Labour lawsuit brought against Vietnam Cinema chain by expat employee dismissed

A wrongful termination lawsuit raised against Vietnam cinema chain CGV by a British ex-employee has been dismissed by a court in Ho Chi Minh City, VN Express is reporting.

Why it matters: Of particular interest in this case is that it has taken eight years since the court agreed to hear the case for it to actually come before the court. This is something to keep in mind for foreign workers in Vietnam who have disputes with their local employers and are considering litigation. It’s also worth keeping in mind for foreign workers looking to take positions in Vietnam with local firms.
