Availability and Accessibility of Personnel during Core Working Hours
Pending the release of the enhanced guidelines on the alternative work arrangments (AWA) in the Department and in light of the recent community quarantine classifications, Heads of Offices and personnel are reminded of the following provisions:
1. All DepEd personnel are required to complete the eight (8)-hour workday or the 40-hour workweek regardless of the type of AWA implemented in the respective office/school/CLC.
2. Aligned with item 5.10 of the Civil Service Commission Memorandum Circular No. 18, s. 2020, each office/school/CLC shall ensure that at least one (1) staff is present during the core working hours (8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.) of each workday in order not to prejudice public service delivery. The assigned personnel should be available on-site to receive documents and respond to queries via phone call or walk-in.
3. As a reiteration of Item 16.a.iii of DepEd Order No. 11 s. 2020, Personnel under work-from-home (WFH) arrangement shall make themselves available and accessible during agreed working hours and must be able to respond to directives, requests, and queries through agreed modes of communication with their immediate supervisor and co-workers.
Heads of Offices are requested to meet with their personnel and make the necessary adjustments in the work schedules.
For inquiries or clarifications, please contact the Bureau of Human Resource and Organizational Development - Personnel Division (BHROD-PD) through phone at 02 8633 9345 or email at bhrod.pd@deped.gov.ph.
Please be guided accordingly. Thank you.
