Stories of Child Care Teachers’ Rights

The purpose of this study is to find ways for childcare center teachers rights and to promote them as per their stories. Data were collected by conducting 2-4 interviews whih 17 teachers who are wokking at their field and conduct qualitative analysis. As a result of the analysis, First, it was difficult for childcare teachers to distinguish whether thiers were originally their role or infringement of rights. Second, teachers said they needed the ‘right to education’. Although they had pride as an expert, they were experiencing identity confusion in the process of performing their role as a teacher the right to education was not clearly specified. Third, teachers said they wanted that the “right to rest” would be guaranteed even during work, and that the right to “logoff” from work after work was needed. Fourth, in order for teachers' rights to be practically guaranteed, a practical system such as legislation to protect teachers' rights had to be established. It was stated that a monitoring system should be introduced to monitor how much teachers' rights are being followed by preparing a monitoring system for day care centers. Based on the results of this study, it is expected that it will be a basic data for finding ways to protect and promote the rights of daycare center teachers.
