Civil servants and public employees need to know the starting salary in 2020
2020 is expected to be the last year to apply the salary calculation method for officials and civil servants based on the basic salary level and coefficient.
Therefore, the starting salary of civil servants and public employees (CC, VC) will increase due to the adjustment of the basic salary.
According to Decree 204, the salaries of cadres, civil servants, and public employees are calculated according to the formula (salary = Basic salary x Salary coefficient). Meanwhile, the basic salary in 2020 changes as follows: From now until June 30, 2020: 1.49 million VND/month (according to Decree 38/2019/ND-CP); From July 1, 2020: 1.6 million VND/month (according to Resolution 86/2019/QH14).
