July - September 2011 CES News
ED Allones graces REDIRAS general assembly
CESB Executive Director Maria
Anthonette V. Allones, CESO I,
graced the general assembly of
the Regional Directors Association
(REDIRAS), a regional chapter of
the National Union of Career
Executive Service Off icers
(NUCESO) held at the DILG
Regional Office V on September 8,
2011.
ED Allones narrated to the
participants the historical transfor-
mation of the Career Executive
Service (CES) and its tradition
of competence, excellence, and
service. She reiterated the statement
of a recognized CES paragon and
former CESB Executive Director
Jose P. De Jesus that the CES is
elitist and its elitism is grounded on
meritocracy. “A CESO is indeed
the cream of the crop and definitely
a cut above the rest”, she added.
ED Allones also presented the
competency-based CES Talent
Management Framework and cited
the CES core competencies. She
discussed the rigorous process of
recruiting, refreshing and retaining
CES talents. She enumerated the
CESB core training offerings and
Atty. Maria Anthonette V. Allones, CESO I, talks about CESB core programs,
policy reforms and the CES tradition of competence, excellence and service.
CESB-accredited training programs
that CESOs and third level eligibles
could attend to and explained as
well other pertinent policies on
eligibility and rank appointment.
She also took the opportunity to
acknowledge the ability of CESOs
to provide continuity amidst change
and stability particularly in times of
uncertainties. She regarded this as
one of the many reasons to say,
“Taas noo, CESO!” ED Allones
proudly announced the CESB’s
laudable effort to further the
awareness of ICT for development
in the Philippines which was
recognized by the United Nations
Asian and Pacific Training Centre
for Information and Communica-
tions Technology for Development
(UN-APCICT) during the 2nd
UN-APCICT Annual Partners’
Meeting held in South Korea on
November last year. In 2009,
CESB was also recognized as the
Most Outstanding Accounting
Office for adopting centralized
accounting system.
ED Allones concluded her talk
by challenging the members of
REDIRAS to continue to effect
change where it is needed, expertise
where it is missing and leadership
where it is wanting.

THE PUBLIC MANAGER
July - September 2011 CES News
CESB commends Sec. De Lima for issuing
DOJ Department Circular No. 20
The Career Executive Service
Board (CESB) through Resolution
No. 950 s. 2011 commended
Department of Justice (DOJ)
Secretary Leila M. De Lima for
her firm recognition and adherence
to civil service rules in the recruit-
ment, appointment, transfer and
promotion of personnel in the DOJ
with the issuance of Department
Circular No. 20 s. 2011.
Said Circular explicitly pro-
vided, among others, that in order
to professionalize the Department,
employment and career advance-
ment in the government service
shall be based on merit and fitness.
It further stated that qualification,
track record, work experience and
integrity of the applicant are para-
mount and must always be the basis
for the selection, hiring and promo-
tion of personnel. Thus, endorse-
ments from public personalities in
employment application, promotion
and transfer are not encouraged and
no preferential treatment shall be
accorded to applications supported
by such endorsements.
The CESB recognizes that one
of the challenges in modern govern-
ance is the politicization of the third
level where unqualified officials are
appointed to the third level and/ or
appointment is made in disregard of
pertinent civil service rules and
regulations that led to the perpetua-
tion of the “spoils system” in the
appointment process. The CESB
shares the mandate of the above
circular in recognizing the promo-
tion of professionalism and up-
holding merit and fitness not just
in the Career Executive Service
(CES) but in the government
service as a whole. Likewise, it
vows to continue its collaborative
efforts with Secretary De Lima
to strengthen careerism in the
government service.
CESB clarifies the coverage of the CES
Who’s in and who’s out?
The CESB Governing Board, in
its June 14, 2011 meeting, issued a
resolution clarifying the positions
covered under the Career Executive
Service (CES).
