JAKARTA - There are 333 honorary staff for educators and non-education at the elementary and junior high schools in Mukomuko Regency, Bengkulu Province who work without receiving salaries due to no extension of their work contracts.

"The work contract ends in June 2022, but they are still working. We are trying to fight for honorary salaries in the 2022 APBD," said the Head of Basic Education of the Mukomuko Regency Education and Culture Office, Arni Gusnita in Mukomuko, Tuesday, September 13. The Mukomuko Regency Government this year laid off 333 of the 783 honorary educators and non-educators at the elementary and junior high school levels, due to the reduced budget to pay salaries sourced from the 2022 APBD.

In addition to 333 honorary workers, including 450 honorary workers whose work contracts have been extended until December 2022 have not received salaries since July, August, and September 2022. "The budget for the salaries of 450 honorary workers is in the APBD, but what about the salaries of 333 honorariums because they are both working together," he said as quoted by Antara..

For this reason, it is better to pay the salaries of all honorary workers, both those whose contracts have been extended and those who have not been waiting for the ratification of the budget for honorary salaries in the revised APBD this year.

In addition, the agency has not yet dared to make a decree (SK) on the extension of the work contract for 333 honorary workers before the budget ratification for the salaries of honorary workers. "We do not want to take the risk of issuing a decree on the extension of the work contract for honorary workers, but the budget for paying their salaries is not in the APBD for this year's change," he said.
