• The Grade System (职务等级制度), Post Grade System, Leader Grade System or Leader Level Systemof the Armed Forces of the People's Republic of China, including the People's Liberation Army and the People's Armed Police, and all other military-affiliated institutions, is an organizational system by which a command grade (等级 or 级别) is assigned to units, military posts(职务), or billets (岗位) . These grades are separate and partially independent from the rank (衔级) that are assigned to individual officers. The TOC of the PLA assigns a grade to every field unit and military institution (such as military academies), and it is the grade structure that determines the structure of command of the armed forces. An officer obtains the grade when they are assigned to a given post. It is the grade, not the rank, that determines seniority of both units and their commanders, and determines the chain of command. A Senior Colonel (Brigadier equivalent) in a higher grade post may effectively command a Major General in a lower grade post. Moreover, it is the grade of their current post that determines the career progress of an officer, not their rank. Pay, benefits and mandatory retirement ages are linked to grades. Until 2023, each grade post could be filled by at least two different ranks. And as the time limits for promotion were different for grades and ranks, it resulted in a growing difference between grade and rank for the most successful officers. This often resulted in the commander and political commissar of a unit -- both formally of the same grade, and equal in every respect -- to have different ranks. The system was confusing for foreigners, and could create some conflicts. In 2023, the

History

This peculiar dual system has its origin in the lack of rank in the early Red Army (following the lead of the Soviet Red Army), in which post was the only meaningful marker of hierarchy. The PLA adopted a traditional 10-levels officer ranks after the Korean War, again following the Soviet model, but retained a 15-level grade system in parallel. 1927: A simple grade structure was introduced 1952: A revised structure of 21 grades was implemented 1955: A system with 20 grades and 15 ranks was introduced 1965: At the beginning of the Cultural Revolution, the rank system was abolished and officers used the government's National Administrative Cadre system of 27 grades 1972: Four grades were abolished, leaving 23 grades 1979: 23 grades were reduced to 15 1988: New rank system with 10 ranks was implemented In 2021, a reform of the grade system was introduced by the CMC to resolve the increasing problems with the rank/grade divergence: with the "brigadization" of the PLA, there were fewer intermediate Division-level grades to fill, making career development slower. While the grade system was retained, it was made more congruent with rank system by making that each grade can only be filled by one rank, which solved the problem of outranked officials commanding officers that they outgraded. Each grade can be filled by at least two different ranks, and a given rank can fill many differently graded posts (Major Generals can fill up to four different grades). 中华人民共和国军事及中国人民解放军建制内不同部队、机构具有不同级别，一般根据级别确定下属机构级别以及官员职务级别。Civil_service_of_the_People's_Republic_of_China

ogether, the grade and rank systems have consisted of five basic components: grade categories (职务), grades (级别), rank categories (等级), ranks (军衔), and billets (岗位)

On January 1, 2021, the "Interim Regulations on the Management of Active Military Officers" came into effect. According to the "Interim Regulations on the Management of Active Military Officers", the military rank levels, job levels, and salary levels are compared as follows  :

• Unranked ( Chairman of the Central Military Commission , Level 1)
• General Officers
  1. General (Vice Chairman of the Central Military Commission , Level 2; Member of the Central Military Commission , Level 3; Chief of Theater Command , Level 4)
  2. Lieutenant General (Theater Deputy, Level 5)
  3. Major general (military-level chief officer, level 6; military-level deputy, level 7)
• Field Officers
  1. Senior colonel (chief officer of division-level troops, level 7; chief officer of division-level, level 8; deputy division-level officer, chief officer of brigade level, level 9)
  2. Colonel (deputy at brigade level, chief officer at regiment level, grades 8-11)
  3. Lieutenant colonel (deputy at regiment level, chief officer at battalion level, grades 10-13)
  4. Major (battalion-grade chief officer, grade 12-16; battalion-grade deputy, grade 12-16)
• Company Officers (尉官)
  1. Captain (company-grade officer, grades 14-17)
  2. Lieutenant (company deputy grade, grades 15-18)
  3. Second lieutenant (platoon-grade officer, grades 17-19)

According to the " Reserve Personnel Law of the People's Republic of China ", there are only seven second-class military ranks for reserve officers, namely, reserve colonel (reserve senior colonel, reserve colonel, reserve lieutenant colonel, reserve major) and reserve lieutenant (reserve captain, reserve lieutenant, reserve second lieutenant). ).

