The department said bonuses are expected to hit record highs, largely driven by the domestic private sector.
The average bonus in the foreign-invested sector stood at VND4.5 million (US$171) per employee, with the highest bonus reaching US$10,880 and the lowest US$38, based on data from more than 300 companies in Hanoi.
Among state-owned single-member limited liability companies, the highest monthly salary was reported at US$1,770 per employee, while the lowest was US$247 per month. The average bonus in this group was US$133, with the highest reaching US$3,920 and the lowest about US$30 per employee.
Meanwhile, joint-stock companies with dominant state ownership reported a maximum salary of US$1,713 and a minimum of US$251 per month.
