The Civil Service Commission (CSC) has extended its work-from-home (WFH) arrangement after the government decided to continue the pilot implementation of the new Alert Levels System for coronavirus (COVID-19) response in the National Capital Region (NCR) until Oct. 15.
In an advisory, the CSC said the WFH arrangement shall continue to be implemented in the CSC Central Office, CSC National Capital Region, and CSC Regional Office IV Headquarters.
The WFH arrangement shall also continue to subsist in other CSC offices under ECQ or MECQ for the duration of their quarantine classification, it added.
“In this regard, CSC clients are advised to use online services on said dates in transacting with the above mentioned offices,” read the advisory posted on CSC Facebook page.
The Commission advised clients requesting for the services of the CSC Integrated Records Management Office (IRMO) and Office for Legal Affairs (OLA) to continue transacting business online through the Online Registration, Appointment and Scheduling System (ORAS) at https://services.csc.gov.ph.
“Clients who are scheduled to be at the CSC Central Office to pick-up their requested documents on the said period are instructed to wait for further advisory on the rescheduling of the pick-up of requested documents,” it said.
Documents or printed communications, including mail deliveries from couriers and postal services, shall still be received through a dropbox placed at the CSC Main Entrance.
The CSC security guard on duty shall facilitate the recording of all documents submitted through the dropbox and ensure the safety of said documents.
The government decided to retain the implementation of the Alert Level System 4 in the NCR from Oct. 1 to 15.
