Industrial companies with annual revenue over RMB 20 million and have registered in HZZK can apply for this allowance. But each of their electricity consumptions from January to February, 2022 shall be over 170% of theirs in December, 2021 and output value in these 2 months shall increase by over 15% year on year. It provides a standard RMB 300 allowance for each of the staff and can be applied through companies as a group. Companies can apply for it between March 15^th to April 1^st, 2022, based on the number of non-local province staff who have paid social insurance, not left Huizhou in December, 2021 and will stay in Huizhou to celebrate the Spring Festival in February, 2022. Companies will be preferentially selected according to their ranking scores of output growth rate (accounting 50%)and increment of electricity use(accounting 50%)(Detailed rules are subject to the Application Guide). Each company has a capping allowance of RMB 150,000 (and will be given later in the form of consumer vouchers).
