One-range salary increase for teachers upon retirement


When public school teachers retire, they will receive a one-range salary increase, which will be used to calculate their retirement compensation. Section 26 of Republic Act No. 4670, dubbed “The Magna Carta for Public School Teachers,” states:

Salary Increase upon Retirement. Public school teachers having fulfilled the age and service requirements of the applicable retirement laws shall be given one range salary raise upon retirement, which shall be the basis of the computation of the lump sum of the retirement pay and the monthly benefits thereafter.

Followed by the DepEd Order No. 48, s. 1997 or the Guidelines in the implementation of the benefits arising from a one (1) salary grade increase for retiring public school teachers pursuant to RA 4670. This is the most awaited moment by the public school teachers, that they will be given one (1) salary grade increase upon retirement.
