Good day! Please be informed that under Section 9, Rule IV of the Omnibus Rules on Appointments and Other Human Resource Actions, casual appointment is defined as follows:

"g. Casual — an appointment issued only for essential and necessary services where there are not enough regular staff to meet the demands of the service and for emergency cases and intermittent period not to exceed one year.

Employees under casual appointment must meet the education, training and experience requirements of the positions as proposed by the respective Agency Heads and approved by the Commission. Pending the submission and approval of the agency qualification standards, the qualification requirements provided under the CSC Qualification Standards Manual shall be used as bases in the attestation of these casual appointments.

Eligibility is not required for appointment, except those whose duties involve the practice of a profession regulated by the Philippine Bar/Board or special laws and/or require licenses such as those positions listed under Category IV of CSC MC No. 11, s. 1996, as amended, but preference should be given to civil service eligibles.

In no case shall a casual appointment be issued to fill a vacant plantilla position or a casual employee perform the duties and responsibilities of the vacant plantilla position.

Employees under contractual or casual appointment are entitled to the same benefits enjoyed by regular employees."

Based on the above that contractual/casuals are entitles to benefits being enjoyed by regular employees (ORAOHRA 2017), does it mean that they are also entitled to grant of step increment due to length of service being enjoyed by regular employees?
Per CSC DBM Joint Circular No. 1 s. 2012, contractual/casuals are excluded from the grant of step increment due to length of service.
Thank u.
