In February, 2065438+0521September, the Supreme People's Court issued "Several Opinions of the Supreme People's Court on Improving the Judicial Responsibility System of People's Courts", proposing to strengthen the guarantee for judges to perform their duties and give them stable career expectations.

The head of the Office of the Leading Group for Judicial Reform in the Supreme People's Court once said that the current judges are completely managed by civil servants. Due to the limitation of the number of ranks, most grass-roots judges can only enjoy departmental treatment before retirement, and their salaries fail to reflect the professional requirements and characteristics, resulting in a weak sense of professional honor for judges.

Therefore, it is an important way to improve the sense of professional honor of judges to establish a parallel promotion system of regular promotion and merit-based promotion. Establishing a more scientific and reasonable occupational security system is an important basis for improving the judicial responsibility system.
