EMERGENCY LEAVE
“Civil servants may avail of the special emergency leave,”
said Civil Service Commission (CSC) Chairman Francisco T. Duque III in light of
the recent typhoon Glenda which left seven provinces under state of calamity.
CSC Resolution No. 1200289 issued on February 8, 2012,
grants a five-day special emergency leave to government workers directly
affected by natural disasters, specifically to those who are stranded in
affected areas, suffering from disease/illness caused by natural
calamity/disaster, taking care of immediate family members affected by natural
calamity/disaster, or in need of urgent repair and clean-up of damaged houses.
The
special emergency leave can be applied for five straight working days or
on staggered basis and will not be
deducted from the employee’s leave credits.
It may
be availed of by the affected government employees within 30 days from the
first day of calamity declaration by proper government authorities.
The CSC
policy orders heads of offices to take full responsibility in granting special
emergency leave and in verifying the employee’s eligibility to avail of such.
In doing so, heads of offices may validate the place of residence of the
affected employee based on latest
available records, or verify if the place of residence is covered in the
declaration of calamity area, among others.
