The decree will become effective from July 1.

The basic wage will be a basis for calculating salariesof employees in the State-run sector by multiplying it with their correspondingcoefficient. As a result, new graduates entering the State sector will get a salary of Level 1 with a coefficient of 2.34, equivalent to a monthlywage of 3.48 million VND at present.

This is the second base salary hike since July 1, 2019,after a three-year delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
