Those are public officials.

The Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Administrative Punishment of Public Officials has been promulgated and will come into force on July 1 2020. This law shall apply to the activities of supervisory organs to impose administrative sanctions on illegal public officials. Public officials in the workplace should learn this law, earnestly know and abide by the law, and administer according to law.

In this law, the scope of public officials has not been redefined. It only stipulates that "the public official mentioned in this Law refers to the person specified in Article 15 of the Supervision Law of People's Republic of China (PRC)". Therefore, we can know who are public officials by consulting the Supervision Law of People's Republic of China (PRC). Article 15 of the Supervision Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates:

Fifteenth supervisory organs shall supervise the following public officials and related personnel:

(a) China * * * production party organs, people's congresses and their standing committees, people's governments, supervisory committees, people's courts, people's procuratorates, organs of the China People's Political Consultative Conference at all levels, organs of democratic parties and organs of the Federation of Industry and Commerce, as well as personnel managed by reference to the Civil Service Law of People's Republic of China (PRC);

Personnel engaged in public affairs in organizations authorized by laws and regulations or entrusted by state organs according to law to manage public affairs;

(3) managers of state-owned enterprises;

(four) personnel engaged in management in public education, scientific research, culture, medical and health, sports and other units;

(5) Personnel engaged in management in grass-roots mass autonomous organizations;

(6) Other persons who perform public duties according to law.

In other words, there are six categories of public officials. According to the previous research, let's review:

The first category is easy to understand, that is, people who have civil servant status and refer to the civil servant management unit have been registered as civil servants or have participated in public office.

The second category is personnel engaged in public affairs in organizations authorized by laws and regulations or entrusted by state organs according to law with the function of managing public affairs. Mainly refers to the staff of public institutions who manage public affairs except those who participate in public affairs management. For example, the staff of statutory inspection, testing, quarantine and appraisal institutions.

The third kind of state-owned enterprise managers. It mainly includes two groups: first, the members of the leading bodies of wholly state-owned enterprises, state-controlled enterprises (including wholly state-owned financial enterprises and state-controlled financial enterprises) and their branches. Including the chairman, vice chairman and directors, general manager and deputy general manager, secretary of the party Committee, deputy secretary, secretary of the discipline inspection commission, chairman of the trade union, etc. In an enterprise with a board of directors; General manager (president), deputy general manager (vice president), secretary of Party committee, deputy secretary, secretary of discipline inspection commission, chairman of trade union, etc. A business without a board of directors. Second, the middle and grass-roots managers of state-owned enterprises responsible for the management of state-owned assets. Including department manager, deputy department manager, director, deputy director, workshop leader, etc. Personnel who work in important positions such as state-owned property management and supervision, including accountants and cashiers; Leaders of institutions affiliated to state-owned enterprises, persons in charge of state-owned assets management in state-owned capital-sharing enterprises and financial institutions.

The fourth category is the managers of public education, scientific research, culture, medical and health care, sports and other units. Mainly the members of the leading bodies of these units and their branches, as well as the national staff of these units and their branches, such as principals and vice principals of public schools, presidents and directors of scientific research institutes, presidents and vice presidents of public hospitals, etc. Middle-level and grass-roots managers in public education, scientific research, culture, medical and health care, sports and other units and their branches, including staff in management positions above level 6 and other staff engaged in management affairs related to their functions and powers; Personnel working in important positions such as the management and supervision of state-owned property, including those in accounting, cashier, procurement, infrastructure and other departments, are suspected of taking advantage of their positions to commit crimes, and the supervisory organ may investigate them according to law. In addition, the supervisory organ can also investigate the duty violations and duty crimes of members who are temporarily engaged in management affairs related to their functions and powers, such as the bid evaluation committee established according to law, the negotiation team in competitive negotiation procurement, and the inquiry team in inquiry procurement.

Personnel engaged in management in grass-roots mass autonomous organizations. It mainly includes the directors, deputy directors and members of villagers' committees and residents' committees, as well as other entrusted management personnel. The "management" here mainly refers to: (1) the management of disaster relief, emergency rescue, flood control, special care, poverty alleviation, immigration and relief funds and materials; (two) the management of social welfare donations; (three) the management of state-owned land; (4) Management of land acquisition compensation; (5) Collecting and paying taxes; (6) related to family planning, household registration and conscription; (seven) to assist the people's government and other state organs to manage other work of grassroots mass autonomous organizations.

Category VI Other persons who perform public duties according to law. Mainly refers to the personnel who exercise public power according to law except the above-mentioned personnel. For example, hiring some informal staff in government agencies. If these people take advantage of their positions and use public power to commit illegal and criminal acts, which damages the integrity of public power, the supervisory organ may also investigate according to law.

Judging from the scope of the above six categories of personnel, public officials include not only civil servants, public officials, and personnel of public institutions, but also relevant personnel of state-owned enterprises, village committees, and communities, as well as other personnel employed in public affairs. Its scope is still very wide. Generally speaking, you don't hold public office, but you exercise public power, even temporarily. At this time, you are a public official.

People who work in the workplace should study hard to see if they belong to the category of public officials, and don't accidentally break the law without knowing it. Know more about the law, know the law and abide by it, so as to do a better job.
