NHAN KIETSince 2009

Labor Compliance Service

Your staff — Nhan Kiet signs the contracts and pays social insurance

From 1 July 2025, part-time staff with a contract of one month or longer are subject to compulsory social insurance (BHXH — Vietnam's compulsory social insurance). Instead of wrestling with the paperwork, procedures and reports yourself, move your workers to Nhan Kiet: we sign their employment contracts directly, pay social insurance, file taxes, submit labor reports and assume full legal responsibility.

  • 2,530,000 VND part-time contribution base
  • 100% of the paperwork on Nhan Kiet
  • 0 legal risk on you

Tailored to each sector's challenge

What's unique about your sector — and how Nhan Kiet handles it

You're great at running a restaurant, a chain, a fleet, a job site — nobody opens a business to become a social insurance expert. Pick your sector to see how Nhan Kiet takes that work off your plate.

Restaurants · eateries · bubble-tea & coffee chains

What's unique about the sector

  • Most staff are part-timers on split 4–5 hour shifts (lunch, afternoon, evening), the largest group being students working on the side.
  • Paid by the hour; staff come and go constantly with the seasons — Tet, summer, new-store openings.
  • Chains with many outlets — each with its own timesheet and shift roster, hard to consolidate in one place.

The risk of doing it yourself

  • Part-timers on a one-month-plus contract now fall under compulsory social insurance — not paying means back-collection, plus interest, plus penalties.
  • Constant turnover makes it easy to miss headcount filings, so your books diverge from reality when the authorities inspect.
  • Cash-in-hand pay with no contract — labor costs without valid invoices, a stumbling block when raising capital or franchising the chain.

How Nhan Kiet handles it

  • We sign employment contracts directly with every server, barista and kitchen hand — even part-timers on short shifts.
  • Part-time social insurance is paid on the reference base of 2,530,000 VND — a cost you know upfront and can bake straight into the unit cost of every drink you sell.
  • However much your headcount shifts, you send the list and Nhan Kiet handles the social insurance increase/decrease filings.
  • Reconciliation by actual workdays per outlet; anyone who works no shifts that month incurs no service fee.

💡 Keeping one part-timer fully compliant costs just an extra 543,950 VND in employer-side social insurance per month — far cheaper than a single back-collection covering a whole year, plus interest and penalties.

Retail stores · store chains

What's unique about the sector

  • Sales staff work morning, afternoon and evening shifts, and one person may cover several outlets within the same chain.
  • Mostly part-time and seasonal — surging at holidays, openings and sales, then dropping right back down.
  • Income blends hourly pay + sales commission + spot bonuses — which figure to use as the social insurance base is always a hard question.

The risk of doing it yourself

  • Many outlets, people rotating weekly — it's very easy to miss social insurance increase/decrease filings, the first item the social insurance agency checks.
  • A worker walks out then demands wages and commission with no clear employment contract — the business is always on the back foot.

How Nhan Kiet handles it

  • We sign employment contracts directly with every salesperson, including those rotating across multiple outlets.
  • Part-time social insurance paid on the reference base of 2,530,000 VND — a fixed cost that's easy to allocate to each store's unit cost.
  • Increase/decrease filings track every period's headcount changes; anyone with no workdays incurs no fee.
  • Flexible timekeeping by shift and by outlet, with a separate reconciliation statement per store.

💡 Each part-time salesperson costs a fixed insurance amount of 809,600 VND/person/month (the employer bears 543,950 VND) — a number you know in advance to price straight into each outlet's unit cost.

Driver & delivery fleets

What's unique about the sector

  • Truck and van drivers, route shippers, driver's mates — many are still on service contracts, contributor agreements or per-trip piece rates instead of employment contracts.
  • Pay by the trip, by the route or by successful delivery — with almost no fixed figure.
  • On the road all day — the highest accident risk of any labor sector.

The risk of doing it yourself

  • Signing a "service / contributor contract" with a driver who works regularly under your direction — in a dispute it can still be ruled an employment relationship, forcing back-payment of social insurance plus compensation.
  • A driver has an accident on a delivery with no occupational accident & disease insurance — the business shoulders it all; a death caused by employer fault requires compensation of at least 30 months' wages.

