The Central Executive Committee has just issued an action program to concretize and effectively implement the Resolution of the 14th Party Congress.
In 14 key tasks, the Central Government assigned the task of completing job position projects associated with restructuring and improving the quality of the contingent of cadres, civil servants, and public employees.
Focus on building a contingent of cadres at all levels, especially strategic levels, with sufficient qualities, capacity and prestige, on par with the tasks.
The completion of the job position project associated with the requirement to restructure the contingent of cadres, civil servants, and public employees is a content that is attracting the attention of a large number of cadres, civil servants, and public employees nationwide because this content is closely linked to the content of salary ranking in salary policy reform.
The goal is to reduce at least 5% of civil servant payroll and 10% of non-business payroll paid from the state budget by 2026, along with restructuring and improving the quality of the contingent of civil servants and public employees. At the same time, it is necessary to overcome the situation of mechanical and egalitarian payroll reduction, ensuring the arrangement of payroll suitable for each type, organizational model as well as each specific area.
Over the past time, the 2-level government apparatus in localities has basically ensured quantity and quality, and the contingent of cadres, civil servants, and public employees has been gradually standardized.
The functions and tasks of agencies and units have basically been reviewed and adjusted accordingly; administrative discipline and order have been strengthened, and state management tasks have been transferred, decentralized, and more clearly defined in terms of authority and responsibility.
The organizational structure of the local government at 2 levels across the country has been effective, showing the spirit of solidarity, proactiveness, adaptability and drastic action of the entire political system.
Recently, the National Assembly passed the Law on Organization of the Government, the Law on Organization of Local Government, the Law on Cadres and Civil Servants and the draft amended Law on Public Employees. The completion of relevant draft laws has created the best legal environment and corridor for convenient operation of 2-level local governments.
At the closing press conference of the 1st Government Party Congress, term 2025-2030, leaders of the Ministry of Home Affairs said that in the implementation of 2-level local government, the decisive factor is still people - the team of cadres, civil servants, and public employees in the apparatus.
Leaders of the Ministry of Home Affairs clearly stated that it is necessary to focus on streamlining, but at the same time, there must be specific measures to restructure according to job positions, improve the quality of the contingent of officials, in order to meet the requirements of the State administration and local authorities at 2 levels.
Units drastically complete, classify administrative units, and classify urban areas to serve as a basis for determining job positions and determining the number of staff working in the apparatus.
Another task is to focus on strong administrative procedure reform, reducing and simplifying administrative procedures to better serve people and businesses, for the country's goal of creating development and serving the people.
Focus on applying science and technology, innovation, and digital transformation. This is a fundamental issue, because a modern, efficient, effective, and efficient administration must pay attention to this issue, promote the application of digital government, digital citizens, and digital society, to improve efficiency and reduce staffing.
Implementing this policy, Can Tho City is reviewing and restructuring the civil servant team of communes and wards to ensure they are suitable for their expertise, nghiệp vụ and job positions that have been identified.
Meanwhile, the People's Committee of Dong Nai province also requested the People's Committees of communes and wards to continue to pay attention to, arrange, and arrange appropriately and stably, ensuring the right job positions, professional qualifications, and fully meeting the standards according to the provisions of law.
The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Home Affairs determined that 2026 is a pivotal year to complete the arrangement of the organizational structure, improve the effectiveness and efficiency of state management, and meet the development requirements of the city in the new period.
