Government employees who misrepresent education, experience, training, and eligibility qualifications to qualify for a particular position will be charged with serious dishonesty.

This was stressed by the Civil Service Commission as it issued Resolution No. 2100079 or the Revised Rules on the Administrative Offense of Dishonesty. The new resolution aims to further clarify and define the parameters of the classifications of dishonesty in order to aid disciplining authorities in charging the proper offense.

In line with the recommendation of the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-MEID) which was approved by the President placing the National Capital Region (NCR) and its surrounding provinces of Bulacan, Cavite, Laguna, and Rizal (also known as NCR Plus), and the City of Santiago, Quirino, and Abra under Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine (MECQ) from 12-30 April 2021, CSC Central Office, CSC National Capital Region, Regional Office IV Headquarters and Field Offices in Bulacan, Cavite, Laguna, and Rizal shall continue to observe the work from home arrangement (WFH) until 30 April 2021. CSC Field Offices in Quirino and Abra shall also adopt the WFH on said dates.

Nominations to the 2021 Search for Outstanding Government Workers will be accepted until 30 April 2021 as the Civil Service Commission (CSC) has extended the deadline for another month.

The CSC said that to protect both its Regional/Field Offices and the agencies under their jurisdiction from the risk of COVID-19 transmission, submission of nominations shall be done online.

The Civil Service Commission (CSC) has come out with rules and procedures for the availment of maternity leave, paternity leave, adoption leave, and other leave privileges for civil servants.

CSC Resolution No. 2100020 amended the Omnibus Rules on Leave (CSC Memorandum Circular No. 41, s. 1998, as amended) to align its provisions with Republic Act No. 11210 or the “105-Day Expanded Maternity Leave Law” and its implementing rules and regulations.

The Civil Service Commission (CSC) warned the public against review centers or individuals/groups offering review classes and reviewers for the Career Service Professional and Subprofessional Examination (CSE).

The CSC has noted that reviewers for career service examinations are being offered and sold in the market, either through bookstores, social media, or online selling websites. There are also claims that the reviewers have been prepared by CSE topnotchers.
