Starting from April 1, 2022, retired and working people will receive 6 great news. See if you can benefit?
First, the pension increase notice will be announced
The 2022 government work report has clearly mentioned that the pensions of retired employees and urban and rural residents will continue to be raised, which is equivalent to the official announcement of the good news of 18 consecutive pension increases.
What retirees are looking forward to most now is the pension increase in 2022. The increase will directly determine the pension benefits of retirees. As usual, after the conclusion of the two sessions, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and the Ministry of Finance will issue a pension adjustment notice at the end of March or mid-to-early April. However, judging from the trends in the past two years and the spread of the epidemic, ’s 2022 pension increase notice will most likely be released in April. Retirees should pay attention to two points. ① The scope of personnel who enjoy the increased benefits are retirees from enterprises and institutions who have completed retirement procedures and received pensions before December 31, 2021; ② The pension increase will start from January 1, 2022, and the previous The balance that has been missed for several months will be repaid to the retiree's account in one lump sum. After receiving the money, be sure to check the accounts.
Second, medical insurance transfer and continuation are more reasonable and convenient for people
In November 2021, the National Medical Insurance Administration and the Ministry of Finance jointly issued a notice on the "Interim Measures for the Transfer and Continuation of Basic Medical Insurance Relationships", further standardizing the procedures for medical insurance transfer and continuation. Subsequently, Shandong Province actively responded to the call, forwarded relevant notices, and required all municipal medical insurance bureaus to formulate implementation details based on local actual conditions. Among them, Jinan City requires that starting from April 1, 2022, employees and flexible employment personnel will participate in the employee basic medical insurance for the first time, and they will enjoy the employee basic medical insurance benefits from the month after the insurance payment is made, and there will be no waiting period for benefits; if If insured employees transfer their medical insurance relationship within the province, they can enjoy medical benefits until the end of the month when they pay in the place of transfer. After the medical insurance is discontinued, if you continue the basic medical insurance relationship within 53 months and pay back the fees during the interrupted payment period, there will be no waiting period for benefits, and the insured person can enjoy the medical insurance benefits in the same month; if the payment is stopped during the period, Those who have paid more than 3 months and paid the medical premiums during the interruption period need to wait until the 5th monthly payment before they can enjoy the medical insurance benefits.
The new approach reduces the impact of discontinuing medical insurance payments, cancels and shortens the waiting period for benefits, and improves employee medical insurance benefits to a certain extent. predicts that more provinces and cities will follow this approach in the future.
Third, some areas have begun to issue high temperature allowance
High temperature allowance is a benefit paid by employers to workers working in high temperature weather environments. According to national regulations, employers arrange for workers to work in high temperature weather (maximum daily temperature) Reaching above 35℃), working in the open air and unable to take effective measures to reduce the temperature of the workplace to below 33℃, high temperature allowances shall be paid to workers.
Due to the large span between the north and the south of our country and the huge climate differences among the 31 provinces, the starting time and time span for issuing high temperature allowances are also different. Among them, the earliest issuance time is Hainan Province, which usually starts on April 1, with a time span of 7 month, ending on October 31st. The payment standard in 2021 is 10 yuan per person per day. After calculation, high temperature workers can receive at least 2,100 yuan in high temperature subsidies a year.
Most other provinces and cities start to pay it in June and continue until September or October. High temperature allowance is legally enforceable and is not a benefit that can be paid or not. Employers cannot refuse to pay it, let alone shorten working hours. as an excuse to lower wages for workers.
Fourth, the minimum wage standards in some cities have been raised.
The minimum wage standards are usually adjusted every 2-3 years. Starting from April 1 this year, at least 2 provinces and cities in my country have raised the minimum wage standards. Among them, Fujian Province has adjusted its minimum wage standards. The minimum wage standard for the next month will retain four levels, namely 2,030 yuan, 1,960 yuan, 1,810 yuan, and 1,660 yuan; Chongqing's minimum wage standard will implement a two-level system. After the increase, the two levels will be 2,100 yuan/month and 2,000 yuan/month respectively. .The highest grades have exceeded the threshold of 2,000 yuan. After the minimum wage is raised, the beneficiaries are not only practitioners in public welfare positions, assembly line workers, low-level sales and other groups who receive basic wages according to the minimum wage standards. In addition, in line with the minimum wage standards The related minimum payment base of the provident fund, unemployment insurance, overtime wages, probation period wages, and living allowance standards during the period when the unit is suspended from work and production will be increased accordingly. In order to ensure that the benefits of the minimum wage increase can be implemented for every low-income earner, the human resources and social security departments and people from all walks of life must actively supervise and improve the execution capabilities of enterprises. The state should take severe measures against companies that refuse to comply.
Fifth, Sichuan adjusts the medical insurance benefits for employees at the provincial level
The Sichuan Provincial Medical Insurance Bureau issued a notice, deciding that starting from April 1, 2022, will adjust the medical insurance benefits for employees at the provincial level Within a calendar year, the basic medical care for employees at the provincial level The maximum payment limit of the insurance pooling fund is determined based on 6 times the average salary of employees in all urban units in Chengdu in the previous year. At present, the average wage in 2021 has not been released, and according to Chengdu Municipal Bureau of Statistics data, the average salary of all employees in urban units in Chengdu in 2020 is 83,556 yuan, so the provincial employee medical insurance reimbursement limit in 2022 is at least 501,336 yuan. Due to economic development, the average wage rises every year, so the actual annual reimbursement limit is greater than this number;
In addition to the increase in the employee medical insurance reimbursement limit, voluntarily participating in supplementary medical insurance and completing the payment within the specified time, a natural During the year, the annual maximum payment limit of supplementary medical insurance was adjusted to 400,000 yuan per person.
