TSC Updated Municipality Allowance For Teachers. The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) provides a range of allowances to all employed teachers in Kenya, on top of their base wage each month.
In addition to housing allowance, commuter allowance, leave allowance, hardship allowance, and medical allowance (which is withheld and submitted to the National Health Insurance Fund, NHIF) rather than being paid directly to the teacher, the remuneration package also includes other benefits.
The generous housing allowances provided to teachers employed by large towns, cities, and municipalities (across multiple occupational groupings) are the main topic of this article.
The location and work group of the teaching station affect the TSC house allowances marginally. For instance, dwelling allowances are larger for teachers in cities with a higher cost of living than they are for instructors in rural areas.
Additionally, dwelling allowance levels vary among teachers who work in the same municipality but in different job groups.
Municipality areas have been divided up into three groups by the Commission: the capital city (Nairobi), large cities (Mombasa, Kisumu, and Nakuru), and other major towns (Eldoret, Trans-Nzoia, Kiambu, Makueni, Kilifi, Nyeri, Kisii, Machakos, Kitui, Narok, Embu, Meru, etc.).
Compared to teachers stationed in other municipalities and big municipalities, Nairobi teachers are paid the most.
Mombasa, Nakuru, and Kisumu are some of the major municipalities. Higher job group teachers from these regions employed by TSC receive a larger salary than lower work group teachers.
TSC Updated Municipality Allowance For Teachers
As a result, salaries for teachers in municipalities are determined by their positions, duties, and the areas in which they are stationed.
The dwelling allowances for teachers in Nairobi, significant municipalities, and other municipalities are summarised below.
