CCTV News:The Chinese New Year is coming, and the topic of "thirteen salaries" is getting hotter and hotter. What exactly is "thirteen salaries"? What’s the difference with the "year-end award"? Can everyone get it? What else should we pay attention to about the money bag?
Is "Thirteen Salaries" and Year-end Awards the same thing?
"Thirteen salaries" means the thirteenth monthly salary, also known as "double salary at the end of the year", which means that the unit pays one more month’s salary to the individual according to the prescribed procedures.
In the 1980s, foreign-funded enterprises had more autonomy in the distribution of wages, and the policy allowed these enterprises to pay one month’s salary at the end of the year instead of paying various kinds of meals and transportation subsidies to state-owned enterprises. In this sense, thirteen salaries more reflect the comprehensive distribution of various subsidies.
Now, with the national reform of enterprise wage distribution, some domestic-funded enterprises have also borrowed the method of thirteen salaries. In this sense, the thirteen salaries of many enterprises have a certain year-end reward nature.
The year-end bonus refers to the one-time bonus paid to employees by withholding agents such as administrative organs, enterprises and institutions according to their annual economic benefits and comprehensive assessment of employees’ annual work performance.
The difference between the two is that "thirteen salaries" can better reflect the fairness of incentives; The year-end bonus can better reflect the results of performance appraisal.
Are there as many "thirteen salaries" as year-end bonuses?
In the absence of specific provisions, there is a slight difference in the calculation base between the two: the year-end award has certain uncertainty in the calculation amount.
For the calculation base of "thirteen salaries", if the employer has clear regulations, it will be implemented in accordance with the regulations; If the employer does not clearly stipulate, the judicial practice tends to use the average wage of workers in the current year as the calculation base; For those who should pay thirteen salaries when the labor contract is terminated in the middle of the year, the judicial practice tends to take the average salary of workers for 12 months before the termination as the calculation base of thirteen salaries.
How to pay "thirteen salaries"?
Like the year-end bonus, the laws and regulations do not make specific provisions on the employer’s payment of "thirteen salaries", which belongs to the category of independent management of enterprises, and the company can consider whether and how to pay according to its own situation.
If there is no explicit stipulation in the enterprise and there is no practice before, the workers cannot force the unit to pay double salary at the end of the year. The standard of the thirteenth month’s salary is basic salary or full salary or bonus, which is completely determined according to the agreement between the enterprise and employees or the provisions of the enterprise’s salary and welfare policy.
Therefore,Different enterprises have different regulations on the payment of "thirteen salaries".Some enterprises stipulate in the Employee Handbook that at the end of the Lunar New Year, the company will give employees one month’s salary as a bonus, and the bonus will be calculated in proportion to the employees who joined the company that year and passed the probation period before December 31. Employees with poor attendance, poor performance or violation of discipline cannot get this bonus.
Can you send it or not only depends on the boss’s mood?
Some enterprises stipulate that employees must meet many conditions in order to get double pay at the end of the year:
Employees must have served in the company for three months in the current year; You must still work in the company on the day of double pay; Employees who resign or terminate the labor contract through negligence or non-negligence before the double pay date will not be entitled to the annual double pay … …
With so many conditions, does it mean that whether the "thirteen salaries" and the year-end bonus are issued depends on whether the boss is happy or not?As a matter of fact, thirteen salaries and year-end bonus are all components of wages, and employers cannot violate labor laws and regulations in the process of issuing thirteen salaries and year-end bonus.The Labor Contract Law stipulates that the labor remuneration must be clearly defined in the terms of the labor contract. Therefore, if workers want to protect their right to get "thirteen salaries" or year-end bonus at the end of the year, they must make clear the relevant rules and regulations of the unit in advance and be familiar with the labor contract.
If the labor contract or unit rules and regulations stipulate the amount or calculation method of "thirteen salaries" or year-end bonus, and the laborer has paid the labor, the unit should pay it in full according to the regulations.
Can employees who leave early and are new get it that year?
If the year-end bonus is not clearly stipulated in the labor contract or the company’s rules and regulations, according to the principle of equal pay for equal work, the labor dispute arbitration institution or court will generally support the resigned employees to get a certain percentage of the year-end bonus.
Like former employees, if the company’s rules and regulations and labor contracts do not clearly stipulate the year-end bonus, according to the principle of equal pay for equal work, labor dispute arbitration institutions or courts will generally support "new employees" to get a certain percentage of the year-end bonus.
Will the integral be cleared if it is not used?
At the end of the year, it is also the peak period of forwarding information similar to "points need not be cleared". It is understood that several major operators do have the system of clearing points, but it is best to log in to operator official website for details.
Credit card points
It’s not just the phone bill. For some credit card holders, the amount of credit card swiping is tens of thousands of yuan every year, but they have never exchanged points for gifts. Some people think that the points in bank cards are permanently valid, but in fact, the validity period of credit card points in different banks is different, and there are great differences.
More complicated than the deadline is the value of the integral. Points used to be a sword for banks to promote credit cards, but with the increasing popularity of credit cards, points are becoming less and less valuable. Generally speaking, for every dollar spent by swiping a card, a point will be generated. Official website, a credit card center of a bank, shows that gifts can hardly be exchanged under 10,000 points, while 50,000 points can be exchanged for a pillow with tens of dollars, while it takes 3.87 million points to exchange an Apple 6 mobile phone.
Consumption membership card points
In order to attract consumers’ secondary consumption, many shopping malls and supermarkets generally adopt the integral membership card system. However, in order not to lose points in vain, many people seem to be redeeming points, but in fact they are busy spending money at the end of the year, especially women.
Remind consumers not to spend blindly just to use points. In addition, unlike communication operators and bank credit cards, the points of shopping malls and supermarkets are generally one year. As merchants have the final right to interpret points redemption, the ways to inform users are different, reminding consumers to check in time to avoid missing them.
Reminder: There is a trap in the redemption of points at the end of the year!
The mobile phone receives a short message from the bank, and the points are exchanged for cash packages. Click to fill in the relevant information, and the funds in the card will be stolen. Police reminder: When you receive similar messages, you must be more careful, especially to remind you of points redemption and other information. You must be more screened and verified by official telephone and official website.
Pay attention to redeeming points at the end of the year
① Look for the official Internet websites, mobile phone websites and credit card points of major banks to exchange for official websites, and be wary of logging in by searching for websites or clicking on links provided by others;
② When redeeming points, please pay attention to checking the points information in the SMS verification code for redeeming points. There will be no "virtual deduction" when the bank points are exchanged. If the message is prompted as payment information, please be highly vigilant;
3 Bank staff will not ask cardholders for sensitive information such as dynamic verification codes and passwords of credit cards, and do not disclose them. Any request is fraud;
(4) If you have any questions about the received 95533, 95588, 10086 and other related short messages, it is suggested that you don’t do anything for the time being, and consult the staff of banks, telecommunications and other outlets as soon as possible;
⑤ It is suggested to install security software (such as Tencent Manager) on mobile phones to screen fraudulent short messages and identify phishing websites, and pay attention to upgrading the software regularly;
⑥ Once you click the link, you find that the mobile phone can’t receive short messages, and the phone or card is stolen. You should immediately reinstall the mobile phone system, restore the factory settings or use anti-virus software to kill viruses. At the same time, it is necessary to freeze all third-party accounts and online banking in mobile phones at the first time, and inform relatives and friends in the address book, delete short messages in time, and do not click on links to avoid expanding risk losses.
⑦ Don’t click on unknown links, pictures and files!
