QUEZON CITY -- The Civil Service Commission leads the nationwide celebration of the 121st Philippine Civil Service Anniversary (PCSA) in September.
PCSA is an annual celebration to commemorate the establishment of the civil service in the country by virtue of Public Law No. 5 (An Act for the Establishment and Maintenance of an Efficient and Honest Civil Service in the Philippine Islands) issued on 19 September 1900. This is also pursuant to Presidential Proclamation No. 1050, s. 1997 declaring the month of September as the Civil Service Month.
CSC introduced a 10-year overarching theme, Transforming Public Service in the Next Decade: Honing Agile and Future-Ready Servant-Heroes, reflecting the path the civil service has to take to build on the gains of last year’s digital transformation efforts in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the role of HR in building a competent and credible workforce in the new normal.
Aside from kicking off the PCSA and promoting the activities, the media briefing hopes to showcase the current initiatives of government agencies in line with the topics of resilience, innovation, and future-readiness.
