Salary Payment To TSC Administrators In Acting Capacity. Their is a large number of teachers who serve in unpaid administrative roles. The Kenya Union of Post Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) urged the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to look into the issue.
TSC claims that the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) Circulars eliminated acting jobs and rendered them non-compensable. This is why the parties couldn’t agree on how to pay teachers for acting appointments.
KUPPET declared that the union’s legal staff will think about submitting a formal demand. The demand will be to have the court rule on remuneration for interim appointments. The union alleges that the teacher’s employer is breaching the law by hiring acting administrators without paying them.
Omboko Milemba is the national head of KUPPET. He declared last week that thirty thousand of the fifty thousand teachers who had been unpromoted for years will be promoted. This will be in the next fiscal year.
Omboko expressed discontent with the majority of instructors not receiving promotions since 2017, and the Naivasha summit promised to address this beginning in June.
