Do you know a government worker whose contributions had national impact, or whose performance resulted in improved performance of a department or agency? Or do you know someone who has consistently displayed exemplary and ethical behavior in his or her career as a public servant?

You may nominate deserving public servants to the 2023 Search for Outstanding Government Workers. Heads of agencies are enjoined to participate in the prestigious Search and nominate exemplars and awardees of their Program on Awards and Incentives for Service Excellence (PRAISE) via electronic submission of documentary requirements, to the CSC Regional and/or Field Offices not later than 31 March 2023.

The Search covers three (3) award categories namely: the Presidential Lingkod Bayan Award, the Outstanding Public Officials and Employees Award (Dangal ng Bayan Award), and the Civil Service Commission Pagasa Award. The conferment of the awards forms part of the CSC's advocacy of promoting excellence and recognizing as well as rewarding civil servants for outstanding performance, contribution and achievements, and/or consistent manifestation of exemplary ethical behavior in the public service.
