The Civil Service Commission (CSC) announced recently that examinees who were not able to take the August 12, 2018 Career Service Examination, Pen and Paper Test (CSE-PPT) from Regions I, III, IV (except Morong, Rizal), and Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR) will be allowed to take the March 17, 2019 CSE-PPT free of charge, upon request.
The consideration is in light of the torrential rains brought by southwest monsoon (Habagat) on said date (Aug. 12), bringing severe weather conditions that might have caused non-attendance for some examinees.
The CSC said that affected examinees will only be given one chance to take the examination free of charge, upon request. They are required to register at the CSC Regional Office (RO)/Field Office (FO) nearest them until January 16, 2019 only. Documents to be personally submitted by the examinee are 1) duly accomplished Application Form (CS Form No. 100, Revised September 2016); 2) four [4] pieces Passport sized I.D. pictures, with handwritten and handheld name tag and taken within three months prior to filing of application; 3) original and photocopy of any valid and existing I.D. cards; and 4) original and photocopy of Application Receipt and/or CSC Official Receipt for the August 12, 2018 CSE-PPT (if available).

The CSC does not prohibit the holding of Christmas parties as long as government agencies can assure continued delivery of efficient services.
“Christmas is the season of sharing and giving and I know that the best gift government workers can give to the transacting public is the provision of responsive, compassionate, and effective public service, not only for the holidays but throughout the year,” said CSC Chairperson Alicia dela Rosa-Bala.
The Civil Service Commission (CSC) reminds government agencies nationwide, especially those in the frontline, to provide uninterrupted service amid the conduct of Christmas get-togethers and other similar year-end activities.
Agencies that render frontline services are encouraged to adopt appropriate working schedules and assign skeletal forces to ensure that all clients who are within their premises are attended to during office celebrations. # # #

The Civil Service Commission (CSC) reiterates the provisions of Republic Act No. 6713, or the Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees which prohibits civil servants from soliciting or accepting gifts, favors, loans or anything of monetary value in the course of their official duties. Thus, government workers are reminded not to accept gifts nor solicit for items to be raffled during Christmas party or holiday celebration.
“Serving the public is our duty and we must give the best possible service and the extra mile without expecting anything in return,” said CSC Chairperson Alicia dela Rosa-Bala.
Section 50 (8), Rule 10 of the 2017 Rules on Administrative Cases in the Civil Service (RACCS) provides that, “Receiving for personal use of a fee, gift or other valuable thing in the course of official duties or in connection therewith when such fee, gift or other valuable thing is given by any person in the hope or expectation of receiving a favor or better treatment than that accorded to other persons, or committing acts punishable under the anti-graft laws.” Violation of this provision is a grave offense and is punishable by dismissal from the service.
