According to the submission of the Ministry of Home Affairs, the draft Law amends regulations to connect cadres and civil servants at the commune level with the provincial level, unifying a civil service regime from the central to the commune level.

In addition, the draft Law amends, supplements and clarifies a number of contents related to job positions, job position system, classification of job position contents and basis for determining job positions.

Notably, the Ministry of Home Affairs said that related to the provisions of the Law on Cadres and Civil Servants (amended), there will be expenses and funding sources. Of which, it is expected that there will be funding to resolve policies for commune-level cadres and civil servants who do not meet the requirements of their job positions.

The estimated budget expenditure from the State budget of about 15,000 billion VND has been calculated and arranged in the budget for implementing the arrangement of administrative units at all levels.

The above proposal aims to address about 7.6% (equivalent to more than 16,150 people) who do not meet the standards out of a total of 212,606 commune-level cadres and civil servants, according to statistics as of December 31, 2024.

In the draft Law on Cadres and Civil Servants (amended), the Ministry of Home Affairs also proposed transitional provisions for commune-level cadres and civil servants.

Specifically, commune-level cadres and civil servants elected or recruited before the effective date of this draft Law shall be converted into cadres and civil servants according to the provisions of this draft Law and shall remain in the same number until the completion of the review, streamlining, restructuring and arrangement according to job positions according to the new regulations.

In addition, this group will retain their current salary until they are assigned new jobs according to Government regulations.

Within 3 years, provinces and centrally-run cities must arrange, streamline and restructure their staff according to the approved job position plan. The transition for this staff is carried out according to Government regulations.

Within 3 years from the effective date of this Law, the following shall be implemented:

Agencies must complete the construction and approval of job positions to fully implement the provisions of this draft Law.

During this period, Government regulations on recruitment, employment and management of civil servants continue to be implemented until the approval of job positions is completed.

Salary regime (including salary allowances) and bonuses applicable to cadres and civil servants shall be implemented according to regulations until the new salary regime according to job position is implemented.

The Government promulgates a new salary regime according to job position and implements the conversion of salaries of cadres and civil servants according to ranks and grades to salaries according to job position on the basis of inheriting the salary levels already enjoyed, creating motivation to improve labor productivity and work efficiency of cadres and civil servants.

The regulations on ranks of specialized laws shall continue to be implemented until the competent authority has new regulations in accordance with the job position system.

Compared to the draft submitted to the Ministry of Justice for appraisal, the revised Law on Cadres and Civil Servants submitted to the Government this time has adjusted the implementation time for arranging, streamlining and restructuring the team according to the approved job position project to 3 years instead of 5 years.
