September 10 is the legal teacher's day in China.

There is a certain consensus at home and abroad. Then today's old calendar book will sort out the rules of giving gifts on Teacher's Day around the world for you.

On the occasion of Teachers' Day, students often give gifts to their teachers to express their gratitude. However, due to the particularity of teachers' profession, people's tolerance for teachers' professional unethical behavior is relatively low. Most countries in the world have relevant laws and regulations on teachers' occupation, and also have relevant constraints on teachers' behavior of accepting gifts.

United States: The "rule" for accepting gifts is no more than $5. At the management level, every state and even every school in the United States has certain rules for teachers to accept gifts.

In new york, teachers in public schools belong to the civil service system, so the first principle that teachers should abide by is not to accept gifts from companies that do business with new york that exceed $50 (including $50). The education authorities in new york strongly discourage teachers from accepting gifts from contractors related to the education authorities.

Regarding personal gifts from students, the relevant regulations of new york City say that teachers can accept gifts from students, parents and guardians to express their feelings, such as cheap scarves, handmade snacks, greeting cards, handmade gifts and so on.

The regulations in Massachusetts are similar to those in new york, but if the gift is given by the whole class, it is acceptable to give the teacher more than $50 based on the principle that everyone contributes a small amount. If children need teachers to write letters of recommendation or comments, parents can't accept gifts, even if they are less than $50.

The Alabama Ethics Committee issued a document on 20 1 1 to prevent school officials and teachers from taking bribes. It is stipulated to list acceptable gift categories, such as fruit baskets, homemade cookies, Christmas decorations, classroom supplies, etc. It may be illegal to accept gifts that are too expensive. Bribery may face imprisonment and a fine of $6,000.

South Korea: To curb teachers' bribery, it is found that Korean Teachers' Day falls on May 15 every year. In order to curb the increasingly serious phenomenon of teachers accepting bribes, the education authorities in Seoul, South Korea broke out the corruption of civil servants in 2009.

According to this regulation, ordinary citizens and civil servants can report the behavior of accepting money from civil servants of educational institutions or staff sent by educational institutions. Informants can get a fine of less than 0/0 times the amount of money and hospitality received by the briber, and a fine of less than 20% of the amount of job-related improper benefits, with a maximum bonus of 30 million won (about 24,000 US dollars).

Teachers are stable occupations with high incomes in Korea. If teachers receive red envelopes, they will not only face the risk of being fired, but also lose millions of won a month and affect their pensions. Therefore, Teacher's Day is coming, and many teachers take the initiative to close the door to thank guests and dare not accept red envelopes.

Germany: The maximum value of gifts does not exceed 65,438+00 euros. June 65,438+02 is German Teachers' Day every year. On this day, all of Germany will respect teachers, and students will also give gifts to teachers, but the gifts are very special. German teachers don't care about the value of gifts at all, but look at the students' minds.

Foreign media reported that a female teacher in Berlin, Germany, was accused by her father of accepting too many gifts from students, and the Berlin Administrative Court fined the teacher 4,000 euros. The prosecution did not publicly explain what the gift was, only that it was worth 200 euros. After the female teacher paid the fine, the court stopped investigating the case.

Berlin's Ministry of Interior stipulates that the maximum value of gifts accepted by civil servants within the jurisdiction of the city should not exceed 10 euros, and firefighters and police officers are also stipulated. The authorities have detailed regulations on the scope and value of gifts accepted by civil servants. For example, the accepted gifts can only be "polite and symbolic" and the value should not exceed 10 euros; Senior school officials are not allowed to accept free tickets on any occasion, and teachers can only accept free tickets, coupons or air tickets provided by the organizers when leading students out for activities.

German students or parents generally have no habit of giving gifts to teachers in person. Only under special circumstances, such as the change of head teacher and the graduation ceremony of middle school, will students collectively donate money to buy souvenirs for teachers. It is difficult to give gifts because it cannot exceed the gift-giving standard. For example, in a class of 30 students, even if each student only contributes 1 euro, it is beyond the standard.

The upper limit of the value of gifts received by civil servants in different parts of Germany is different. For example, the standard in North Rhine-westfalen is 25 euros per year, while in Munich it is 15 euros.

China and Hongkong: The law strictly restricts teachers from accepting gifts. Even if parents want to give gifts to their teachers, they can't be polite.

According to the regulations, "benefits" include money, gifts, loans, fees, remuneration, positions, employment, contracts, services and preferential treatment. If you violate the above provisions, once convicted of bribery, those with serious circumstances may face a fine of HK$ 65,438+10,000 and three years' imprisonment, regardless of whether they are the giver or the receiver.

So how many gifts can Hong Kong teachers receive?

Once a faculty member accepts an interest that does not fall within the above scope, he must obtain the written approval of the principal in advance or as soon as possible after accepting the interest. The inspector, any school manager or principal must obtain the approval of the school management Committee if they want to accept the benefits.

Canada: Without Teachers' Day, teachers dare not accept gifts. There is no special Teacher's Day in Canada, but on Christmas and Valentine's Day, parents usually send some small gifts, such as chocolates, greeting cards made with their children, small handicrafts, or spending cards in cafes (the amount is small, usually around tens of Canadian dollars).
