Csc Has Declined To Approve Disbursement Of Remote Area Allowance For Expat Teachers

18 December 2016 Kuwait

Civil Service Commission (CSC) has declined to approve disbursement of remote-area allowance for expatriate teachers, restricting such an allowance only for Kuwaiti and GCC teachers, reports Al Qabas quoting informed sources. They lamented that such a decision by CSC is a blunder related to legal financial rights and could create problems in the educational process and lead to unnecessary discrimination among teachers.

The sources said the ministry is obliged to execute CSC’s decision related to the remote-area allowance, taking in consideration the fact that Kuwaiti teachers living in those areas will not receive this allowance. They indicated that such a decision has sparked anger among the expatriate teachers who then demanded for transportation to and from those remote areas.

The sources stressed that this decision follows a series of blunders and unstudied decisions which negatively affect expatriate teachers especially those assigned to teach in remote areas like Sabah Al- Ahmad area.
