教員の基本給上乗せ１３％案　「残業代」３倍以上へ要求―文科省

　文部科学省は２２日までに、公立学校教員の待遇を改善するため、残業代の代わりに基本給の４％を上乗せ支給している「教職調整額」を１３％に引き上げる案をまとめた。２０２５年度予算概算要求に盛り込む。志望者数が減少する中、現行の３倍以上に増額し、人材確保につなげる狙いがある。
　教職調整額は、教職員給与特別措置法（給特法）で定められており、文科省は来年の通常国会に同法改正案を提出する方針。自治体の条例改正が必要で、増額は２６年からとなる見通しだ。引き上げが実現すれば、１９７２年の同法施行以来、約５０年ぶりとなる。
　また、業務負担の大きい学級担任や、校長、教頭ら管理職の手当も増やす。（2024/08/22-08:52）

Japan's education ministry plans to raise the so-called adjustment pay for public school teachers that is paid in lieu of overtime pay, from 4 pct of monthly base pay to 13 pct, it was learned Thursday.
   The ministry compiled the proposal to include in its budget request for fiscal 2025. The more than threefold increase in the adjustment pay is aimed at securing talent amid a decline in the number of aspiring teachers.
   It plans to submit to next year's ordinary parliamentary session a bill to revise the special measures law on salaries of educational personnel of public compulsory education schools, which stipulates the amount of the adjustment pay. Changing the allowance would also require ordinance revisions by local governments, so the pay increase is expected to begin in 2026.
   It would be the first hike in the adjustment pay in about 50 years since the special measures law entered into force in 1972.
   The ministry also plans to raise allowances for teachers with heavy workloads, and for those in management positions such as principals and vice principals.
