Registered examinees of the 4 August 2019 Career Service Examination-Pen and Paper Test (CSE-PPT) in Region VI who were not able to take the exam may register for and take the CSE on 15 March 2020 for free, the Civil Service Commission (CSC) announced.
It can be recalled that, at that time, severe weather conditions and the Guimaras Strait tragedy led to the suspension of maritime trips from Guimaras to Iloilo and vice versa. While no suspension of the 4 August CSE-PPT was declared, a number of examinees from Region VI were not able to take the said exam.
Affected examinees must register with the CSC Regional or Field Office nearest them from 16 December 2019 to 15 January 2020.

The Civil Service Commission (CSC) reminds government officials and employees to promptly settle and liquidate cash advances (CA) to avoid liability.
This, after the Commission has come out with CSC Resolution No. 1900929 or revised guidelines on the settlement or liquidation of CA, which sets varying penalties based on the nature of offense and existing circumstances.
An Accountable Officer who, after formal demand by the Resident Commission on Audit (COA) Auditor, fully liquidates, settles, or pays the CA within the period stated in the demand letter, with a valid justification and no aggravating circumstances present, shall be absolved of any administrative liability.

The Civil Service Commission suspends work on October 31 in its central and regional offices to give its employees and officials sufficient time to prepare for the observance of All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day on November 1 and 2 (special non-working days). This work suspension, however, will not automatically cancel scheduled CSC activities such as training programs and meetings with other government agencies. Regular operations and services will resume on November 4.
A peaceful observance of All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day to everyone.
