[Machine Translation] In recent years, the shortage of teachers has accelerated. The ratio of elementary school teacher recruitment examinations has been at an all-time low, and some areas have begun to have a ratio of 1:1 or less, meaning that there is a shortage of teachers. The root cause of this is the "long working hours of teachers," which have long been regarded as a "black workplace," and the law known as the "Teachers' Compensation Special Law" that creates these long working hours. Under the law, teachers are only entitled to a fixed overtime pay of 4% no matter how much they work, which is why the law is also ridiculed as "unlimited fixed-rate work. In order to improve this situation as soon as possible, experts, including teachers, university professors, and school consultants, point out the problems with the "Act on Special Measures for Teachers' Compensation" and propose measures for improvement. They will consider measures to save the educational field from the hell of overtime work.

近年、「教員不足」が加速している。小学校教員採用試験の倍率は過去最低を更新し続けており、倍率が1倍台、「定員割れ」の地域も出始めている。その根本原因は、ブラック職場と指摘されて久しい「教師の長時間労働」にあり、その長時間労働を生み出す「給特法」という法律にある。給特法の下では教師はいくら働いても「4%の固定残業代」しか得られず、そのために「定額働かせ放題」とも揶揄されている。この状況を一刻も早く改善するため、現役教諭、大学教授、学校コンサルタントら専門家が「給特法」の問題点の指摘および改善策を提案。教育現場を残業地獄から救うための方策を考える。
