STATEMENT OF THE CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION ON INTERIOR SECRETARY BENJAMIN “BENHUR” ABALOS, JR.’S REQUEST TO POLICE COLONELS AND GENERALS TO TENDER THEIR COURTESY RESIGNATION
The “full Police Colonels and Generals” from whom Secretary Benjamin Abalos, Jr. requested the tender of courtesy resignations are presidential appointees. As such, their appointments to the government service are not attested to by the Civil Service Commission (CSC), and thereby outside the purview of the CSC and its disciplinary jurisdiction.
In order to preserve any final determination of the issue in the proper forum, further comment on the matter may not be appropriate at this time.

“It is with pride that I announce the winners of the Civil Service Commission (CSC) Pagasa Award as these lingkod bayani are considered gems in public service. They belong to that distinct group of government workers who, quietly and without fanfare, pursued their public service mandates with indefatigable commitment, excellence, and integrity, to the extent of putting their lives on the line in the spirit of delivering much needed services, especially in the grassroots.”
This was remarked by CSC Chairperson Karlo A. B. Nograles as he announced the winners of the 2022 Search for Outstanding Government Workers. The annual Search has three categories—the Presidential Lingkod Bayan, the Outstanding Public Officials and Employees or Dangal ng Bayan, and the CSC Pagasa. The latter is conferred on an individual or group of individuals for outstanding contributions that directly benefit more than one department of the government.
One of the recipients of the CSC Pagasa Award is the Community-based Rice Mushroom Production Team of the Bataan Peninsula State University (BPSU). Their initiative uplifted the lives of rice farmers in Bataan by introducing and promoting an integrated farming system approach through mushroom production, vermin composting, and off-season vegetable production using rice straws. The team's research-based technology transfer trainings, capacity building on crop diversification, and entrepreneurial skills development for farmers have significantly improved the latter’s production capacity, productivity, competitiveness, and sustainability.

Requests for Certification of Eligibility or COE is now made more convenient, the Civil Service Commission (CSC) announced.
Civil service eligibles may now request and secure their COE and its authenticated copies in any of CSC’s 16 Regional Offices regardless of their place of examination.
“Mas magiging madali na para sa ating mga kababayan ang pagkuha ng kanilang eligibility records dahil kahit saang CSC Regional Office ay maaari na silang magpunta at mag-request ng COE. Kasama na riyan ang pagkuha ng authenticated copies ng COE,” said CSC Chairperson Karlo Nograles.
This new development comes with the completion of a system called the Internal Civil Service Eligibility Verification System (iCSEVS) approved under CSC Resolution No. 2200677 last 16 December 2022. iCSEVS allows CSC authorized verifiers to easily and quickly verify civil service eligibilities from an integrated database composed of passers of Career Service Pen and Paper Test and Computerized Examinations, and those granted special eligibilities under special laws and CSC issuances.
