Guidance on Calculation and Entitlement of Special Allowances for Educators

The calculation and entitlement to the monthly special allowance for teachers who teach integrated courses; teachers who teach practical sessions and hold one of the following titles, certificates, or certifications or higher: distinguished artisan, national occupational skills certificate level 4, certification of worker grade 5/6, 6/7 issued by a competent authority, are guided as follows:

Special Allowance = {[Salary coefficient according to grade, rank, level + current leadership position allowance coefficient, seniority allowance beyond the frame (if any)] x Statutory pay rate} / (Lecture hour norm of the teacher in one year / 12 months) x Actual number of integrated teaching, practical teaching hours in the month x 10%

Example: Teacher A is the head of the department, teaching integrated courses at a college; current salary coefficient is 4.98; leadership position allowance coefficient is 0.45; current seniority allowance beyond the frame is 5%; statutory pay rate is 1,300,000 VND; lecture hour norm of the teacher in one year is 450 hours; actual number of integrated teaching hours in the month is 20 hours. The special allowance that Teacher A will receive monthly is calculated as follows:

Special Allowance = [(4.98 + 0.45 + 5% x 4.98) x 1,300,000 VND] / (450 hours / 12 months) x 20 hours x 10% = 393,744 VND.
