TEACHERS DEMAND WAGE INCREASE
The last salary adjustment received by educators in the service of the Ministry of Education was September 1, 2009, 15% of a total of 30% set in clause No. 35 of the V Class. No compensation was envisaged in 2010 and in May 2011 expires this industrial instrument that has been frozen since 2004 almost all socio-economic benefits of the teachers' union (Bonds holiday, end of year, HCM, Invalidity, Survivors personal accident, Cesta Ticket among others). Today
a Professor, category I to 36 (high school) and 33.33 (school) hours per week, earning a basic monthly salary of 1721.65 1593.96 Bs and Bs respectively. Taking into account the data provided by the Report and Statement of the Ministry of Education, all teachers and graduate interns in the classroom are more I, adding about 235,340 teachers, ie, we have over 40% of classroom teachers live on almost a monthly minimum wage.
A School Teacher category VI Director with over 21 years of service and advanced degrees, only earns a basic monthly salary of 2834.88 Bs without deductions of Law (IPASME, SS, LPH, LPF etc. ) to further reduce their wage declined by 10%.
The deterioration of living conditions of teachers is compounded over the years. Social security is almost nonexistent. Insurance self-administered by the Ministry of Education does not provide the service because owes Clinics more than 700 billion Bs; joined this does not cancel reimbursements to beneficiaries caused by the payment of claims for a year and a MCH of 20 000 Bs not enough to cover almost any surgical intervention. To make matters worse, mortgage loans of IPASME are unrealistic and that 210 000 Bs for a couple of teachers and 120 000 it is individual, you can not buy a decent home almost anywhere in the country. Thousands of teachers who are homeless and often have to move and rented.
Personal loans and repairs are symbolic, Bs 15 and 30 000 respectively. Dental and medical services, open to the public today in general, deteriorated badly.
inflation, high cost of living, the devaluation of the currency and taxes such as VAT, have reduced the purchasing power of wages of workers and teachers are not immune to this reality that strikes us and makes us having to search more than one job to survive.
That's why teachers ask the National Executive, Governors and Mayors an immediate adjustment of wages and salaries for ALL WORKERS TO 50% as urgent stop-gap measure until they are discussed and the collective agreements due to expire. Collective procurement of the Magisterium should be discussed in May this year with all the organizations union and there should be done the other socio-economic demands and work that the teachers' union wants.
