Are Primary School Teachers Allowed to Have Tattoos?
According to Article 19 of the Public Employees Law 2010, public employees are prohibited from the following actions:
Evading responsibility, shirking assigned tasks or duties; creating factions, causing disunity; unauthorized work abandonment; participating in strikes.
Misusing assets of the agency, organization, unit, and the people contrary to the provisions of the law.
Discriminating based on ethnicity, gender, social status, belief, or religion in any form.
Exploiting professional activities to propagate against the principles, policies of the Communist Party, laws of the State, or causing harm to the customs, traditions, cultural and spiritual life of the people and society.
Insulting the honor, dignity, and reputation of others during professional activities.
Other prohibitions on public employees as stipulated by the Anti-Corruption Law, the Law on Thrift Practice and Waste Prevention, and other relevant legal provisions.
Additionally, the Charter of Primary Schools issued with Circular 28/2020/TT-BGDDT does not contain provisions prohibiting teachers from getting tattoos.
Thus, currently, there are no regulations prohibiting primary school teachers from getting tattoos. However, it is important to note that teachers getting tattoos may be perceived negatively by students; hence, some schools might prohibit teachers from having tattoos.
Sincerely!
