Increase allowances for part-time commune-level workers

Accordingly, part-time workers at the commune level are entitled to allowances. The central budget allocates an allowance fund including social insurance and health insurance contributions to pay monthly to part-time workers at the commune level as follows:

- Type I commune-level administrative units are allocated an allowance fund equal to 21.0 times the basic salary;

(Currently in Decree 92/2009/ND-CP (amended in Decree 34/2019/ND-CP) equal to 16.0 times the basic salary.)

- Type II commune-level administrative units are allocated an allowance fund equal to 18.0 times the basic salary;

(Currently 13.7 times the base salary.)

- Type III commune-level administrative units are allocated an allowance fund equal to 15.0 times the basic salary.

(Currently 11.4 times the base salary.)

For commune-level administrative units with an increase in the number of non-professional workers at the commune level as prescribed in Clause 2, Article 33 of Decree 33/2023/ND-CP, the total allowance fund amount is calculated to increase by 1.5 times the basic salary/01 additional non-professional worker.

Increase the number of part-time workers at the commune level in densely populated areas

According to Clause 1 and Clause 2, Article 33 of Decree 33/2023/ND-CP, the number of non-professional workers at the commune level is stipulated as follows:

- The number of non-professional workers at the commune level is calculated according to the type of commune-level administrative unit, specifically as follows:

+ Type I is 14 people;

+ Type II is 12 people;

+ Type III is 10 people.

- The People's Committee at the provincial level shall base on the number of commune-level administrative units with population size and natural area larger than the standards prescribed in the Resolution of the National Assembly Standing Committee on standards of administrative units and classification of administrative units to calculate the number of additional non-professional workers at the commune level as follows:

+ Wards in districts that increase by 1/3 (one third) of the prescribed population size will be allowed to have 1 more non-professional staff. The remaining commune-level administrative units that increase by 1/2 (one half) of the prescribed population size will be allowed to have 1 more non-professional staff;

+ In addition to increasing the number of non-professional workers according to the population size specified in Point a, Clause 2, Article 33 of Decree 33/2023/ND-CP, for every increase of 100% of the prescribed natural area, the commune-level administrative unit shall be allowed to increase 01 non-professional worker.

(Compared to the current regulations, a regulation has been added to increase the number of non-professional workers at the commune level in localities with a larger population and natural area than the prescribed standards.)
