Morocco’s Ministry of National Education, Preschool, and Sports announced on Wednesday that it is taking a number of measures to ameliorate the administrative and financial situations of public sector education employees who have been plagued by chronic dysfunctions in the administrative system, according to a statement cited by Morocco’s Press Agency (MAP).
The measures come in response to longstanding concerns from education sector employees, who have experienced chronic delays in receiving their salary paychecks and have had administrative issues affecting their career progression. These include issues related to recruitment, tenure, grade advancement, and promotion through professional competency exams.
According to the statement, payments will commence at the end of January 2025 after approval of employees’ administrative status, which ostensibly will benefit around 16,000 school teachers and others in a short period.
The ministry is proceeding with the payment of allowances for promotions based on professional competency exams for the year 2023.
The initiative is intended to accelerate the payment of salaries and determine the status of employees within two months of their exam results being announced, according to MAP.
Beginning this month, the ministry will also be processing retroactive salary payments for grade advancements from 2017 to 2023.
To further expedite the resolution of pending cases, the ministry is coordinating with the Ministry of Economy and Finance. The two ministries will focus on accelerating the disbursement of salaries related to tenure, grade advancement, family allowances, and specific cases linked to the 2023 professional aptitude exam. Payments are expected to commence by the end of February 2025.
The Education Ministry has also initiated the tenure process for certain teaching staff still in training.
While progress is being made in resolving salary arrears and administrative adjustments for teachers, the ministry is continuing to accelerate the implementation of agreements signed on December 10 and 26, 2023.
The ministry statement also highlighted its ongoing sectoral-social dialogue process, asserting that it has been efficient and effective through its participatory approach with major unions, MAP reported.
