![]() ESTABLISHING Teaching Service Commission (TSC) adviser offices in provinces will minimise teachers’ welfare issues every year, says TSC commissioner, operations, Mike Maini Ugaia. Ugaia said in any sector, teaching service made up the biggest number of employees in provinces. “After 50 years, we want to see that we have offices in the provinces because that is where our teachers are,” he said. East Sepik education advisor Timothy Yavu said having TSC advisers in provinces would save time and money. “Teachers’ welfare issues would be solved in the provinces instead of having teachers travelling to Port Moresby,” he said.
Hela education advisor Ronny Angu said this would be a way forward to address all teachers’ issues. However, no TSC adviser was appointed to Hela. “I call on TSC to appoint an adviser for us,” he said. TSC chairman Samson Wangihomie said appointing TSC advisers to provinces was the first point of contact for its teachers concerning their queries. “The main functions of TSC advisers were to work with the provinces to provide advices on teachers’ issues, including welfare and terms and conditions of employment,” he said. Wangihomie said TSC initiated the idea in 2014, but it was ineffective. “TSC would effectively enforce the idea this year with TSC advisers posted to all provinces,” he added.
