At the press conference held on the morning of April 1 in front of the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education in Jongno-gu, Seoul, ‘Crown 19 postponed the unpaid crisis for three months: the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education prepares measures keep for instructors after school ‘have. Yonhap News
Kim Sun-young (pseudonym, 36), who worked as a learning teacher in the past and also ran a tutoring institute for 4 years, signed a contract with a consignment company two years ago and has been working as an instructor after the school in Cheonan, Chungnam province. The main reason I changed my job was because it was more stable than the academy and could ensure parenting time at night. However, this year’s Corona19 incident prevented the opening of schools after school, and in the past two months there was no money at the school.
With the release of Corona 19, those who teach at the school like Kim, but not the teachers, are directly affected. Sports instructors, after-school instructors, and art instructors are typical examples. In the case of education officials, who entered into an employment contract with educational authorities, such as a food court cook, educational authorities paid some prepaid wages while school was delayed. However, instructors are not eligible.
In addition to regular classes, programs that provide various educational opportunities, such as skills and hands-on experiences, have always been in schools under the names of special activities in the 1980s (CA) and specialized fitness education in the 1990s. Since 2005, it has been established as an after school school. As of 2019, 16,888 schools, 98.6% of elementary, middle, and high schools across the country, run after-school schools, and 11,670 external teachers and teachers participate. However, instructors cannot sign an employment contract with the school, they only sign a service contract with the school annually as a private business or through a consignment company. Similarly, while working in schools, unlike education officials, the context for these related measures has not appeared.
“After 20 years of teaching at school, we have been teaching at school, saying, ‘Why do you save your instructor’s salary in taxes? “I feel desperate about my attitude.” Mr. Sunyoung Kim said, “You can barely open a class by attracting students as much as possible while taking a free” Gusto “class for a week before the start of the semester, like opening a tasting corner in the mall. Although it is a school program, I feel it is worse than the cultural center of the department store. ”
Art instructors, “very short-time workers,” who have to sign an employment contract every 10 months and cannot work for more than 15 hours a week, also cannot attend conferences when the school closes with Corona 19. There are around 5,200 arts instructors, but the legal status is relatively clear, including the Arts and Cultural Education Support Act, which specifies support projects to send 8 arts and arts instructors to elementary, middle and high schools. However, the issues that sign labor contracts with them have changed from the Korean Arts and Culture Promotion Agency, which sponsors support projects, to the cultural bases of each local government and to private companies such as the Korean Traditional Music Association. This is the result of changing the burden of employment. The instructor artists negotiated directly with the Promotion Agency, which sponsored the support project, to induce measures such as prepayment of some tuition fees, but the unstable situation may recur in the future.
Kim Jong-jin, deputy director of the Korea Institute for Social and Labor Research, said: “There are many vulnerable forms of employment, such as self-employed workers and secondary schools in the field of education services.” Even if the workers’ status is not fully recognized, education, such as the basic salary and the performance salary, is established according to the number of students. The salary system for service workers must be redesigned. ”
