| description |
Teachers' salaries have often been
highlighted as an important issue in discussions on school
improvement. The level and structure of teacher remuneration
affect morale and the ability to focus on and devote
adequate time to teaching. The author examines who teachers
are, whether teachers are underpaid, and whether teachers
face higher compensation uncertainty than their counterparts
face. The results show that teachers in basic education
consistently work fewer hours than their occupational
counterparts. Regression analysis shows that teachers in
basic public schools are better paid early in their
professional lives than are other comparable individuals.
Because retirement benefits are usually generous, teachers
stay within the profession. |
