Provincial Administrator Rayfrando Diaz II said their documents are being processed to enable them to receive their salaries until June 30.
Twenty-six are from La Castellana town, 10 from La Carlota City, and five from Bago City.
This initiative is part of ongoing efforts to support the community, with the goal of providing livelihood assistance until the situation stabilizes, Diaz said.
The provincial government has established community kitchens in various evacuation centers.
Concerned local government units (LGUs) maintain them by providing food support for evacuees and camp personnel.
Diaz said they are closely monitoring the Kanlaon situation as well as the food for evacuees.
