[quote=APAULT,265043]It seems it is compulsorary, but most foreign teachers do not seem to be covered. Nor are many workers though I believe they should be. I believe it is a cost on the employer as Jabaroo says, but as the labour laws are all so blatantly ignored that doesn't mean much. From a western perspective, you negotiate a contract and provided everything is declared it really an issue who pays. It is whether you choose to accept the conreact package or not. In your case, it was discovered after the agreement was made and if it is compulsorary, the employer should pay, but you agreed to go 50/50 - so be it!. My experience (and you have been here longer than me), is that internal communications are not always perfect (!) and if you follow it up it should be corrected. If it isnt, you make sure you get your own back...there are mnany more jobs than foreign teachers! (more on this last point in a new thread sometime in the future).[/quote]
