In an Advisory issued on 10 December 2021, the CSC enjoined all government agencies and their officials and employees to support and volunteer for the second phase of the “Bayanihan, Bakunahan National COVID-19 Vaccination Days” (NVD II) on 15 to 17 December 2021 as health screeners, vaccinators, post-vaccination monitors, registration personnel, encoders, data consolidators, and health educators.

Pursuant to Republic Act No. 11525 and Proclamation No. 1253 dated 24 November 2021, the National Government through the Department of Health (DOH) and the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG), in cooperation with the National Task Force (NTF) Against COVID-19, conducted the first round of the “Bayanihan, Bakunahan National COVID-19 Vaccination” on 29 November to 3 December 2021, which successfully vaccinated nearly ten (10) million Filipinos against COVID-19.

In a year-end message to civil servants, Civil Service Commission (CSC) Chairperson Alicia dela Rosa-Bala highlighted the sacrifices of civil servants amid the pandemic and thanked them for their service.

She said that civil servants continued to face challenges this year. “Nananatili ang epekto ng pandemya habang patuloy na umaasa ang taumbayan sa ating serbisyo. Marami din ang sakripisyo ng serbisyo sibil—hindi natin makakalimutan ang lahat ng ating kasamahan, ang mga nag-alay ng buhay para sa bayan. Lahat tayo ay nakaranas ng pagkawala ng kasamahan sa trabaho, kapamilya, at kaibigan.”

The Civil Service Commission (CSC) reminded government employees to keep yearend and holiday festivities safe and simple as the nation continues to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic.

CSC Chairperson Alicia dela Rosa-Bala said that, while the country is still at low-risk classification, the threats brought by the pandemic continue to exist especially with the emergence of the B.1.1.529 variant or Omicron variant.

The Civil Service Commission (CSC) urged government employees to be vigilant about their behavior as it reminded them on the stricter rules governing sexual harassment.
