The Hero of Labor (or Labor Hero) (Vietnamese: Anh hùng lao động) is the highest title of honor in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. It is awarded (possibly posthumously) to individuals with outstanding achievements in labor. This includes supporting the objective of a strong country and an equitable, democratic, prosperous, and civilized society. Awardees are loyal to the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, and possess revolutionary virtues and qualities. It can be awarded to collectives for the same reasons that have maintained good internal unity, strong Party affiliations and mass organizations.[1]
History
This prize was officially created in 1970 by the National Assembly of Vietnam of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam. The National Assembly Standing Committee reviewed the proposal of the Government Council. However, the Congress of emulation fighters began awarding it in 1952.
In 1999, the Socialist Republic of Vietnam reestablished the prize. The 2003 Law of Emulation again renewed it..[2][3]
