فارس من | One Million Low Salary Reduction for School / Education Services: We do not have overtime in April

Fars News Agency – Department of Education: The salary of the education service is one of the lowest in the ministry. A salary that, despite numerous complaints from service workers and caretakers last year, only led to the addition of one million tomans last year as a living allowance.

Now, this year, in a situation where the increase in the salaries of cultural workers has not been issued yet, the same living allowance has been removed, and in the last days of Esfad, the school service and caretaker forces became bitter.

One of the education service forces told a Fars reporter: “When they paid their salaries at the end of April, we were shocked because the one million tomans that were being poured in as overtime had been removed.” This is despite the fact that the decrees to increase the salary in 1401 have not been issued yet.

He continued: “Since the middle of last year, the overtime payment to the salaries of the servants and caretakers has started, and this payment was added in a situation where the education servants receive very low salaries.” What is the law based on the fact that the salaries of most service workers are between three million and 500 thousand tomans?

The service worker added: “We went to the education department and they said that none of the administrative staff will be overtime in April, and this includes the service staff, but does the caretaker have a holiday during the 15 days of Eid?” Is he on leave? On the other hand, we had the reopening of schools in April, and we have to clean, disinfect, and disinfect schools every day.

“The important thing is that we counted on this overtime and got a loan,” he said. If they did not want to pay, they had to inform in advance. We were really in trouble.
