To evaluate the city government employees behavior and accomplishments for an improved performance and productivity in public service, the office of the Human Resource and Management required for the submission of an Agency Performance Evaluation System or PES by all permanent, casual and regular job-order employees.
The Civil Service Commission through Memorandum Circular No.25, s.1999, Resolution No.992650 requires for the submission of PES by all local government units. According to CGDH I, Hazel A Lebanan,MM, the evalaution is indeed beneficial as it improves employees performances helping them to understand better their post achievements, improves efficiency in work and provides information on employees training and development needs. Also PES is also beneficial to the LGU as it provides systematic judgment for employees salary increase, promotion, transfer and termination. It will also be the basis for coaching and counseling of employees. The Performance Evaluation Review Committee or PERC, chaired by City Mayor Peter B. Miguel, will act upon the data submitted for appropriate actions and interventions.
During the HR Focal Persons meeting held last January 7, City Mayor Peter B. Miguel challenged all employees to get rid of the old practices and consider the new standards in public service. He emphasized that each employee has to plan his/her activities and targets for an efficient result. “As employees, go back to the basics, focus on your job and everything else follows. Create a culture extending productive hours and have enthusiasm in work,” PBM said. “Be in love with your clients momentarily. Have an eye, ears and emotion contact with them,” he further said. Before he ended his speech, he cited the city’s sister city Valenzuela saying that Valenzuela employees would always aim to have things done before the day ends and would always strive for excellence.
