OUR POLICIES

 OUR POLICIES

Toan Thang Massage parlor came into being in miraculous circumstances. But for the wholehearted support of our patrons, together with dedicated efforts on the part of the employees, our parlor would not have overcome initial setbacks.

It is the feeling of being indebted to this encouragement, and that urge to root out their own inferiority complex, which move our employees to seek a job of their own.  

Mrs. Le Thi Dieu Qui - owner of the parlor - let her employees enjoy all the profits that the parlor could make, by putting the sum aside as a common fund, which is officially declared and detailed in every month. 

We are committed to making our facilities and service better, and to replicating this model of ours across the country. 

Apart from regulations hitherto prescribed, we also offer the following benefits to our staff: 

  • A grant will be given to support the representative, whose job is to represent the blind masseurs and masseuses at the parlor, and to supervise the observation of the parlor’s regulations.
  • Blind masseurs and masseuses who have worked at the parlor for at least two years will be granted an amount of 5,000,000 dong per each, with an annual interest amount of 200,000 dong. The same policy applies to the the rest of the employees who have worked at the parlor for at least four years. The money will be given to the employees upon their leaving the parlor. However, while working at the parlor, should they be in need, employees can take out at most 50% of their deposited money.
  • On Lunar New Year, each of the employee will receive a share of the parlor’s profits (actual amount is based on profits made in the previous year).
  • The minimum wage for each masseur/masseuse is 1.750.000 dong/month. Should they earn less than this amount, then the parlor will offer compensations so that the employee can earn the minimum amount of salary. It should be noted, however, that the employee has to abide by the prescribed regulations on workday. 
  • Should an employee meet with some mishaps which render him/her unable to work on that day, he or she will receive a support amount of  30.000 dong/day.
  • For each of the massage ticket sold, the employee will earn 40% of its worth, should the massage take place at the parlor. If he/she is giving belly massage, or should there be power failure, or the massage is given in extra hours, or that the employee is giving in-home massage , he/she will earn 50% of the ticket’s worth.
  • On maternity leave, the female employee will receive a support amount of 6.000.000 dong. Those pregnant with twins will receive an amount of 10.000.000 dong. The male employee whose wife is pregnant receives an amount of 1.000.000 dong. Should the spouses both work at the parlor, each of them is entitled to their individual bonus.
  • Should a close family member of an employee fall ill, there will be a grant which ranges from 300.000 to 500.000 dong per case (the amount may vary as situation requires).
