Oddar Meanchey: The Ministry of Labor and Vocational Training continues to expand the promotion of local job opportunities by organizing a “Labor, Social Security and Vocational Training Forum” at the Trapeang Prasat Commune, Trapeang Prasat District, Oddar Meanchey Province on Friday morning, August 7, 2026, bringing 1,300 job opportunities from large enterprises, companies and factories to citizens, former workers returning from Thailand and more than 600 young people to encourage local employment, strengthen awareness of social security and promote vocational training opportunities.
Speaking at the forum, Mr. San Kimhong, Undersecretary of State of the Ministry of Labor and Vocational Training, called on citizens to seize local job opportunities as there is currently a need for more than 90,000 labor positions in large enterprises, companies, factories, and special economic zones across the country. He highlighted that those working legally in the country will receive many benefits from the National Social Security System (NSS), including the employment risk regime, healthcare regime, and pension regime, which provide similar protection to civil servants.
He also reminded citizens to avoid illegal migration, which can expose them to exploitation and lack of legal protection. He said that domestic work not only provides a stable income, but also allows them to live together and take care of their families. For those who wish to work abroad, they must choose a company with a legal license and verify information with relevant authorities or contact Hotline 1297 for job matching and 1286 for the B.S.C. service.
At the same time, he also encouraged young people to study technical skills and vocational training at the Oddar Meanchey Provincial Vocational Training Center through the “TVET 1.5 million” program, which is a free national training program and provides monthly stipends. The program provides training in a variety of skills, including air conditioning repair, electrical, construction, coffee service, salon, grooming, and other skills, as well as a Recognised Prior Skills (RPL) test to increase job opportunities and decent wages.
Please note that this job forum is attended by large enterprises, companies, and factories. Which brought 1,300 job opportunities to the people, including Ventura Leatherware MFY (CD) Co., Ltd., Taining Siem Reap Rubber Development Co., Ltd., X-L-X-Sing Sing Co., Ltd., and Excel Asia Human Resources Co., Ltd. recruiting labor to work abroad. In addition to direct recruitment, these companies also provide information, job matching services, and consulting services to job seekers to meet current job market needs.
