Annual chalk allowance from P3,500 to P5,000, clothing allowance from P6,000 to P8,000, and Personnel Economic Relief Allowance (PERA) from P2,000 to P5,000, these are the increase that the ACT has called on to realize for all public school teachers.
Most teachers only have a net take-home pay of around P5,000 a month. If the request to increase the allowances is to be realized it will positively affect the financial status of the teachers which perhaps lessen their salary loans.
“With the meager salaries that our teacher-members are receiving and the skimpy increase in their salaries with the present Salary Standardization Law, most of them cannot anymore cope with the rising prices of basic commodities and services,” they wrote.
