Without basic salary and salary coefficient, how is teacher salary calculated?
According to point c, clause 3.1, item 2 of Resolution 27-NQ/TW in 2018, the 5 new salary tables are designed based on the following factors:
Abolish the current basic salary and salary coefficient, build the basic salary with a specific amount in the new salary table.
Unify the labor contract regime according to the provisions of the 2019 Labor Code (or service provision contracts) for those doing executive and service work (requiring training level below intermediate level), not applying the salary scale of civil servants and public employees to these subjects.
The lowest salary level for civil servants and public employees in the public sector is determined to be the salary level for those doing jobs requiring intermediate training (level 1) not lower than the lowest salary level for trained workers in the business sector.
Expanding the salary relationship as a basis for determining specific salary levels in the payroll system.
Complete the regular salary increase regime and early salary increase for cadres, civil servants, public employees and armed forces in accordance with the provisions of the new salary table.
Accordingly, if the current basic salary and salary levels are abolished, the entire new salary table of teachers from kindergarten to high school who are civil servants in 2025 will be replaced by the basic salary level.
Will teachers' salaries increase in 2025?
Resolution 159/2024/QH15 on the State budget estimate for 2025 was voted and approved by the National Assembly at the 8th session in 2024. Article 3 of this resolution stipulates as follows:
No increase in public sector salaries, pensions, social insurance benefits, monthly allowances, and preferential allowances for meritorious people in 2025.
Ministries, central and local agencies continue to implement solutions to create sources for salary policy reform as prescribed. Allow to continue to exclude some revenue items when calculating the increase in local budget revenue for salary reform as prescribed in Clause 2, Article 3 of Resolution No. 34/2021/QH15 dated November 13, 2021 of the National Assembly.
Allow localities to use the remaining salary reform funds to invest in regional and national connectivity projects, and key national projects implemented locally according to regulations of competent authorities in cases where the locality has a large surplus, commits to ensuring funding for salary reform and implementing social security policies issued by the Central Government for the entire roadmap until 2030 and does not request support from the central budget.
Accordingly, in the resolution on the State budget estimate for 2025, the National Assembly decided not to increase salaries for those in the public sector. Therefore, it is agreed that the salaries of teachers and civil servants will not be adjusted to increase in 2025.
