00:00 As you know, many workers are asking for a raise.
00:03 Why is the salary not rising?
00:05 When will it rise?
00:06 The government has given you an answer to this question.
00:10 In order to ensure that the salary of employees can be raised with the cost of living,
00:14 it is also relatively increased.
00:15 Lafite, the Minister of Economy,
00:17 proposed the Progressive New Cash Policy White Paper at the Congressional Hospital today.
00:22 What is it for?
00:23 The government will issue cash rewards
00:27 to help these companies adjust the salary of employees.
00:31 New employees get at most 200 RMB per month,
00:33 and old employees get 300 RMB per month.
00:35 This is valid for 12 months.
00:37 All employees who have exceeded 1,500 RMB to 4,999 RMB
00:42 are eligible for this.
00:44 According to estimates, there will be about 4 million beneficiaries.
00:48 Lafite emphasized that
00:49 the Progressive New Cash Policy White Paper
00:52 is mainly for local companies
00:54 to register and apply voluntarily.
00:57 Especially small and medium-sized enterprises,
00:59 but not government-related companies or multinational companies.
01:03 Companies that want to register must meet the following conditions.
01:06 First, they must register with the Danish Company Committee,
01:08 the Group Registration Office, local government, or other units.
01:12 Second, the employee who gets the reward must be a Danish citizen.
01:17 Third, they must be a full-time employee
01:19 with a contract of employment or service for more than three years.
01:22 Fourth, the salary of employees who participate must not exceed 5,000 RMB.
01:26 Fifth, the employer must submit the salary information online.
01:31 Lafite explained that the government has set these conditions
01:34 mainly because most of the low-paid employees
01:38 are from small and medium-sized enterprises.
01:40 He also understands that
01:41 many bosses are still adapting to the lowest salary system.
01:46 So now the government is introducing a progressive salary system.
01:49 This policy may make the bosses worry about further weakening their competitiveness.
01:53 So the minister emphasized that
01:54 the current policy is voluntary, not forced.
01:59 It is expected that it will not have much impact on the economy.
02:02 Lafite pointed out that
02:03 the government will issue awards in a first-come, first-served manner.
02:07 And this progressive salary system
02:09 will start a pilot program in June next year.
02:14 The government will allocate 30 million RMB
02:16 to 1,000 private companies participating in the pilot program,
02:19 including small and medium-sized enterprises to provide cash awards.
02:24 Lafite said that
02:25 the pilot program will start in September next year
02:28 and will be implemented voluntarily.
02:30 He has also informed the Malaysia Employment Union
02:33 that it will open registration in April next year.
02:35 At a press conference in the National Assembly Hall,
02:37 the media asked
02:39 if the minister was confident
02:41 that the minister would respond to the request
02:45 of the government to start the pilot program.
02:48 Lafite said he was confident
02:50 that the employers would participate.
02:51 And this plan is a first-come, first-served matter.
02:54 He was also worried that
02:55 the bosses would be too brave and responsive,
02:58 and too many people would participate.
02:59 This may cause problems.
