Abstract:
In the context of deepening international integration, the requirement for the quality of Vietnamese human resources is to prepare the workforce to be able to meet and benefit from international commitments. Although, Vietnam is in the golden population period with an abundant and stable labor supply, but the integration trend has also put Vietnam in front of many new opportunities and challenges. The integration trend will lead to a very high competitiveness in the human resource market, while the readiness level of Vietnamese workers is still slow. Competition between Vietnam and other countries in the world in providing high-quality labor is increasing, requiring the quality of workers to be significantly improved in the direction of approaching regional and world standards. Faced with that fact, the issue of improving the quality of labor resources with high productivity, intelligence and creativity in order to promptly meet the growth requirements of the economy is of great interest to the State and Vietnamese enterprises. This is an important element of the foundation for sustainable development and increasing national competitive advantage, a breakthrough in the strategy of transforming the country’s socio-economic development model.

1. Make a problem
Proactivity and creativity are inherent attributes of human in social life. It is the enthusiasm, enthusiasm and determination of employees in meaningful activities to promote the development and progress of society. The initiative and creativity of employees is expressed as: spirit of enthusiasm, enthusiasm, determination, initiative and creativity of people in the working process. With the initiative and creativity of employees, it will have a great impact on work efficiency, and is an important measure to evaluate the quality of human resources. The current human resource situation is difficult to allow to make the best use of the opportunities that are coming to the country. Therefore, if the problem of improving the quality of human resources cannot be solved in the near future, Vietnam will face the risk of a crisis in the quality of human resources, the consequence of which is a decrease in competitiveness; difficult to escape from the “middle income trap”; lost the opportunity to participate in the international labor market.
In the period of deep international integration, labor movement between countries takes place frequently. Vietnamese workers must gradually improve to adapt and compete with international workers, and the issue of promoting the initiative and creativity of Vietnamese workers becomes more and more urgent (Mai Quoc Dung, 2021). Therefore, doing research to properly assess the activeness and creativity of employee today and then propose some recommendations to improve the initiative and creativity of employees, contributing to improving the quality of human resources, meeting the requirements of the national renewal process.
2. The initiative and creativity of Vietnamese workers today
2.1. Some advantages
The spirit of mastering labor, self-employment and trying to organize jobs in a reasonable way: With creative nature, flexibility and quick adaptation when moving from a centralized, bureaucratic, inclusive economy transitioning to a socialist-oriented market economy, Vietnamese workers quickly gained new perceptions, including awareness of employment. Workers have actively organized jobs in many different forms. They themselves are free to conduct contracts with state, collective and private units according to the law. They opened many professions and organized production facilities, which attracted the social labor force. This is an activity of great socio-economic significance. On the one hand, they actively participate in the economic development of the country, on the other hand, they actively contribute to solving pressing social problems that are labor and employment for workers.
