[HIGHLIGHTS] Salary of public school teachers Organizing issues such as whether to make allowances Expert meeting of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology

The Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Technology (MST) is considering changes to the Special Pay Law. The law states that teachers should not be paid more than 4% of their salary for overtime work.

MST is considering ways to increase the amount of overtime paid to teachers, as well as ways to reduce the number of days a week that teachers work. The MST will make a final decision on the matter in the coming months. The first step is to hold a meeting of the MST's board of directors to discuss the matter.
