Teachers still seeking redress after being underpaid for over four years

After over four years, some teachers who say they are not being paid their correct salaries are still waiting for the discrepancies to be rectified.

Antacia Thomas, who graduated from the Pre-Service Training of the Cyril Potter College of Education (CPCE) in 2016, told Stabroek News that she and others, like Gabriella Cummings, have made repeated efforts to get their salary discrepancies rectified but all to no avail.

Thomas, who graduated in 2016, said she has been receiving the wrong salary since early 2018, while Cummings, who graduated in 2017, found that her issue started in early 2018. Both teachers have said they are being paid below their peers with similar experience and qualifications.
