duration of worker exposure to these factors during the work process.
- Step 3: Measurement and Evaluation
- Technical measurement methods (measurement devices, observation) collect data on working condition factors.
- Evaluate the impact of these factors on employee health and safety based on national or international standards.
- Step 1: Preparation for Evaluation
- Labor Classification Based on Working Conditions
- Based on measurement results, labor conditions are classified into the following groups:
- Non-arduous, non-toxic, or non-dangerous occupations are those with class I, II, or III working conditions.
- Arduous, toxic, or dangerous occupations are those with class IV working conditions.
- Very arduous, toxic, or dangerous occupations are those with class V or VI working conditions.
- Each labor condition group has specific health standards, working hours, and labor policies.
- Based on measurement results, labor conditions are classified into the following groups:
- Report Preparation and Proposing Improvement Measures
- Prepare an evaluation report with measurement results and propose specific working condition classifications.
- Suggest measures to reduce or eliminate hazardous factors in the workplace, while also serving as a basis for employers to fully implement policies for workers in strenuous, hazardous, dangerous, and particularly strenuous, hazardous, and dangerous jobs, according to relevant legal regulations.
Classifying working conditions helps businesses comply with labor safety and hygiene laws and creates a safe, healthy working environment for employees.
