According to the 2024 performance report of the Ministry of Home Affairs, advising on the implementation of 4/6 tasks on salary policy reform according to Resolution No. 27-NQ/TW of 2018 of the Central Committee is one of the outstanding results of this ministry in 2024.
The breakthrough is the proposal to implement the salary reform policy according to a reasonable, cautious, step-by-step, practical and effective roadmap;
Implement a 30% increase in basic salary (from 1.8 million VND to 2.34 million VND - the highest increase ever) and add 10% bonus to the total basic salary fund for agencies and units in the political system, creating motivation and improving the lives of cadres, civil servants and public employees.
In addition to the 4 tasks that have been implemented, according to Resolution No. 27-NQ/TW, there are still 2 tasks on salary reform that have not been implemented, including: New salary tables (removing the basic salary level and salary coefficient); restructuring and arranging into 9 new allowance regimes.
The Ministry of Home Affairs said these tasks need to continue to be studied and completed step by step, carefully, due to many arising problems.
At the conference to deploy the 2025 Work Program and the first quarter tasks of 2025 of the Ministry of Home Affairs, Minister Pham Thi Thanh Tra outlined a number of key tasks for 2025 and requested heads of units to disseminate them to all civil servants, public employees, and employees of the Ministry of Home Affairs.
Minister Pham Thi Thanh Tra proposed: Implementing the contents of salary policy reform according to Conclusion No. 83-KL/TW dated June 21, 2024 of the Politburo;
Develop a Government report to submit to the National Assembly at the 9th Session (2025) on implementing salary reform, adjusting pensions, social insurance benefits, preferential benefits for people with meritorious services and social benefits.
In the first quarter of 2025, the Minister requested to focus on advising and implementing the tasks of the Government Steering Committee to summarize the implementation of Resolution No. 18-NQ/TW to ensure progress and quality; urge ministries and branches to urgently implement the tasks in Plan No. 141/KH-BCDTKNQ18 and the conclusions of the Prime Minister at the meetings of the Government Steering Committee to summarize the implementation of Resolution No. 18-NQ/TW.
With two tasks yet to be implemented, Conclusion No. 83-KL/TW dated June 21, 2024 of the Politburo on salary reform; adjusting pensions, social insurance benefits, preferential benefits for people with meritorious services and social benefits from July 1, 2024 sets out very clear requirements on progress and the unit in charge of implementation.
In particular, the Politburo requested the Central Organizing Committee to continue to preside over and coordinate with relevant departments, ministries and branches to complete and report to the Politburo through the system of Job Position Lists of cadres, civil servants and public employees in the political system.
The Central Economic Committee is requested to preside over the preliminary review of the implementation of Resolution No. 27-NQ/TW, in which it coordinates with the Party Committee of the Ministry of Home Affairs and relevant ministries, branches and sectors to study and evaluate the suitability, feasibility and propose the implementation of 5 new salary scales and 9 new allowance regimes of the public sector for submission to the Central Committee for consideration after 2026 when the Politburo promulgates and implements the system of Job Position Lists in the political system.
