“…Some studies described employment conditions in ways that underscored the precarity of this employment relationship. These conditions included “part-time and impermanent” (Charteris, Jenkins, Jones, & Bannister-Tyrrell, 2017, p. 512); often recruited on short notice including being notified on the morning of the work offered (Bamberry, 2011; Maxwell et al, 2010); “no employment stability as there is no guarantee of ongoing work within a particular school” (Bamberry, 2011, p. 54); “working conditions are quite precarious, as they cannot plan their classes in advance neither foresee their daily, weekly, or even monthly earnings” (Basilio & Almeida, 2018, p. 7); being “casual employees” (Nicholas & Wells, 2017, p. 231); and “employed temporary and without a contract” (Bayram, 2010, p. 20). Some substitute teachers worked on “a day-to-day basis across different schools and classrooms, although some worked on multiple days in the same class or school, or in some combination of these patterns” (Uchida et al, 2020, p. 1406).…”
