13. HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF PHILIPPINE
CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION
Historically, the Philippine civil service traces its roots a hundred years
ago, when the Americans, who then wielded and exercised political
sovereignty over the country by virtue of their having annexed the
Philippines under the Treaty of Paris, installed a civil service system
patterned after their own. As the Americans endeavored to cultivate an
administrative culture based on the ethos of professionalism and
competence, they established an entity entrusted with the protection and
safeguard of meritocracy in the Philippine bureaucracy. Known as the
Civil Service Board, but later reorganized into a Bureau, its main tasks
involved the administration of civil service examinations, and the
promulgation of standards for appointment in the government service.
14. HISTORY OF THE PHILIPPINE CIVIL
SERVICE
The Philippine Civil Service was
established in 1900 by the Second
Philippine Commission during the
American colonial rule. Under the
leadership of American William Howard
Taft, the Second Philippine
Commission passed a law, Public Law
No. 5, on the establishment of a system
to secure an efficient civil service in the
country on March 16, 1900

Howard Taft, Bernard Moses, and Luke Wright.

15. Civil service system in the Philippines was formally established
under Public Law No. 5 ("An Act for the Establishment and
Maintenance of Our Efficient and Honest Civil Service in the
Philippine Island") in 1900 by the Second Philippine Commission.
A Civil Service Board was created composed of a Chairman, a
Secretary and a Chief Examiner. The Board administered civil
service examinations and set standards for appointment in
government service. It was reorganized into a Bureau in 1905.
1935 Philippine Constitution firmly established the merit system
as the basis for employment in government. The following years
also witnessed the expansion of the Bureau’s jurisdiction to
include the three branches of government: the national
government, local government and government corporation
16. Republic Act 2260, otherwise known as the Civil Service Law,
was enacted. This was the first integral law on the Philippine
bureaucracy, superseding the scattered administrative orders
relative to government personnel administration issued since
1900. This Act converted the Bureau of Civil Service into the
Civil Service Commission with department status
Presidential Decree No. 807 (The Civil Service Decree of the
Philippines) redefined the role of the Commission as the central
personnel agency of government. Its present mandate is
derived from Article IX-B of the 1987 Constitution which was
given effect through Book V of Executive Order No. 292 (The
1987 Administrative Code).
17. The Code essentially reiterates existing principles and policies in
the administration of the bureaucracy and recognizes, for the
first time, the right of government employees to self organization
and collective negotiations under the framework of the 1987
Constitution.
The Philippine Civil Service has undergone a great number of
reforms in terms of structure, size, leadership, position
classification, and pay scheme, among others, under the
management and regulation of the CSC. Presently, CSC’s
mandate is based on Executive Order No. 292 or the Revised
Administrative Code of 1987.
18. Through the years, the CSC has initiated various programs and
issued policies towards building a highly competent, credible,
and motivated bureaucracy. Its latest agenda is to elevate itself
as “Asia’s leading center of excellence for strategic human
resource and organization development by 2030” and to make a
lingkod bayani out of every civil servant. “Lingkod bayani” is a
play on the terms “lingkod bayan” (public servant) and “bayani”
(hero), thus associating state workers with their capacity to be
heroes in their own right. The CSC manages and develops the
bureaucracy’s most important resource—its people—through five
HR initiatives:
19. HUMAN RESOURCES initiatives
Recruitment
Hiring of high-performing, competent, and credible civil
servants through the Competency-Based Recruitment and
Qualification Standards (CBRQS);
Performance Management
Performance review and appraisal through the Strategic
Performance Management System (SPMS);
HR Coaching
Coaching to improve employee performance, as well as develop
leadership skills of supervisors and managers;
20. HUMAN RESOURCES initiatives
Learning and Development
Direct training and personnel development interventions in the
areas of governance and leadership, human resource and
organizational development, public service reforms, and values
and culture building through the Civil Service Institute; and
Agency Accreditation
Accreditation of agencies for the establishment of their own
human resource management systems and standards through
the Program to Institutionalize Meritocracy and Excellence in
Human Resource Management (PRIME-HRM).
22. CAREER SERVICE
a.Open career positions for appointment which prior qualification in an
appropriate examination is required.
b.Closed career positions which are scientific and highly technical in nature
these include the faculty members of state and colleges and universities,
scientific and technical positions among others.
c.Career Executive Service, namely: department secretary, undersectary,

55. More than half of the civil
servant population in
Cambodia and Laos are
male. In Thailand, the male
population is only slightly
higher than the female
population. In the Philippines,
more women are in the civil
service than men.
57. EMPLOYMENT
The main qualifications cited as basic requirements for eligibility
to become a civil servant in the countries studied include
nationality, the age requirement, education, physical and mental
capabilities, experience, training and professional eligibility.
One of the basic qualifications for employment in government in
Cambodia, the Philippines and Thailand is nationality.
Two countries, Cambodia and Thailand, have a minimum age
requirement. In both countries, one must be at least eighteen
years of age.
In three of the countries studied, specifically in Laos, the
Philippines and Thailand, the recruitment system is
decentralized.
58. PAY RANGES
All of the six countries studied had existing pay structures / wage
scales on which they base the pay of the civil servants. The pay
structures correspond to different factors, such as the salary
grades indicated in their specific schemes, job classifications,
current levels / rank of the civil servant in the pay structure.
In Indonesia, seniority is also a consideration. Aside from their
base wage, civil servants also receive allowances, which
depend, not only on their level in the pay structure, but on the
function of their jobs as well. In Laos, the government does not
have a government wide job classification system. It allows
individual ministries to develop their own system.
59. BENEFITS
In the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand, the employees are
also entitled to non-financial benefits such as leave benefits
(vacation, sick / medical leave, maternity and study leaves). In
the Philippines and Singapore, aside from maternity leave, civil
servants may apply for paternity leave.
Singapore grants childcare leave, marriage leave (3 days) and
unrecorded leave. In Thailand, civil servants may also avail
themselves of religious and military leave. In these countries,
civil servants also enjoy health insurance, disability and housing
loan benefits.
60. RETIREMENT
There are compulsory ages for retirement in Cambodia, Laos, the
Philippines and Thailand. However the age requirements vary between 55
to 65 years old.
In Cambodia, the higher the educational attainment, the more years of
service are required. In the Philippines, the compulsory age for retirement
for uniformed personnel – police and the military – is 55. For civilian
employees, the compulsory retirement age is 65. In Laos, the compulsory
age requirement depends on the gender. Females are required to retire by
the age of 55, while the males can only retire by the age of 60.
Civil servants must render a minimum number of years of service to be
eligible for retirement benefits. In Cambodia and Thailand, civil servants
are required to render at least 25 years to receive retirement benefits. In
Laos, they are required to render at least 30 years of service.
61. WORKING HOURS
In Cambodia and in the Philippines,
civil servants are required to render
eight (8) hours of work per day. In
the Philippines, it is exclusive of time
for lunch. In Thailand, civil servants
only have to accomplish 7 hours a
day.
62. CONCLUDING NOTES
QUOTED from the report of: Ms. Corazon Alma G. de Leon, Former
Chairman Philippine Civil Service Commission (1995-2001)
The massive developments that are now taking place and
transforming the face of human society only serve to emphasize the
fundamental point that administrative reform should not be a one-shot
deal but rather a continuing endeavor. Thus, it is incumbent upon the
Philippine Civil service Commission to ceaselessly push through with
its innovation. It is only in doing so will it be able to secure to the
Filipino people the envisioned Philippine civil service of the 21st
century.
63. News on the Philippine Civil Service
