In which cases is early retirement not allowed according to Decree 178?

The Ministry of Home Affairs has just issued an official dispatch guiding the implementation of Decree 178 and Decree 67 on policies and regimes for cadres and civil servants... in the implementation of organizational restructuring.

In this guide, the Ministry of Home Affairs also outlines cases that are not eligible for early retirement policies. Specifically:

+ Managers are not subject to direct rearrangement; if their agencies or units are not directly rearranged, even though the number of deputies may be less than the regulations, they are still not subject to early retirement.

+ Employees who have terminated their old contracts and signed new contracts after January 15, 2019, even if their old contracts were signed before that time, re-signing the contract after this time will make them ineligible for the policy.

+ Employees who meet the requirements of seniority in heavy, toxic, dangerous work or work in particularly difficult areas, reach retirement age and have paid social insurance for 20 years shall retire according to the Law on Social Insurance and shall not be eligible for early retirement policy due to streamlining the apparatus.

Decree 178 was issued by the Government at the end of December 2024, stipulating policies for cadres, civil servants, public employees, workers and armed forces when restructuring the apparatus. Accordingly, people who are up to 10 years old (normal conditions) or 5 years old (particularly difficult areas) from the maximum retirement age and have paid compulsory social insurance for a sufficient period of time will enjoy three support regimes when retiring early.

Thus, according to the latest guidance, the above cases do not fall under the category of early retirement under Decree 178.
