TSC News: Looming Teachers and Civil Servants’ TSC News: Looking Teachers and Civil Servants’ Strike over Sh. 83 Billion for 2021-2025 CBAs over Sh. 83 […]
TSC Teachers CBA: The Teachers Service Commission, TSC appears to have won a bitter battle against teachers that had drawn the much-needed attention of the Salaries and Remuneration Commission, SRC.
However, it is now five years down the line but teachers are still suffering under a discriminatory regime that has continued to give room for unjustifiable discrepancies in the pay for various TSC employees.
This follows initial reports indicating that the teachers’ employer, the TSC is planning to leave out KNUT school administrators in the last phase of the 2017-2021 CBA.
Even as the Teachers Service Commission, TSC is planning to recruit 5000 teachers on Permanent and Pensionable Terms, there is a looming teacher shortage crisis as 30, 000 are set to exit service by December after attaining the retirement age.
“A lengthy document circulating on social media and which contains names purporting to be of school administrators is fake. It has not originated from TSC. Please ignore it,” wrote the Commission on its official tweeter handle.
This is a promotional grade for tutors in primary schools. Besides other minimum selection criteria, teachers who would like to be upgraded to this Grade must have served as Primary Teacher II T-Scale 5 for at least three years.
The Teachers Service Commission has vowed to clean its payroll starting in July 2020. This move has attracted uproar from a section of teachers who feel that the TSC is being unfair given that they did not promote themselves.
Fresh details now indicate that the affected teachers should brace for tougher times ahead since they are staring at imminent salary cuts which will be remitted to the Commission starting July 1, 2020.
It is however important to note that much as these teachers fall in the same grade/ job group, their monthly gross salaries differ depending on the location of their work stations. The same case applies to their TSC allowances. For instance, teachers posted to stations listed as TSC Hardship Areas get an extra Sh 8, 200.
Special Needs Teachers, SNE, also get an extra Sh 8, 200
These tutors have been earning a basic salary of Kshs 41, 343-Kshs 51, 927. They will now enjoy higher monthly salaries with the lowest-paid teacher in this category earning Kshs 43, 154 while the highest-paid will now pocket Kshs 53, 943 effective July 2020.
“The salaries of teachers must be protected. No one, whether government or private entities, should use Covid-19 to hold the salaries of teachers,”
A quick glance at the official TSC list indicates that approximately 400 newly recruited teachers are yet to present their Casuality forms to the TSC headquarters.