CESB Resolution No. 945 based
its clarification on the Administra-
tive Code of 1987, the Integrated
Reorganization Plan of 1972, CESB
Memorandum Circular No. 3 of
2009 and the Supreme Court ruling
in the case of PCSO vs. CSC, G.R.
Nos. 185766 and 185767.
Legal Basis The Integrated Reorganization
Plan of 1972 created the CES
to “form a continuing pool of
well-selected and development-
oriented career administrators
who shall provide competent and
faithful service”. The same law
provided for the establishment of
the Career Executive Service
Board (CESB) to “promulgate
rules, standards and procedures on
the selection, classification, com-
pensation and career development
of members of the CES.”
The CESB has since issued
various resolutions to clarify the
coverage of the CES and to estab-
lish criteria on classifying positions
that belong to the CES.
Obviously CES In 2010, the Supreme Court
ruled that the coverage of the
CES is limited to positions that
require the appointment of the
President of the Philippines.
These positions are expressly
enumerated under the Administra-
tive Code of 1987. They are, to wit:
Undersecretary, Assistant Secre-
tary, Bureau Director, Assistant
Bureau Director, Regional Director,
Assistant Regional Director, and
Chief of Department Service.
These positions need not be
further classified by the CESB as
they are deemed part of the CES
and are subject to CES rules, stan-
dards and procedures as promul-
gated by the Board.
The Three-Way Test There are cases, however, when
positions occupied by presidential
appointees are not expressly in-
cluded in the nomenclature of posi-
tions under the Administrative
Code of 1987. Such was the case of
officials appointed to the position
of Administrator at the Office of
the Transport Security. Upon the
request of their agency head,
they were placed under the
coverage of the CES when they
were found to have complied
with the three-way criteria provided
by CESB Memorandum Circular
No. 3 of 2009.
CESB Resolution No. 945 now
provides that unless the same
positions are classified or expressly
named under the law, presidential
appointees currently occupying

PMS Executives undergo CESPES Orientation
The Career Executive Service
Board (CESB) in its continuing
effort towards helping government
agencies to comply with the
mandatory use of CESPES con-
ducted a CESPES Orientation at the
Presidential Management Staff
(PMS) on September 7, 2011.
Atty. Arturo M. Lachica, CESO
II, facilitated the workshop. He
focused his discussion on perform-
ance contract which is regarded
by many as the most difficult
part of the CESPES processes,
yet the most critical as it
represents 80% of the over-all
CESPES rating. The performance
contract can be accomplished
through the use of the Performance
Contract and Review Form
(PCRF). It measures and assesses
the ratee’s performance on the
basis of work target commit-
ments established and actually
accomplished and completed by
the ratee.
Director Lachica presented a
sample PCRF to the participants
and explained its essential com-
ponents. One of which is the
Performance Milestones that are
categorized into leading and inno-
vating, and regular and routine.
Milestones pertain to the specific
targets or end outputs that are nego-
tiated between the ratee official and
the superior rater. He gave some
helpful tips as well as the necessary
steps in formulating milestones.
In writing the performance
milestones, Director Lachica
advised the PMS officials to iden-
tify the desired accomplishments
rather than the planned activities.
He presented sample materials in
converting work/ activity into out-
put statements. He also suggested to
look at the overall picture by
identifying outcome goal as out-
lined in the strategic plan, speci-
fying performance goals for your
program area outlined in the per-
formance plans and identifying
performance measures already in
place.
PMS Secretary Julia Andrea
R. Abad-Parker delivered the
closing remark and underscored
the importance of CESPES in
monitoring the work performance
of PMS officials for further
improvement of service delivery
in the bureaucracy. The CESPES
Orientation was attended by the
PMS Management Committee
members, which consist of the
Undersecretaries, Assistant Secre-
taries, Directors as well as Assis-
tant Directors.
Atty. Arturo M. Lachica, CESO II, shares the CESPES issuances and other
pertinent details with third level officials of the Presidential Management Staff.
