¢º Housing
  • Non-shared furnished housing is provided for all teachers. Housing will include
    a bed, a TV, a refrigerator, a washing machine, a stove, an air conditioner,
    and phone service. Internet service can also be arranged, though setup fees will
    be deferred to the teacher in the event that the service does not already exist at the     location.

Flights
  • For teachers hired in the US or Canada, one-way flights will be provided from any     major North American airport to Korea. After completing a one-year contract,
    a one-way flight will be arranged back to the teacher's city of origin.
  • For teachers hired in Korea, a one-way flight to a major North American airport will
    be provided upon completion of a one-year contract.

¢º Other
  • In addition to the salary, housing, and flights, teachers will also receive a contract         completion bonus or severance after one year. They will also be eligible to petition
    for their pension refund from the Korean pension board before departing the country.

¢º Insurance
  • As of 2006, all institutes are required by law to provide National Insurance for all     teachers. Though 50% of this will be deducted from your monthly pay as
    a premium, POLY will also contribute 50%. You will receive the same coverage as
    a Korean national.
