Add criteria to identify low-income workers

Specifically, Decree No. 30/2025/ND-CP stipulates the criteria for identifying low-income workers under the National Target Program on Sustainable Poverty Reduction for the 2021-2025 period as follows:

Low-income workers are workers in households (excluding workers in poor households and near-poor households):

- Rural areas: Average monthly income per capita is from 2,250,000 VND or less.

Decree 30/2025/ND-CP clearly states that the standards for poor households, near-poor households, households with average living standards, and criteria for identifying low-income workers under the National Target Program on Sustainable Poverty Reduction for the 2021-2025 period are the basis for measuring and monitoring the level of income and basic social service shortages of the people; are the basis for identifying subjects for implementing poverty reduction and social security policies and planning other socio-economic policies for the 2022-2025 period.
