In compliance to Proclamation No. 922 signed by President Rodrigo Roa Duterte declaring a State of Public Health Emergency throughout the Philippines and calling for the implementation of urgent, critical measures to contain the spread of COVID-19, the Civil Service Commission (CSC) suspends the conduct of the 15 March 2020 Career Service Examination-Pen and Paper Test (CSE-PPT) nationwide until further notice.

The CS exams was supposed to be held in 66 testing locations nationwide with an estimated total of 293,845 individuals nationwide registered to take the test. Of the figure, an estimated 253,419 will take the Professional Level of exam while an estimated 40,426 will attempt to hurdle the Subprofessional Level. Thus, it is necessary to suspend the exams as a preemptive health measure to mitigate the rise in the number of COVID-19 cases and to support the national and local government units in undertaking appropriate response and measures in a timely manner to curtail and eliminate the COVID-19 threat.

As the nation celebrates National Women’s Month this March, the Civil Service Commission (CSC) called for more women in government service to be recognized for their noteworthy accomplishments.

The CSC, which administers the annual Search for Outstanding Government Workers, said that years of recognizing honor awardees have proven that women can be effective partners in development.

It cited Dr. Agnes Centino, City Government Assistant Department Head I at the Gingoog City Health Office, Misamis Oriental, who was instrumental in championing health programs for infectious diseases, such as malaria, through strategic partnerships, advocacy campaigns, and community engagement.
