On the official website of the Government it was announced that the provincial Executive will be responsible for paying the teacher incentive. In this way, teachers from Salta will once again receive this payment that was cut by the national government. It has now been renamed “Teacher Transitional Compensation”.
The incentive will be effective, with provincial funds, until next December and the first payment will be made on June 29. The news was celebrated by the entire teaching community, which will thus resume the payment that had been suspended in January 2024. In this context, Fernando Mazzone, Secretary General of the Provincial Teaching Association, said: “For us it is very good news that payment for something that had been unjustly taken from us.”
Payments will be made from July to December and the union will not claim retroactively. “We will see that with justice,” said the union member. “We are very happy. We found out this morning. Last week we had asked the government to inform us yes or yes, because we could not continue waiting for definitions and the teachers could not continue waiting. It is money that was unfairly taken from the teacher’s salary. “We proposed to the province that we were the only public administration workers who had had a salary decrease, not because of the province, but because the Nation had taken it from us.” he added.
Finally, he said that although it is not his responsibility, “I do not believe that the province has the funds to return the other retroactive payments to us. It is also very difficult to ask to pay us the three months that the Nation did not pay us. We trust that when Justice fails, we will be to repay the amount with the months that they owe us.
