Sarrat, Ilocos Norte—Town mayor Remigio Medrano guaranteed the distribution of loyalty cash award (LCA) for all municipal government employees here.
Mr. Medrano said all Sarrat government employees will receive the cash award before the end of October.
The municipal government allocated at least PHP 400,000 for the said award. This is based on Commission on Audit (COA) Circular No. 2013-003.
As per the circular order the cash award is dependent on the years of service rendered in a local government unit (LGU) and detailed as follows:
10th year from P5,000.00 to P10,000.00; 15th year from P2,500.00 to P5,000.00; 20th year - from P2,500.00 to P5,000.00; 25th year - from P2,500.00 to P5,000.00; 30th year - from P2,500.00 to P5,000.00; 35th year - from P2,500.00 to P5,000.00; 40th year - from P2,500.00to P5,000.00
“This is good enough in acknowledging their [government employees] efforts and sacrifices on their service for the people, yet, they should be rest-assured to do their job accordingly of what they’d pledged on their oath of office,” said Mr. Medrano. (Bernard Ver)
