When a public employee completes his/her probation period and obtains a decision of a public employee management authority on title appointment, he/she shall have his/her salary graded as follows:

a) The holder of a doctorate degree in social work shall be entitled to grade 3 and salary coefficient of 3.00 of a grade III social worker (code: V.09.04.02);

b) The holder of a master degree in social work shall be entitled to grade 2 and salary coefficient of 2.67 of a grade III social worker (code: V.09.04.02);

c) The holder of an associate degree in social work shall be entitled to grade 2 and salary coefficient of 2.06 of a grade IV social worker (code: V.09.04.03).

3. The salary grading specified in Clause 1 of this Article shall comply with the Decision No. 08/2010/TT-BNV dated August 25, 2010, Decision No. 204/2004/ND-CP dated December 14, 2004 and Government’s Decree No. 17/2013/ND-CP dated February 19, 2013. To be specific:

a) In case a public employee is eligible to be appointed to a social worker to which the same salary coefficient applies shall receive the same salary and extra-seniority allowances (if any) (including the time for considering an increase in salary scale for the next time or entitlement to extra-seniority allowance (if any)).

Example: Mr. Nguyen Van A was appointed as a social worker (code 24.292) and applied the salary coefficient of 2.66 from February 01, 2013. He is now eligible to be appointed as a grade III social worker (V.09.04.02) and is applied the salary coefficient of 3.66 from the date on which the decision on appointment is signed. The period that serves as the basis for pay raise begins from February 01, 2013.

To be specific: If determined from salary grade 2 of a social worker, after a period of 02 years (24 full months), the public employee will receive a raise of 01 salary grade (if there is an interrupted period of time for social insurance payout has not yet been paid, he/she shall receive an accumulated amount). In case of failure to complete the assigned tasks or submission to discipline during task performance, the regular time for pay raise shall be extended.

After the salary is transferred and graded into the title of a grade IV social worker mentioned above, if the salary coefficient graded for a grade IV social worker plus the extra-seniority allowance (if any) is lower than the current salary coefficient, the public employee shall receive the retained difference coefficient which is equal to the salary coefficient (including the current extra seniority allowance, if any). The public employee shall receive this retained difference coefficient during the period of time over which he/she receives the salaries paid to a grade IV social worker. After that, if the public employee is promoted, the retained difference coefficient shall be added to his current salary coefficient (including the extra seniority allowance, if any) so that he/she receives the salaries of the appointed position and stops receiving the retained difference coefficient from the date of receiving the salaries of the appointed position.
