Binh Duong Province is one of the regions with very significant population and labor force growth. The development and transformation of the labor structure have positively contributed to the province's labor productivity growth and economic growth, while at the same time contributing to the development of Vietnam in general. This paper combines descriptive statistics, comparisons, contrasts, and trend assessments to identify the characteristics, changes, and transitions in the labor structure of Binh Duong Province from 2015 to 2023. The results show a sustained increase in population and labor force; the labor structure has moved significantly away from the agricultural sector; demand for technical and assembly workers increased sharply; the number of service and sales workers steadily increased and became mainstream. The challenge for Binh Duong Province is that while the group of highly skilled workers is growing, the increase is not evenly distributed; the group of highly skilled professionals is growing rapidly while the group of intermediate-level professionals and secretaries is declining due to replacement by technology.
