Information related to the implementation of salary policy reform has received much attention from readers.
The Ministry of Home Affairs said that Resolution No. 27-NQ/TW on reforming salary policies for cadres, civil servants, public employees, armed forces and employees in enterprises stipulates specific factors for designing new salary scales, expanding salary relations as a basis for determining specific salary levels in the salary scale system.
At the same time, according to Conclusion No. 64-KL/TW and Resolution No. 104/2023/QH15, the Ministry of Home Affairs has chaired and coordinated with relevant ministries and agencies to report to competent authorities on the implementation of 6 salary reform contents according to Resolution No. 27-NQ/TW from July 1, 2024.
However, in the process of implementation, many problems and inadequacies arose. Accordingly, the Politburo issued Conclusion No. 83-KL/TW; the National Assembly issued Resolution No. 142/2024/QH15 and the Government issued Decree No. 73/2024/ND-CP adjusting the base salary from 1.8 million VND/month to 2.34 million VND/month (an increase of 30%) from July 1, 2024 for cadres, civil servants, public employees and armed forces.
The above-mentioned adjustment of the base salary level is a great effort of the Central Government, the National Assembly, and the Government to contribute to improving the lives of pensioners, creating motivation and improving labor productivity to stabilize society" - the Ministry of Home Affairs stated clearly.
In Conclusion No. 83-KL/TW, the Politburo assigned the Central Economic Committee (now the Central Policy and Strategy Committee) to preside over the preliminary review of Resolution No. 27-NQ/TW.
In which, the Party Committee of the Ministry of Home Affairs will coordinate with relevant departments, ministries, and branches to study and evaluate the suitability, feasibility and propose the implementation of 5 salary scales and 9 new allowance regimes of the public sector to be appropriate for submission to the Central Government for consideration in 2026 when the Politburo promulgates and implements the List of job positions in the political system.
Previously, Resolution No. 27-NQ/TW dated May 21, 2018 of the 7th Plenum of the 12th Central Committee stipulated 5 salary scales including: 3 salary scales for the armed forces; 1 salary scale for leadership positions (elected, appointed) in state agencies, public non-business units and 1 salary scale for professional and nghiệp vụ (professional) qualifications for civil servants and public employees in state agencies and public non-business units.
Also according to Resolution 27-NQ/TW in 2018, there are 9 types of allowances according to the new salary regime, including: concurrent position allowance; seniority allowance exceeding the frame; regional allowance; work responsibility allowance; mobile allowance; professional preferential allowance; work allowance in areas with particularly difficult socio-economic conditions; allowance according to the classification of administrative units and according to the classification of public non-business units; allowance applied specifically to the armed forces.
Based on the goals and tasks approved by the 14th National Party Congress, socio-economic and financial development plans for the next 5 years, socio-economic conditions and the capacity of the State budget, the Ministry of Home Affairs will report to competent authorities for consideration and proposal of a salary regime to be appropriate according to the roadmap in Conclusion No. 83-KL/TW.
