Reader N.T. B asked: I am subject to streamlining staff according to Clause 4, Article 2 of Decree No. 154/2025/ND-CP dated June 15, 2025 of the Government.

According to point c, clause 1, Article 9 of Decree No. 154/2025/ND-CP dated June 15, 2025 of the Government, I am entitled to the following benefits:

Being entitled to a one-time allowance equal to 0.8 times the current monthly allowance multiplied by 60 months.

Being entitled to an allowance equal to 1.5 times the current monthly allowance for each year of work.

Receiving a 3-month monthly allowance currently enjoyed to find a job.

Being allowed to preserve the time of compulsory social insurance contribution or enjoying one-time social insurance benefits according to the provisions of the law on social insurance.

Based on the time to calculate my regime, it is applied according to Clause 5, Article 5 of Decree No. 154/2025/ND-CP dated June 15, 2025 of the Government.

“5. The working time for calculating allowances specified in Clause 1, Article 9 of this Decree is the total working time in the title of non-specialized worker at the commune level and the working time with compulsory social insurance contributions in other job positions”.

From November 25, 2016 to October 1, 2025, I was a non-specialized worker at the commune level, holding the position of Deputy Commander of the Military Command of Lien Mac commune (old).
