EHS & Sustainability Landscape in Vietnam


Vietnam’s environmental and occupational safety requirements are governed by national legislation and implemented through ministries and provincial People’s Committees. For organisations operating manufacturing facilities, energy projects, or industrial operations, compliance may involve environmental approvals, emissions and waste controls, occupational safety obligations under the Occupational Safety and Hygiene Law, and requirements linked to the Labour Code.


Regulatory oversight is led by:



  • Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MONRE) — Environmental protection and pollution control regulations

  • Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs (MOLISA) — Occupational safety and labour-related requirements

  • Provincial People’s Committees and Departments — Permitting, licensing, and administrative supervision

  • Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HOSE) and Hanoi Stock Exchange (HNX) — Disclosure requirements for listed entities


Application of these requirements often involves both ministry-level rules and provincial administrative processes, particularly within industrial zones and project-based developments.


The Vietnam EHS Legal Register consolidates applicable environmental, occupational safety, and selected sustainability regulatory requirements into a practical reference to support consistent compliance management across regions.
