The amount of bonuses for teachers has been increased.

Clause 29 of the Regulation, approved by Resolution No. 823 of the Cabinet of Ministers dated September 30, 2019, states that employees of general education institutions, including managers, can be awarded bonuses in the amount of up to 50% of the minimum wage only in connection with "October 1 - Teacher's and Mentors' Day" at the expense of the existing funds of the Fund.

In this case, the amount of the bonus is calculated based on the minimum wage, and not the teacher's monthly salary.

By the Decree of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated August 12, 2024 No. UP-108, starting from October 1, 2024, the minimum wage is set at 1 million 155 thousand soums per month.

Accordingly, the bonus amount for teachers was 577,500 soums.

By the Decree of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan No. UP-51 "On Additional Measures to Increase the Efficiency of the Management System in the Sphere of Preschool and School Education," the amount of bonuses for pedagogical and managerial personnel is set at up to 75 percent of the minimum wage.

That is, from now on, teachers and managers will receive bonuses in the amount of 866,250 soums instead of 577,500 soums on the occasion of "October 1 - Teacher's and Mentors' Day."
