GENERAL SANTOS CITY, Dec. 12 (PNA) – Employees of the provincial government of South Cotabato are set to receive an additional bonus of P20,000 this month as productivity enhancement incentive. | |||
South Cotabato Gov. Arthur Pingoy Jr. said the incentive was based on the accumulated savings of the local government from its budget for this year. | |||
He said the P20,000 additional bonus will only be given to regular employees of the provincial government but added that the contractual or job-order workers will also be getting a reasonable cash gift. | |||
Pingoy noted that the actual amount appropriated for the regular employees’ incentive was more than P20,000 but the local government slashed a portion of it to accommodate the contractual and job-order workers. | |||
“In the spirit of Christmas, we deemed it appropriate to share our cash gift with the non-regular workers since they’ve been also working hard just like the rest of us,” the governor said. | |||
He said the incentive will be released before December 23, in time for the local government’s Christmas party. | |||
Last year, the provincial government granted P21,000 as extra cash gift for all its 955 regular employees but only P18,000 was released as it allotted the slashed P3,000 for the incentives of the more than 600 contractual and job-order workers. | |||
Among those who benefited from such scheme were the local government-paid teachers, who received a cash gift of P5,000 each. | |||
