国家公務員に夏のボーナス　２．８％減、平均６６万１１００円

　国家公務員に３０日、夏のボーナス（期末・勤勉手当）が支給された。管理職を除く行政職職員（平均３４．６歳）の平均支給額は約６６万１１００円で、前年夏に比べ約１万９０００円（２．８％）減少した。減少は２０１２年以来、９年ぶり。２０年の人事院勧告に基づく給与法の改正で、支給月数が０．０２５カ月分減ったことが影響した。
　特別職の最高額は首相と最高裁長官の約５６９万円。国務大臣は約４１５万円、一般職の事務次官は約３２３万円。行財政改革を推進するため、首相と国務大臣は一部を自主返納する。（2021/06/30-11:34）

Summer bonuses for Japanese government employees were paid on Wednesday, with the average amount falling for the first time in nine years.
   The average bonus among non-managerial officials, whose average age was 34.6, stood at about 661,100 yen, down 19,000 yen, or 2.8 pct, from last summer.
   The decline reflected a law revision based on National Personnel Authority recommendations in 2020 to lower bonuses by 0.025 month's worth of salaries.
   Summer bonuses for the prime minister and the Supreme Court's chief justice came to about 5.69 million yen, the highest among officials in special service positions, followed by 4.15 million yen for ministers of state and 3.23 million yen for administrative vice ministers, who are in regular service positions.
   The prime minister and ministers will voluntarily return part of their bonuses, in the name of promoting administrative and fiscal reforms.
