Merge research institutes into universities
According to the proposed plan to reorganize the Ministry of Industry and Trade in the coming time, two research institutes under the Ministry will be merged into two universities. One of them is to merge the Institute of Oil and Oil Plants Research into the Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade.
Accordingly, the Ministry of Industry and Trade requires the two units to disseminate and thoroughly grasp the resolutions, announcements, and plans for the arrangement of public service units under the Ministry in 2024-2025 to ensure streamlining the apparatus, reducing focal points, and improving quality and efficiency of operations.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade assigned Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade to preside over and coordinate with the Institute of Oil and Oil Plants Research and functional departments under the ministry to organize the development of a project to merge the institute into the university, ensuring compliance with legal regulations.
Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade has completed the draft project to merge the Institute of Oil and Oil Plants Research into Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade. Before the merger, Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade had 789 employees, of which the teaching staff accounted for over 73%. Meanwhile, the Institute of Oil and Oil Plants Research had 40 employees.
The principle of the draft project is to merge all functions, tasks, powers, along with all human resources, assets, rights, obligations and legal interests from the Institute of Oil and Oil Plants Research to Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade. Accordingly, all functional departments of the institute will be merged into the corresponding functional departments of the university and the current organizational structure of the university will be maintained. The institute is a public science and technology organization under the university, a dependent accounting unit, with incomplete legal status, its own seal and separate account to operate and transact according to the provisions of law.
A notable content in the reorganization process is to ensure the rights of employees. Accordingly, after the merger, Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade will employ all cadres, civil servants, and employees of the institute. Personnel who have not yet met the training level according to the professional and technical standards prescribed for the job position they are holding but do not have another suitable job position to arrange and cannot be arranged for retraining to standardize their professional and technical skills will be resolved with the policy of reducing the payroll according to Decree No. 178/2024/ND-CP dated December 31, 2024 of the Government.
The draft plan also outlines a plan to ensure the rights of staff, civil servants and workers. The school will accept all staff from the institute and arrange jobs suitable to each person's expertise, capacity and experience, ensuring that there is no major disruption in current work. The salary, allowances and benefits that employees currently receive at the institute will be maintained after the merger with the school.
Non-management staff with a master's degree or higher who meet the requirements for university teaching are transferred to the lecturer position or equivalent, and are allowed to work at the institute and at the school; priority is given to arranging time for scientific research and participating in teaching internships or teaching assistants; the school creates conditions and supports funding to continue studying to improve qualifications. During the internship period, lecturers only perform a maximum of 50% of the standard teaching hours, while reducing scientific research tasks to save time for attending classes, teaching assistants, and participating in internships and practice. The maximum duration of teaching or teaching assistant internships is 2 years.
Employees who do not meet the requirements for university level training will be assigned to participate in scientific research projects with the institute and work in laboratories, practice rooms or units suitable for their professional expertise. The school will support and create maximum conditions for employees to improve their qualifications and arrange new jobs after completing the training program.
Also according to the draft project to merge the two units of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, in case an employee has tried to adapt to the new job after the merger but after a maximum of 24 months still finds the job unsuitable, he/she will be arranged to another job (maximum change once) or a staff reduction policy will be implemented to ensure the employee's rights.
