EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 647 -
GRANTING OF SALARY ADJUSTMENT TO OFFICIALS AND EMPLOYEES OF THE BUREAU
OF CUSTOMS
WHEREAS, having expected that the
year 1980 would be a lean year in so far as collection sources are
concerned, due to worldwide economic instability, the Bureau of Customs
has redoubled its collection efforts through intensifying the
heightening its search for untapped collection sources thus making the
collection machinery more efficient and effective; Since 19.07.98.
WHEREAS, in view of this collective effort, the Bureau has overshot its
target by P532,534,511.59 or 4.72 percent and has even exceeded the
collection level in 1979 by P899,749,824.59 or 8.26 percent;
WHEREAS, in order to give the Bureau’s personnel commensurate
incentives after having exerted their optimum efficiency to bring out a
commendable output, there is a need to grant salary increase in
pursuance of the constitutional mandate calling for the adoption of
measures to promote morale and the highest degree of responsibility,
integrity, loyalty, efficiency and professionalism;
WHEREAS, the Bureau’s contribution to the economic development and
social progress of the country can never be underrated as a major
revenue-collecting agency performing a function which is sensitive in
nature, thus duly recognized as a special entity by the government
sector itself through P.D. Nos. 689 and 985 and in pursuance thereto,
the Bureau’s salary gap with other government agencies must be
maintained;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Executive Order No. 594 adopting the policy of
using the prevailing level of consumption in private industry in the
country as the basis of compensation of government personnel, a further
upward revision of the Bureau’s salary rates is needed to make them at
par with their counterparts in the private industry and with other
government agencies of the same category which have been granted
special salary adjustments recently;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FERDINAND E. MARCOS, President and Prime Minister of
the Philippines by virtue of the power vested in me by law do hereby
order the implementation of a ten per cent (10%) salary adjustment
effective January 1, 1981 to officers and employees of the Bureau of
Customs. The salary adjustment covered by this Executive Order shall be
drawn from the savings of the said Bureau and/or Salary Adjustment Fund
in CY 1981 General Appropriation Act.
Done in the City of Manila,
this 3rd day of February, nineteen hundred and eighty-one.
