DepEd pushes for additional benefits for teachers in the 2022 elections (see the list of benefits here)
As 2022 National and Local Elections draw near, the Department of Education (DepEd) expresses its appreciation to the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) for granting adjustments in the honoraria and allowances for our public school teachers and poll workers who will serve in May 2022.
Nonetheless, we remain steadfast in helping the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) secure a higher budget from Congress to provide additional benefits for our DepEd personnel.
To establish extra layers of protection for our personnel and schools amidst the pandemic, we will support the Commission in justifying the following benefits:
1. Grant of Special Risk Allowance (SRA) equivalent to a maximum of 25% of the monthly basic salary/pay;
2. Affording food and water allowance amounting to P1,000.00 per day;
3. Health Insurance Coverage for those who will be infected by COVID19 and the provision of vitamins and other immune-boosting supplements;
4. Provision of swab testing and other health services in case of subsistence of COVID19 during the
period of the 2022 National Elections;
5. Allocating funds for the clean-up and repair/maintenance expenses of every public school used as voting center; and
6. Grant of honoraria for the members of the DepEd Monitoring and Coordination Teams of the 2022 DepEd Election Task Force
We will continue to coordinate with COMELEC these significant requests for our teachers and poll workers, who are dedicated to champion clean, safe, and fair elections next year.
