The Civil Service Commission (CSC) has issued the 2025 Rules on Administrative Cases in the Civil Service (2025 RACCS) to reflect significant legal and procedural developments since the last revision in 2017.
The RACCS has served as the primary framework for handling disciplinary and non-disciplinary cases involving government officials and employees nationwide. However, changes in legislation, evolving jurisprudence, and updated CSC policies prompted a comprehensive review and overhaul.
The revised 2025 RACCS comprises 159 sections across 23 Rules. Key updates include the integration of laws such as:
- Republic Act (RA) No. 11032, or the Ease of Doing Business and Efficient Government Service Delivery Act of 2018, and
- RA No. 9285, or the Alternative Dispute Resolution Act of 2004 along with their respective implementing rules and regulations.
