In the period of 2012 - 2017, the emulation movement "Creative Labor" among workers and civil servants was welcomed, responded to and widely deployed by trade unions at all levels in all sectors and fields in Nghe An province.
Typically, during this period, the whole province had 95 scientific and technological innovations that won awards and were awarded Certificates of Merit by the Provincial People's Committee, in which the Provincial Labor Federation selected and proposed the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor to award Certificates of Creative Labor to 53 individuals.
However, the movement's implementation still has some limitations: The number of innovative topics applied in practice and with beneficial value is still limited. Many individuals write topics and initiatives only aiming to achieve emulation titles and awards, without taking into account practical factors and solving the demanding job requirements.

In the business sector, most grassroots unions have not really paid attention to launching and organizing the "Creative Labor" emulation movement. Therefore, the number of workers and engineers working in businesses who have been awarded is not much.
Some industry unions and district-level Labor Federations do not have individuals awarded the "Creative Labor" certificate by the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor.
