The leadership of the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR RI)\nreceived an audience with honorary teachers from the Forum Advokasi Guru\nNon-ASN Sekolah Negeri (Fagri) at the parliament complex in Jakarta on\nWednesday. The teachers sought certainty regarding their employment\nstatus for 2027.<\/p>\n
The audience was held in light of the government\u2019s policy on the\nrestructuring of honorary workers, which is set to conclude on 31\nDecember 2026.<\/p>\n
The meeting was led by two Deputy Speakers of the House, Sufmi Dasco\nAhmad and Saan Mustopa. During the session, Fagri Chairman Ahmad Farwiz\nNasution urged the House to push for clarity on the fate of honorary\nteachers before 2027.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlhamdulillah, we were well received by the House leadership,\nProf.\u00a0Sufmi Dasco and Mr Saan Mustopa, who provided substantial input\nand discussion,\u201d Ahmad said after the meeting.<\/p>\n
According to him, the House expressed its commitment to help resolve\nthe issue of honorary teachers\u2019 fate following the issuance of Circular\nLetter Number 7 of 2026 from the Minister of Primary and Secondary\nEducation concerning the assignment of non-civil servant teachers in\neducational units organised by regional governments in 2026.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe 2024 cut-off currently totals 172,323 non-civil servant\nteachers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Ahmad expressed hope that the audience with the House would produce\nconclusions that make the future and careers of honorary teachers\nclearer.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Fagri Deputy Chairman Amiruddin said the audience was held\nbecause the forum questioned the clarity of honorary teachers\u2019 status\nafter the House and the government previously announced a policy to\nimprove employment status for teachers with part-time and full-time\nGovernment Employee with Work Agreement (P3K) status.<\/p>\n
In that announcement, he said, the clarity of status for honorary\nteachers was not addressed by either the House or the government. He\ntherefore hoped the House would be able to ensure status certainty.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were given certainty only until 31 December 2026. We have been\nwaiting for news of certainty for us. However, when it was widely\nreported in the media in recent weeks, there was only news about\npart-time P3K and full-time P3K,\u201d Amiruddin said.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/house-receives-honorary-teachers-seeking-employment-status-certainty-1787739845", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
