The title clerk is not unfamiliar to most people, it is both a symbol of the profession and a representative of the position. Anyone who has had contact with the courts and procuratorates is well aware of the existence and importance of this post.
Clerks, as a member of the judicial team of the people's courts and people's procuratorates, shoulder the heavy responsibility of handling case records and related matters, and also need to assist in completing a series of judicial auxiliary work. In the past, clerks under the appointment system often belonged to the ranks of state civil servants and enjoyed the treatment of the administrative establishment of the political and legal special department. Nowadays, however, such a situation is becoming rarer, and it has been replaced by a variety of forms of employment, such as the appointment system, the employment system, and the labor dispatch system.
In the ranks of clerks under the employment system, there are many elites who are recruited by the provincial courts or the procuratorial system. After written examinations, interviews, inspections, physical examinations, public announcements and other layers of screening, they finally signed a labor contract with the court or procuratorate they recruited, and were known as provincial clerks. They can be seen busy in the courts and procuratorates in many places.
In addition to provincial clerks, some local courts or prosecutor's offices also organize separate recruitment campaigns. Although it is organized locally, the recruitment process is the same as that of provincial courts and procuratorates, and it also needs to go through registration, qualification review, written examination, interview, physical examination, inspection, publicity, and employment procedures.
Although provincial clerks and county clerks are slightly different in terms of employment form. The former signs a labor contract with the court or procuratorate where it is located, while the latter signs a labor dispatch contract; The term of the employment contract of the former is three years, which can be renewed upon expiration; The latter is hired every two years, and the contract can also be renewed when the contract expires. But in either form, the clerks are contributing to the running of the judicial cause.
Although most of the clerks of the courts or prosecutor's offices are under the labor contract system, they do not enjoy the salary and benefits of civil servants, and the salary level is relatively limited, but in the eyes of outsiders, it is still a mysterious and desirable job. In particular, provincial clerks, due to the high entry threshold, require a legal professional background or study experience, and also need to go through a strict examination and recruitment process, so each recruitment examination can attract a large number of young people to actively apply.
It can be said that clerks are an important part of the judicial system, and they use their diligence and wisdom to protect the justice and dignity of the law. Although their work is not all smooth sailing, they have always stuck to their posts, silently dedicated, and contributed their strength to the construction of a society ruled by law.
Once hired, hired clerks can enjoy a series of relatively good benefits, the most notable of which is salary and benefits. Although the salary level may be slightly lower than that of staff on the establishment, the overall salary structure is still quite impressive.
Taking the Nanchang County Court in Jiangxi Province as an example, the probationary period is only two months, during which you can receive a monthly salary of 3,200 yuan. After becoming regular, the monthly actual salary of undergraduate graduates can reach 5,000 yuan, including 4,000 yuan for basic salary and 1,000 yuan for performance salary. If you hold a master's degree, the actual salary can climb to 5,500 yuan. Of course, this is only the income in hand, if you add social insurance and housing provident fund and other benefits, the monthly salary of undergraduates can actually be close to the 6,000 yuan mark.
In addition to the salary, the hired clerk is also entitled to statutory holidays, such as marriage leave, maternity leave, etc., during the contract period, to ensure that life and work complement each other. In addition, the working meals provided by the canteen of the unit and the regular distribution of trade union benefits make the work and life full of warmth and care. The working environment is also pleasant, and compared to the high-pressure atmosphere of a private enterprise, it is more relaxed and comfortable, so that people can devote themselves to their work.
It is worth mentioning that there is also an opportunity for clerks on the appointment system to join the ranks of the establishment. As long as you pass the judicial examination and stand out in the civil service examination of the court and prosecutor's office system, you can achieve a gorgeous change in status. This mechanism provides a broad space for development and career prospects for people with lofty ideals.
In terms of labour protection, the law also provides adequate protection to clerks under the appointment system. If the two parties agree to renew the employment contract if they have worked in the same unit for 10 consecutive years and are less than 10 years away from the statutory retirement age, the clerk may propose to conclude an indefinite employment contract, and the people's court shall satisfy it. This provision undoubtedly provides a solid legal guarantee for the career of clerks.
To sum up, whether it is a provincial or labor dispatch clerk, they all enjoy similar rights and obligations in the big family of the court and the procuratorate, and their work content and labor security also follow the relevant provisions of the Labor Law and the Labor Contract Law. They have worked hard in their respective positions and contributed their own strength to the cause of justice.
