More than 400,000 teachers employed by the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) will benefit from the second and final phase of the 2025–2029 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA), with the revised salaries expected to be reflected in this month’s pay slips.
The salary review is part of an agreement reached between the TSC and teachers’ unions aimed at improving the welfare of educators and recognizing their contribution to the country’s education sector.
The implementation marks the completion of the negotiated salary enhancements under the current CBA cycle.
The move is expected to provide relief to thousands of teachers who have been grappling with the rising cost of living. Union officials have previously maintained that improved remuneration is essential in motivating teachers and enhancing service delivery in schools across the country.
In addition to teachers, other civil servants are also expected to benefit from government-approved salary adjustments under ongoing public sector pay review programs.

The increases are intended to align compensation with economic realities while improving the welfare of public employees.
Government officials have maintained that the wage adjustments are being implemented within the framework of available resources and in line with commitments made to public sector workers.
The enhanced salaries are expected to boost employee morale and strengthen service delivery in key sectors such as education, healthcare, administration and security.
The July payroll will therefore mark a significant milestone for public servants, particularly teachers, as it ushers in the final phase of the current salary agreement.
Beneficiaries are expected to begin receiving the revised pay this month, with the changes reflecting the government’s continued efforts to improve working conditions and remuneration for its workforce.
The salary increments are also expected to inject additional spending power into households, offering much-needed financial relief to thousands of families that depend on public sector employment for their livelihoods.
