President Ferdinand &lsquo;Bongbong&rsquo; Marcos Jr. has granted one-time gratuity pay to employees under the scheme of the contract of service (COS) and job order (JO).&nbsp;
Under Administrative Order no. 3 dated Dec. 23, the President stated that COS and JO employees who rendered at least 4 months of service as of Dec. 15, 2022, and whose contracts are still effective as of the same date, will be granted Php 5,000 one-time gratuity pay.&nbsp;
&ldquo;Granting a year-end gratuity pay to COS and JO employees is a well-deserved recognition of their hard work in implementing programs, projects, and activities and pivotal role in the delivery of government services amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and present socio-economic challenge,&rdquo; the order reads.
