Government employees are invited to join the 2019 R.A.C.E. to Serve Fun Run on 1 September 2019, 4 a.m. at Quirino Grandstand in Manila.

Organized by the Civil Service Commission National Capital Region (CSC NCR), the fun run serves as the official kick-off activity of the month-long Philippine Civil Service Anniversary (PCSA) in September.

The fun run also seeks to raise awareness on the importance of holistic wellness, provide a venue for interaction among public servants, encourage friendly competition, and foster camaraderie.

Proceeds from the event will go to the Pamanang Lingkod Bayani (PLBi) Program, which honors government officials and employees who died in the line of duty by giving them a one-time financial assistance of Php100,000.00, a plaque of recognition, and scholarship grants to the deceased employee’s immediate family member.

Passers of the March 17, 2019 Career Service Examination-Pen and Paper Test (CSE-PPT), both Professional and Subprofessional levels, may already claim their Certification of Eligibility at CSC Regional Offices, the Civil Service Commission (CSC) announced.

The said examinations, held simultaneously in more than 60 cities/municipalities nationwide, yielded a total of 27,944 passers who are now included in the CSC’s Register of Eligibles.

The Certification of Eligibility, printed on CSC letterhead, should be requested at the CSC Regional Office (CSC RO) with jurisdiction over the examinee’s testing center. Passers must personally claim their certification; representatives are not allowed to claim it on behalf of the passer.

Government leaders and human resource (HR) practitioners will gather for the 2019 Public Sector HR Symposium on 24 to 26 July 2019 at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC), Pasay City to learn how to steer government agencies and build the capacities of civil servants toward realizing AmBisyon Natin 2040, which represents the Filipino people’s collective vision and aspirations.

With the theme “Moving Together Toward AmBisyon Natin 2040”, the symposium will showcase global trends and best practices in achieving People Centered, Clean, Efficient, and Effective Governance. This is one of the desired outcomes in the Philippine Development Plan 2017-2022 which is critical to laying down the foundation for inclusive growth, a high-trust and resilient society, and a globally-competitive knowledge economy.
