Most of the current security and order protection team members are former police officers.

According to Resolution No. 04/2024/ND-HDND of the Provincial People's Council, each village and residential group in the province establishes a security and order protection team. In which, villages with 350 households or more, residential groups with 500 households or more, the security and order protection team has 4 members, the remaining villages and residential groups have 3 members.

The remaining villages and residential groups receive support from 1.1 to 1.3 million VND/person/month.

Security and order protection forces are the "extended arms" of a number of specialized forces at the grassroots level.

In addition, members of the security and order protection team are also supported with a portion of voluntary social insurance and health insurance premiums; receive compensation when assigned, dispatched, or mobilized; when performing tasks and falling ill, having an accident, being injured, or dying, are supported with medical examination and treatment costs and daily meals; in case of death from an accident, relatives of members of the security and order protection team are entitled to a pension and funeral allowance.