根据《现役军官管理暂行条例》、《全国人民代表大会常务委员会关于中国人民解放军现役士兵衔级制度的决定》，新的现役军人军衔制度按军种区分为五类：

• 火箭军军衔，凡火箭军军官、士兵，一律冠“火箭軍”字样，如“火箭军上将”、“火箭军上尉”、“火箭军下士”；

根据《中华人民共和国预备役人员法》，另设下列类型军衔：

• 预备役军衔，凡预备役部队军官、士兵，一律冠“预备役”字样，如“预备役大校”、“预备役中尉”、“预备役二级上士”。
• 退役军衔，凡退出预备役的军官、士兵，一律冠“退役”字样，如“退役大校”、“退役中尉”、“退役二级上士”。

Structure of the Grade System

Congruence with civilian grades

Career Paths

paths and skill sets are relatively narrow. There are five PLA career tracks:

• Military (or command) officers (junshi/zhihui junguan; 军事/指挥 军官)

• Political officers (zhengzhi junguan; 政治军官)

f

• Logistics officers (houqin junguan; 后勤军官)

• Armaments officers 235 (zhuangbei junguan; 装备军官)

• Specialized technical officers (zhuanye jishu junguan; 专业技术军官).15Overview of t h e O rganizational Structu re of P L A L ogistics, E q u ipment, and Supp ortChapter 1

Finally, prior to 2021, the PLA’s off icer corps was organized into

five career tracks shown in the following bullets. Unlike the US military,

PLA officers are not assigned alphanumeric military occupation/occupational

specialty codes or Air Force specialty codes. The PLA combined the first

four career tracks together and identif ied them as non-special

technical officers.

„ Military/operational officer

„ Political officer

„ Logistics officer

„ Equipment/armament officer

„ Special technical officer

However, in 2021, the PLA apparently lumped them together even

further and has renamed them “command and administrative officers.”21

It still has the special technical officer track as a separate track

Four of these five categories correspond to the four General Departments. (Specialized

technical officers, who are responsible for equipment maintenance, repair, research,

development, and testing, may belong to any functional category, though they are most

frequently associated with the logistics or armaments tracks.237 ) Officers are tracked into

one of these systems when they are commissioned, are trained and educated throughout

their career in the same system, serve in units and headquarters within that system, and

do not routinely transfer from one system to another until they have reached quite a high

position (MR deputy leader or above) in

the military hierarchy.Every officer in the PLA also

has a grade level, sometimes

called a “duty grade” (zhiwu

dengji; 职 务 等 级 ). It is an

officer’s grade that most clearly

signals his status in the PLA

hierarchy. The importance of the

grade system is indicated in

several ways:

• Grade level determines a

PLA officer’s authority

vis-à-vis other officers.

For instance, it is because

the commander and the

political officer in a given

unit are always of the

same grade that they have

equal authority in the unit.

• Officers at the same

grade level are equal in

status even if they have

different ranks.

• An officer’s grade level

determines what billets he

is eligible to fill.

• Officers’ pay is

determined first by their

grade level, and only after

that by their military rank

and years of service.240

• Promotion in grade

indicates that one is moving up the career ladder. Moving from one grade level to

the next is a promotion; moving from one position to another in the same grade is

a lateral transfer. For example, moving from a position as chief of staff in an MR

headquarters to become deputy commander in the same MR headquarters is not a

promotion, because both have a grade level of MR Deputy Leade

TIME IN GRADE vs TIME IN RANK: the next Second Artillery commander may not immediately become a CMC member until he meets "time-in-grade" (TIG) requirements. The

Unit Grade Structure of the Chinese Armed Forces

CMC Chairman-grade (中央军委主席) Grade 1 (1级)

The Chairman of the Central Military Commission in both its Party and State guises is the head of the Central Military Commission and the supreme commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of the People's Republic of China. It is always exercised by a civilian office holder. Since 1989, except for certain power transfer periods, the CMC Chairman has simultaneously been the General Secretary of the Communist Party of China, and President of China.

Deng Xiaoping rejected the offer to be granted an honorary rank as "First Class General" as head of the CMC, preferring to remain a civilian leader. Since 1994, it has been expressly stipulated that the Chairman of the Central Military Commission shall not be awarded a military rank.

In the cases during transitions where the Chairman of the CMC of the CCP is not the same as the Chairman of the PRC's CMC (as in 2012), the rule of "the party leads the gun" (党指挥枪) means that the CCP Chairman shall have command priority.

Deputy Chairman of the Central Military Commission-grade (中央军委副主席): Grade 2 (2级)

Vice-Chairmen of the Central Military Commission assist the Chairman of the Central Military Commission in his work. The number of vice-chairmen is undetermined, and only officers of full general rank are eligible for the grade. However, there have cases of civilians serving as Vice-Chairmen, like Deng Xiaoping, Zhao Ziyang, Yang Shangkun, Hu Jintao, and Xi Jinping, so active military status is not essential.

Central Military Commission Member-grade (中央军委委员) Grade 3 (3级)

CMC Member Grade posts can be only filled by full Generals (上将军衔). While the pre-reform CMC had representatives from the branches, now the only CMC member-grade positions are the heads of the Ministry of National Defense, the Joint Staff Office, the Political Work Department, and the Inspection Commission.
