EducationCompensation Management4HighTeacher$ implied
Teachers are required to work uncompensated hours beyond their contract because a cap on flex time credits allows the school to avoid paying overtime.
Flex time is used to substitute paid overtime for after-school work, but the number of flex days does not cover all required hours, effectively forcing unpaid labor.
