Although there are no health insurance and pension fund for part-time teacher, the part-timers don’t really worry about that. They said that become part-timer is their
choice. It reflects that the unavailability of insurance and pension fund is not a big deal for part-time teachers in LIA. So far, they still enjoy work in LIA without
insurance and pension. While the insurance and pension fund for full-time teachers gave them guarantee in their work continuance in LIA.
d. Safety and Health
Safety and health are crucial for employees in an organization. The employees will feel safe and comfortable in their work if the organization
provides enough service of health. In LBPP LIA, there is no specific health facility in the office, such as clinic, but it provides substitution pay for medical
treatment and medical check-up for the employees, included the teachers. There is also change of eyeglasses for the teachers with or without doctor prescription. as
explained by LBPP LIA teacher: “Ada asuransi tidak Bu?”
“Untuk full timer iya…..kesehatan. Juga ada subsidi glasseskacamata, dapat dari kantor.”
The statement above is strengthen by the manager of HRD, who stated that the teachers are be able to claim the expense of their eyeglasses changing to the
office. For teachers, there is car which is available to see back home from the
office. That facility make the teachers feel secure when they have to work far into the night. A teacher said that the car facilities is very helpful for her. She will not
be worry if she has to go home lateness. Dinner also available for the teachers
who work from the afternoon until night. So that from the facilities of safety and health given by LBPP LIA, it can be seen that the facilities given are very helpful
and support the smoothness of teachers’ work in the office.
e. Employee and Labor Relations
Through HRD division, LBPP LIA create good and pleasant climate between the leader, manager and employees. The relationship between teachers
and teachers, teachers and supervisor, teachers and other staffs of LBPP LIA are close and going harmoniously. The teachers said that the relationship between
teachers and supervisor are close, like a family. There is no gap between them. While the relationship between teachers and the owner of the institution is in a
formal relationship. It is because the owner rarely comes to LBPP LIA. However, as the teachers said, all the things in the institution are still managed well and
under control although the owner just comes once a month. From the interview with teachers, the work environment in LBPP LIA is pleasant and comfortable. It
also supports their work quality. HRD of LBPP LIA also gives some rules to be obeyed by employees,
especially teacher, they are a teachers should come 15 minutes before the lesson begin, b teachers have to prepare their materials, c teachers should fill their
stand by times by self-development, d Teachers should give information of their students to the parents who want to know their child’s development.
The teachers of LBPP LIA have responsibility to come on time 15 minutes before the class started. Until now there are no teachers who come late to the
class. And even, some of the teachers come an hour or a half hour earlier before
they start to teach in the class. One of the reasons is they prefer wait their time to teach in the office to in another place. The other reason is they come early because
they have to prepare the material they’ll give in the class. Sometimes they make lesson plan for their teaching activity, or prepare their own teaching media.
Some teachers are given duty to standby in the office if they are not teaching in the class. Standby time for teacher means the teacher must be ready
and stay in the office when the other teachers are teaching in the class. If there is a teacher which is absent and has to teach at that time, the standby teacher must be
ready to substitute the absent teacher. If there is no teachers are absent, standby teacher should fill their standby time by self-development, which can improve
their competence in teaching English. For example, reading books in the library, internet browsing, or making students’ report.
In LBPP LIA, the teachers also have responsibility to deliver the rules for the students and make the report of their students. Sometimes, if there are some
parents of students who want to know and ask the development of their children, the teachers involved have the honor to give information to the parents. Through
in-depth interview with teachers, the rules from the organization which have to be obeyed by teachers, such as work discipline and fulfilling standby time by self-
development are influence their work professionalism.
