A decision by the Government to deduct agency fees from 20,000 teachers, who are not members of any union but are still set to benefit from the Sh5.9 billion commuter allowances deal, has sparked a fresh row in the education sector.
Labour Cabinet Secretary Kazungu Kambi instructed the Teachers Service Commission (TSC), through a gazette notice, to deduct agency fee from all teachers, who are not members of any of the unions that negotiated last year’s pay deal.
