- Priority is given to signing professional contracts in public service units.

Regarding the salary policy, the welfare regime clearly states that every month, talented people will receive an incentive amount equal to 100% of their current salary.

The incentive amount is not used to calculate social insurance and health insurance benefits. The incentive amount is considered and decided by the head of the agency employing talented people and is determined in the regular expenditure estimate and allocated to agencies, organizations, units, and localities according to the provisions of the Law on State Budget.
