Removing staffing constraints and unleashing intellectual potential.

The most significant and groundbreaking change in this draft decree compared to current regulations on the selection and employment of officials is that it has "broken down" the staffing barrier to attract high-quality talent. This is the biggest change, allowing state agencies to sign labor contracts to attract outstanding managers, business administrators, entrepreneurs, along with leading lawyers, experts, and scientists in their respective fields.

These individuals are not on the assigned staff of the agency, organization, or unit... Not only experts, but also those contracted to hold leadership and management positions in areas such as: drafting legal documents; programs, projects, and proposals related to economics , science and technology, innovation; digital transformation, and the development of artificial intelligence... for a specific period. Signing contracts for these positions is not an "appointment," and those invited to sign the contracts do not need to meet the specific standards and conditions of the corresponding leadership or management positions.

The funding for signing contracts under this draft decree is guaranteed by the state budget, but the breakthrough lies in its inclusion outside the salary fund and the allocated administrative expenses of agencies, organizations, and units. This helps address situations where actual needs exceed allocated funds, or where there is insufficient regular funding to ensure contract signing.

The draft decree also clarifies that this form of employment contract should not be used as a substitute for civil servant recruitment. It is merely a supplementary, flexible mechanism to address unforeseen and urgent tasks. Specifically, employment contracts will have a fixed term, not exceeding 24 months for employment contracts (for leadership, management, and professional positions) and not exceeding 36 months for service contracts.

It is clear that, once finalized and promulgated, this decree is an important step, concretizing the resolutions of the Politburo and the Government on attracting and utilizing talented individuals; unleashing their intellectual potential to serve important national tasks without creating a burden of fixed staffing and maintaining the autonomy of state agencies.

These changes represent a major breakthrough, reflecting a shift in thinking regarding the management and utilization of human resources in the public sector, aiming to optimize operational efficiency and adaptability to increasingly complex and specialized job requirements in the new era.
