17Although that pay may appear to be equal inasmuch as the entitlement to remuneration for additional hours is triggered only after three additional hours have been worked by part-time and fulltime teachers, three additional hours is in fact a greater burden for part-time teachers than it is for fulltime teachers. A fulltime teacher must work an additional three hours over his regular monthly schedule of 98 hours, which is approximately 3 % extra, in order to be paid for his additional hours, whilst a part-time teacher must work three hours more than his monthly 60 hours, which is 5 % extra. Since the number of additional teaching hours giving entitlement to pay is not reduced for part-time teachers in a manner proportionate to their working hours, they receive different treatment compared with fulltime teachers as regards pay for additional teaching hours.
