With the continuous development of China's economy, the development of rural areas has gradually received attention. As an important force in rural grassroots management, village cadres have played a key role in promoting rural development and improving peasants' livelihoods. However, for a long time, the salary of village cadres has been criticized by the general public. However, in recent years, with the state's attention to the income growth of rural residents and the increasing complexity and importance of the work of village cadres, the first salary has been increased and adjusted, and the salaries of village secretaries and village directors have been reformulated.
According to the regulations, the salary of village cadres is mainly composed of basic salary, performance appraisal and subsidies. For areas with better economic development, additional benefits such as transportation or housing subsidies are also provided. There are great differences in the level of economic development and income in different regions, resulting in great differences in the salary standards of village cadres. As an important position among village cadres, the salary standard of village secretary is much higher than that of other positions.
After investigation, it was found that there were differences in the salary standards of village cadres in different regions. In Hebei Province, for example, the salary of village secretaries in most villages is between 4,500 and 6,000 yuan, and can be further increased according to other relevant subsidies to exceed this standard. The salary standard of the village director is equivalent to more than 70% of the salary of the village secretary. It is worth mentioning that in areas with relatively good economic development, especially in some economically developed areas, the salary of village secretaries has exceeded 10,000 yuan, far exceeding the standard in other areas. Therefore, it can be said that there is no upper limit on the salary of village cadres, as long as the income of villagers' families is high enough, the salary of village cadres will continue to increase.
The salary standards for village cadres are mainly based on the average income level of peasant families. Every year, each region publishes the average income standard of villagers' families, which is used as a reference for the salary adjustment of village cadres. The main purpose of such a system design is to ensure that the income levels of village cadres and peasants are relatively balanced. When the income level of peasant families increases, the salaries of village cadres will also be raised accordingly to keep the relative income gap between the two sides too large.
In addition to the average income level of peasant households, some regions will introduce a performance appraisal system to adjust the salary of village cadres. The purpose of performance appraisal is to evaluate and adjust remuneration according to the economic development of the village, the improvement of the farmers' livelihood, and the work performance of the village cadres. Such a system design can encourage village cadres to work harder to promote the development of the village and better serve the farmers.
In addition, some economically developed areas will provide additional transportation or housing subsidies. This increase in rights and interests is also aimed at attracting outstanding village cadres to stay in the local area and further promote the development of rural areas.
In short, the salary standards of village cadres are determined according to the average income level of peasant families, performance appraisal and welfare policies in specific areas, so as to ensure that the income levels of village cadres and farmers are relatively balanced.
Why do we need to improve the salary of village cadres?This is a question that many people are confused about. According to the regulations, village cadres do not belong to the official public servants of the state, and their salaries are not completely borne by the superiors, but partly by the village collective. However, because many village collectives do not have a stable income, the salary of village cadres is borne by the superiors.
In fact, this move is not only a compensation for the lack of rural talents, but also to attract more outstanding talents to join the rural grassroots work. Compared with going out to work to make money, the salary standard of village cadres is still relatively low. Improving salaries and benefits can not only attract more talents to devote themselves to rural grassroots work, but also increase the enthusiasm and sense of responsibility of village cadres.
In addition, the work of village cadres has also played a vital role in promoting economic development in rural areas and improving the livelihood of peasants. They need to deal with all kinds of complex affairs, manage the economic resources of villages, and organize farmers to participate in agricultural industrialization and rural revitalization. Therefore, increasing the salary of village cadres will help improve their work enthusiasm and work efficiency, and promote the development of rural areas.
On the issue of how to improve the salary of village cadres, the first adjustment has been made. The salary standard of village cadres is mainly based on the average income level of peasant families, and also takes into account the work performance of village cadres and the welfare policies of specific areas. In recent years, the salary of village secretaries in some economically developed areas has exceeded 10,000 yuan. The aim of this move is to attract more talents to join the rural grassroots work, stimulate the enthusiasm of village cadres, and promote the development of rural areas. The salary increase is of great significance for the progress of the village, and it is hoped that with the passage of time, the economic level of the rural area and the living standard of the rural residents will be further improved.