How Nhan Kiet handles it

  • We sign employment contracts that reflect the true nature of the relationship for drivers, shippers and mates — putting the relationship on its proper footing, with no more risk of the contract being reclassified.
  • Full social insurance, health insurance and occupational accident & disease insurance — an accident on a delivery run is now covered by the insurance fund.
  • Full-time drivers pay on their contract salary, at least the regional minimum wage for their place of work.
  • Flexible increase/decrease filings when you add vehicles in peak season; if a dispute arises, Nhan Kiet steps in to handle it.

💡 Without occupational accident & disease insurance, a single driver fatality caused by employer fault can mean compensation of at least 30 months' wages; pay it in full and the insurance portion is only about 809,600 VND/person/month, which shifts that risk to the fund.

Construction · subcontracting

What's unique about the sector

  • Day-labor crews assembled per project and disbanded when the job's done — constant turnover, and few willing to sign a long contract.
  • Paid by the workday or by output, with the foreman handing out cash to the crew at week's end.
  • Labor makes up most of the contract value yet is the hardest cost to document with valid records.

The risk of doing it yourself

  • Labor costs with no invoices or valid records — disallowed at finalization, driving up corporate income tax.
  • A site accident when workers have no contract and no insurance — the contractor bears the full compensation and legal liability.
  • Substandard workforce records — easily knocked out of the tender round, and a snag at acceptance and inspection.

How Nhan Kiet handles it

  • We sign employment contracts directly with the crew and issue a valid labor-service invoice you can book as a cost and use at finalization.
  • Social insurance plus occupational accident & disease insurance — a site accident is cushioned by insurance benefits, not dumped entirely on the contractor.
  • Increase/decrease filings track project progress — crews start, file the increase; crews demobilize, file the decrease.
  • You just confirm the actual workdays or output each month; Nhan Kiet handles payroll, personal income tax and a clean record set for tenders and acceptance.

💡 A part-time site worker pays social insurance on the 2,530,000 VND/month base — in exchange for occupational-accident coverage for the crew and a valid labor invoice for finalization.

Factories · small production workshops

What's unique about the sector

  • Orders arrive in seasonal waves — peaks need dozens of extra workers for a few weeks, then ease off.
  • Lines run continuous overtime to meet delivery, and overtime hours balloon fast.
  • Seasonal general workers job-hop for higher pay — headcount changes every single week.

The risk of doing it yourself

  • Signing seasonal contracts but forgetting the social insurance — it's compulsory from one month, so an omission means back-collection for a whole peak-season cluster of workers, plus interest.
  • Overtime past the cap of 40 hours/month, 200 hours/year (300 for special sectors) without tight control — easy to be penalized at inspection.
  • Records that can't keep pace with hire-and-quit churn — leaving you scrambling when a major client or brand audits the supply chain.

How Nhan Kiet handles it

  • We sign employment contracts directly with seasonal workers and pay social insurance for the correct one-month-plus scope — removing exactly the risk of a peak-cluster back-collection.
  • Flexible increase/decrease filings by order volume — file the increase for dozens at the peak, the decrease when the season ends.
  • Timekeeping by actual shift, full overtime pay calculated and overtime hours tracked so you never breach the cap.
  • Personal income tax filed, labor reports submitted, a clean record set kept — ready whenever a brand audits working conditions.

💡 Adding 30 seasonal workers at the peak costs just 543,950 VND/person/month in the employer-side social insurance — far cheaper than a one-off back-collection with interest and penalties for the whole cluster.

Offices · buildings — receptionists, cleaners, in-house security

What's unique about the sector

  • Receptionists, cleaners, in-house guards and concierges usually work full-time or fixed shifts and stay longer than F&B staff.
  • Many still sign piece-work contracts to dodge insurance — but piecework from 2 million is already subject to a 10% personal income tax withholding, so it's no legal loophole.
  • Few positions, but they are the face of the building — replace someone and you need a proper person in place the very next day.

