Civil servants working at public healthcare facilities appointed to the positions of accountant or professional specialist, assigned work according to the approved job position plan, are entitled to occupational allowances under Decree No. 56/2011/NĐ-CP and Inter-Ministerial Circular No. 02/2012/TTLT-BYT-BNV-BTC.
Clause 2, Article 2 of Inter-Ministerial Circular No. 02/2012/TTLT-BYT-BNV-BTC, dated January 19, 2012, issued by the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Home Affairs, and Ministry of Finance, provides guidance on the implementation of Decree No. 56/2011/NĐ-CP, which defines the scope of application for occupational allowances as follows:
"2. Officials directly engaged in healthcare professions (with a salary classification not starting with the two initial digits of job codes 16 or 13) performing the following tasks:
a) Operation and maintenance of medical equipment;
b) Rearing and cultivation of animals, plants, and experimental insects for medical research purposes;

However, the circular does not specify the provisions for officials directly engaged in healthcare professions (with a salary classification not starting with the two initial digits of job codes 16 or 13) performing the tasks stipulated in Clause 1, Article 2 of the circular.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Linh (Gia Lai) inquired about the occupational allowance entitlement for officials directly engaged in healthcare professions (with a salary classification not starting with the two initial digits of job codes 16 or 13) who are performing their duties.
