Peru Transfers S/208.7 Million to Fund Delayed November Teacher Raises

Union leaders warn regional payroll steps could push some payments into early 2026.

MEF transfiere S/208 millones para sueldo docente pendiente de noviembre y Sutep critica demora: "Pasaron Navidad sin sus sueldos"

Overview

  • The Economy and Finance Ministry authorized S/208,675,888 via Supreme Decree No. 318-2025-EF for the Education Ministry and all 25 regional governments.
  • Resources come from the MEF Reserve of Contingency to finance the second tranche of the 2025 wage increase.
  • The measure covers 503,149 teachers, including those in the Carrera Pública Magisterial, contracted staff under Law 30328, and positions with additional managerial or specialist assignments.
  • The payments implement the RIM schedule set earlier, including a base of S/116.69 per hour for the First Scale and updated monthly amounts by scale and working hours.
  • SUTEP says the transfer fulfills a pending November obligation rather than a new 2026 raise, reporting unpaid year-end salaries and protests in Loreto provinces.