The risk of doing it yourself

  • Signing piece-work contracts for regular roles — easily reclassified as employment contracts on inspection, triggering back-collection of social insurance.
  • Cleaners and guards often face accident risk; without occupational accident & disease insurance the business bears the compensation itself.

How Nhan Kiet handles it

  • We sign proper employment contracts of the correct type for receptionists, cleaners and in-house guards — replacing risky piece-work deals.
  • Full-time staff pay social insurance from the regional minimum wage, plus occupational accident & disease insurance for accident-prone roles.
  • Every time a front-line position turns over, Nhan Kiet closes the outgoing person's book and signs the incoming person's contract — seamless paperwork.
  • Everything consolidated into one statement and one valid service invoice per month — a clean indirect cost in your books.

💡 A full-time receptionist or cleaner in Region I pays social insurance from 5,310,000 VND/month — in exchange for clean worker records and peace of mind at every inspection.

Why act now

The Law on Social Insurance 2024 has brought part-time workers into the mandatory net

From 1 July 2025, the Law on Social Insurance No. 41/2024/QH15 and Decree 158/2025/NĐ-CP extend compulsory social insurance to part-time workers: it takes only a contract of at least one month and monthly wages at or above the reference level. Social insurance agencies in every region have already issued written collection guidance for this group.

That means the staffer working a 4-hour shift at the bubble-tea shop, the weekend server at the restaurant, the driver on a monthly wage — all can fall within scope. Fail to pay, and the business faces back-collection + interest + penalties, and is on the back foot when the labor authorities inspect.

Transparent contribution rates

How much is social insurance per person?

Nhan Kiet's principle: pay correctly and in full under the law, on the lowest legally permitted contribution base for each group — so the cost is predictable from day one.

265,650 VNDdeducted from wages
Total insurance cost
809,600 VND/person/month

Covering social, health, unemployment and occupational accident & disease insurance. Workers get a social insurance book and a health card for medical care — real, tangible benefits.

Frequently asked questions

What business owners usually ask

What is labor compliance, and is it legal?

It is an arrangement in which a business moves its workers over to sign their employment contracts directly with Nhan Kiet — a legal HR service model Nhan Kiet has operated since 2009 under labor sub-leasing license No. 15/2019/SHCM. Nhan Kiet becomes the employer: paying social insurance, filing taxes, submitting labor reports and bearing legal responsibility. The workers keep working at your premises exactly as normal.

What salary base do part-time staff pay social insurance on?

Nhan Kiet declares and pays on the base salary (reference level) of 2,530,000 VND/month — the salary used as the contribution base under the Law on Social Insurance 2024 for part-time workers, applicable from 1 July 2026. Total insurance cost is roughly 809,600 VND/person/month: the employer bears 21.5% (543,950 VND) and the worker 10.5% (265,650 VND) deducted from wages.

How do full-time workers pay?

On the actual contract salary, at least equal to the regional minimum wage under Decree 293/2025/NĐ-CP: Region I 5,310,000 VND, Region II 4,730,000 VND, Region III 4,140,000 VND, Region IV 3,700,000 VND/month (effective 1 January 2026).

What happens if we don't pay social insurance for part-time staff?

From 1 July 2025, part-time workers with a contract of one month or longer and monthly wages at or above the reference level are subject to compulsory coverage under the Law on Social Insurance 2024 and Decree 158/2025/NĐ-CP. Late payment or evasion can trigger a full back-collection plus interest and administrative penalties; non-compliant worker records also count against you in tenders, fundraising and franchising.

Who handles resignations, overtime and sick leave?

Nhan Kiet handles everything as the employer: reducing social insurance headcount, closing the social insurance book on resignation, filing sickness and maternity benefit claims, and answering workers' questions. All you need to do is confirm the actual workdays each month.

How is the service fee calculated — are there hidden fees?

No hidden fees. Each month Nhan Kiet prepares a statement: headcount × actual workdays + insurance and taxes paid + service fee. Both sides reconcile and confirm before any payment. If a person logs no workdays, there is no service fee for them.
