How is teachers' overtime pay calculated?

In addition to their regular teaching salaries, teachers at all levels also receive extra pay for teaching overtime.

Tutoring is quite common nowadays, and many regulations have been issued regarding this issue. These include regulations on how to calculate overtime pay for different educational levels, aiming to ensure transparency and openness.

Overtime pay

Clause 1, Article 4 of Joint Circular 7/2013 of the Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of Finance clearly stipulates the formula for calculating wages for overtime teaching activities of preschool, primary, secondary, vocational and professional training teachers.

Specifically, teachers' overtime pay is calculated using the following formula:

How to calculate overtime pay per teaching hour.

Of those weeks, primary school teachers are allocated 35 weeks for teaching, while secondary and high school teachers are allocated 37 weeks.

The period for calculating overtime pay during the school year runs from July of the previous year to the end of June of the following year. This ensures that all overtime hours are calculated and paid on time. Furthermore, the hourly rate is only used as a basis for calculating overtime pay and is not applied to the calculation of the teacher's monthly salary.

Factors affecting the calculation of tutoring fees.

The actual number of extra teaching hours a teacher performs in a month or a year will be the primary basis for calculating their extra teaching salary. These hours must be accurately and completely recorded to ensure proper payment.

Teachers' basic salaries serve as the basis for calculating overtime pay. This salary includes their current rank and grade, directly impacting the amount teachers receive for overtime work. The higher the basic salary, the higher the overtime pay.

According to regulations, teachers are not allowed to teach more than 200 hours of extra classes per year. (Illustrative image)

In addition, the effectiveness of tutoring is also considered, through evaluations from students and parents. If the tutoring results in significant progress for students and receives positive feedback, teachers may be rewarded or considered for a salary increase for tutoring.

The teacher's educational background, academic degrees, and professional certifications are also important factors in calculating tutoring salaries. Teachers with higher professional qualifications, such as master's or doctoral degrees, or advanced training certifications, generally receive higher salaries, and this also applies when calculating tutoring salaries.

In addition to the basic salary, allowances such as seniority allowance and position allowance also play an important role in calculating tutoring fees. These allowances are added to the basic salary to calculate the teacher's total income, thereby determining the corresponding tutoring fee.
