ABSTRACT

The purpose of this article is to discuss legal protection for school honorary teachers in Malang. This study uses a socio-legal approach. Primary data sources are from school principals, teachers, and institution administrators. Moreover, secondary data sources come from laws and regulations relating to teachers' rights. Data are collected through documentation studies, interviews, and observations. Data analysis used domain and taxonomic analysis. Rights of teachers contained in Law Number 14 of 2005 include the right to get welfare and develop professionalism. This study concludes that the right of school honorary teachers in Malang to get welfare is still not good enough. It is due to the fact that they still get a salary below the city minimum wage. On the other hand, the right to develop professionalism or competence has been obtained well by the teachers.
