Social insurance contribution level for non-professional commune-level officials
The Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs has just issued a document to answer questions about compulsory social insurance contributions for part-time workers in communes, wards and towns at the request of Vietnam Social Security.
Accordingly, Clause 1, Article 89 of the Law on Social Insurance stipulates that the monthly salary for social insurance contributions for non-professional workers in communes, wards and towns is the basic salary.

However, currently, some localities are implementing compulsory social insurance payments for non-professional workers in communes, wards and towns based on the allowance received which is different from the basic salary (equal to 800,000 VND/month; 0.9 times or 1.2 times the basic salary), which is not in accordance with the provisions of the Law on Social Insurance.
Therefore, the Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs requests that Vietnam Social Security direct provincial and municipal Social Security agencies to proactively coordinate with People's Committees of communes, wards and towns and local authorities to pay and collect social insurance for part-time workers in communes, wards and towns in accordance with the provisions of the Law on Social Insurance.
